Good Day Folks, I need your thoughts on an idea that I had. My PC: MSI B450 Tomahawk mobo AMD Ryzen 5 2600 proc Corsair Vengeance 16 gig RAM MSI RX 5700xt MECH OC vid card Samsung 970 EVO SSD I did have an nVIDIA 2060 Super vid card that ended up being defective and was heating up. I also noted some lag spikes periodically (I thought they were related). I bought the new card yesterday and played last night. Temps only got to 69-70c, but the lag spikes are still there. Could this be my DCS or maybe my proc needs upgrading? Any and all help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Thanks for responding bud. My HOTAS is still on order from the same place. Supposed to ship out on the 20th. We'll see. I will check out your set up. Thanks again.

Hey Guys, Thanks to COVID-19 I can't find anyone with the x56 kit that I want, so I'm using the 360 controller for now. Is there anyone out here that is using this controller for the Hornet that can share with me their setup please or point me in the right direction? I have looked on YT and Google and so far can't seem to find anything. Please help if possible. Thanks much.

Ok, Thank you very much for answering.

Hello, I want to try/buy the F-14 Tomcat but when I go to the checkout it says that it's not Steam compatible and I can't apply any codes for the discounts IE:MOVER. I am not using the Steam edition, so I'm not sure why this is happening. I'm sorry if this is in the incorrect spot, but if someone could help, that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hello All, I hope I'm putting this in the correct place. If not, I apologize. I am currently running an AMD Ryzen 5 2600 3.7g proc and nVidia GEFORCE RTX 2060 Super. I'm experiencing some high temps on my GPU (about 75c) and some very short frame drops once in a while. nVidia says my card is fine. Could my proc be bottlenecking? I'm sorry, I don't understand how all that works just yet. Any and all help appreciated.

There is actually a "renewed" X56 Rhino on Amazon for $194. I guess I can try that. It's Amazon, so if it doesn't work, I can send it back lol. Thanks for the reply.

As it seems that the X56 seems to be sold out EVERYWHERE! Is there another HOTAS someone could recommend that isn't $800? The T.16k is starting to look good lol.

Thanks so much for the replys guys. Would this be a good one for me to start off with? I'm hoping getting a HOTAS will help me be a better pilot (gotta be better than an xbox controller lol) and make the sim more fun. https://tinyurl.com/y8obukbl. Thanks again.

Since budget is an issue for me, I cannot afford the Warthog. If you had the choice between the Thrustmaster T.16000 or one of the Logitech series, which would you choose and why please? I'm very, very new to DCS and am now playing with a controller which is, to say the least disheartening. Any and all help/input is greatly appreciated. Thanks.:helpsmilie:
