"Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?" (Joking!!! ) I'm crossing my fingers, eyes, arms, legs and toes that MAC will be released this year.

Hey y'all!!! Thanks for all the great info to my original question!!! Hmmm... What to do??? OK... A few more stupid questions. I have a new PC on order from IBUYPOWER (my current PC has been classified an historic relic by the Smithsonian). And just like 99.5% of the world, by new PC is delayed by new processor and video card shortages. So, I ordered a machine with AMD 5900X and a NVIDIA 3080. I've been reading the formus here and over on the IL-2 site. You computer techies really know how to mess with a civil/environmental engineer's brain pan!!! So since I'm in a "holding pattern" for my new PC: Is the mating of the 5900X and 3080 OK? Is it a matter of personal taste? Should I try to change from the 3080 to an AMD 6800/6800XT? Or maybe wait until the 3080 Ti comes out? Last dumb question fro now... Since I won't have my new PC for awhile (ACK!!!!), if I choose to by modules from ED/DCS (cuz of the sale going on), can I pirchase the modules now and download them to my new PC whenever it shows up? Thanks in advance, y'all!!! g

Hey Tundra... Thanks for the info and advice. I'm heading to Mudspike now. Cheers! g

Hey y'all!!! I'm totally "green" and "tech adverse" to all of this!!! D'OH!!! I just ordered a new PC that will hopefully show up before Christmas. In the meantime I thought I would take advantage of the sale that is going on. I think I'm going to start with Flaming Cliffs 3. But first I have a couple of questions... Can I buy a title(s) now and then download/activate them when my computer shows up? What are the pros/cons between buying a STEAM version vs. the standalone version? About two years ago or so, DCS announced they would be releasing "Modern Air Combat." Has this title been put on the scrapheap? Thanks in advance for your help and cheers!!!
