thermal generators array ? having 22 of them with constant lava will give you more than 512eu/t ( pumping lava out of the nether )
Whats the best thing to make to power matter fabricator?

Another common way of producing Lava I've seen is with Magma Crucibles full of Netherrack powering Electrical Engines or Magmatic Engines.
Best way to power a matter fabricator?
Surely everyone knows the answer to that is a single IC2 generator?

And then there is Minefactory Reloaded, which is even faster, needs virtually no maintenance, has insanely good yield per farm(even more so when you use good trees), but isn't as good looking. For me, good looking but feeble means feeble. Kind of why http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Tribunal:Ilnori_Faustus]IllnoriFaustus is a man who is Too Stupid to Live.
Also I wish I could use the straight code editor but still also have the BBCode buttons for when I forget specific sections of BBCode.
Also also I had a idea for a Drunken LP and I'm going to do it. Yay Mead!
EDIT: Ugh, I need to set my account to default to the raw code editor. the Rich Text Editor keeps fucking up my tags, and always tries to fuck up my URL tags.
Nuclear
1700 EU/t from a balanced set of 4 reactors.

Hot damn, that's looking awesome. I don't suppose you could somehow make that world file available to me? I want to investigate that setup so badly!
Sure.
Think this is my backup from last night. If anything is off let me know and i'll take a fresh snapshot:

Ultimate pack -- no changes mod/config changes that i recall.
Since each max size boiler provides you around 300 EU/t using power converter (if you have, else just go for steam turbine/magma+thermal gen) having around 8 of them will be enough for most of the tasks. They are only heavy on iron which can be readily obtained from ind. grinder/ ind. blast furnace (with carbonate cell)
The lightning rod is best built at the bedrock level. Because chance of it hit by lightning is measured by the length of iron fence from the lightning rod to the sky, so building all the way from bedrock to 256 will be best.
Nuclear reactor is also great as you will probably have some uranium/plutonium/thorium on hand now. They provide a lot EU even with smallest design. With some investment you can get efficient nuclear reactor. Mark I will be completely safe for usage.
And you may probably want to invest your first few uu-matter for hybrid solar to further boost your output.

I have tried using a variety of methods to produce UU-matter.
Using lava pumped through the nether into an ender tank which powers as many thermal generators as you want is by far the most non-uu matter costly method. I had above two stacks of thermal generators being powered by one pump in the nether, which was fed energy by blaze rods sent to generators by an enderchest which powered 3 electrical engines. The generators can't even consume all the lava pumped out... You have to relocate the pump once every 18 or so hours, but by then you should swap straight over to an array of solars. Start with advanced, and slowly upgrade them to ultimate. Then once you get the supplies, fusion reactor is the end all for power. Nothing competes with a fusion reactor, or four. Four fusion reactors was fun.
