  1. Check out micro center.com. Much better prices and a great company. When I bought my parts for my build they were the best priced. Btw, you will love the i5 2500k!
  2. I upgraded to the system you are thinking about. I was also running a Dual core. It is like night and day running A10, and everything else.
  3. So 193 users chose LO, 81 A10. I don't think these numbers are really significant. Where it would be significant if it were the opposite. then LO would need to worry. I think what this poll actually shows is that LO needs to watch to see if there is significant migration from LO to others.
  4. Congrats. I always try it beat her to the UPS truck.
  5. Thanks for the advice. I have the startup, taxi, takeoff down pretty well. Got too frustrating to try anything else until I got the 2nd monitor working. I appreciate the link you provided. Lot of great info there. I did plan on "getting to know" and fly better, am now going to add air refueling to it as well. Then, I think I will be ready to join a squadron out there. BTW, used to be in the Air Force and was in the cockpit for a C141 6 ship refuel sortie. We were 3 of 6 i believe. To have that many planes that close was something else. Was able to get some great pics, but can no longer find them!! Rats!! Be well!!!
  6. Wow, what a sim. My story so far: I purchased this game back when it first came out as a beta from a clip I saw on Reddit. I fell in love instantly. This is the most realistic sim I have ever played. Great job to the creators! I cannot wait to see what you come up with next. Yesterday I was able to land this thing for the first time, and I did it twice. the first time I slid off the runway (why did I think "B" was for brakes?), the second time was a clean landing, but I did manage to blow the tires, BUT, I was on concrete!! Yeah!!! I credit my new success to two things, first, the tutorial on how to set up a dual monitor system was/is invaluable. I finally got it to work and the ability to see the MFCD's on a separate screen add to the flight-ability of this sim, IMHO. The other factor is that I just built a new machine, I5 2500K, Asus MB, 6670 Video, and I got to tell you, the load times are dramatically decreased and there are no lags whatsoever that I can concentrate on the flying and not worry about the machine I am flying it on. Thanks again for a great sim!!!
  7. I am sure (cause i am learning PS as well) that there are better sites to look for help then this one, just saying....
  8. Capitalism, what are you going to do?
  9. Ok, I have to ask a stupid question, what is a bitchin betty?
  10. Then according to all reports for him to get on CNN he needs to go on Dancing with the Stars and compete.
  11. OP, I have had the same experience of the no braking, this video, while very good does not mention it. Can anyone confirm, "W" is the key for braking (non pedal configuration) correct?
  12. OP, thanks for this thread. I have flown sims on and off over the years, but this one is making me want to sink my teeth into it hard. It has a very steep learning curve, and your post is right on for me. I could have written it myself. so, thanks for posting this as I will be following it to learn all I can.
  13. Bless you for doing this. It is nice to see that there are still kind, decent people out there.
  14. Ok, will give it a ride. Thanks ahead of time for your hard work.
  15. Great work and thanks for the profile. I have a weird problem, it worked the first time, but every time since the slider now controls throttle, the throttle does nothing. Any ideas as to what I have done wrong? Thanks!!! Working now...
  16. Agreed, alas, the bank account says no!!!:pilotfly:
  17. IMHO, well worth it. There are some things not up to speed, but certainly giving me tons of fun and the opportunity to play it now.
  18. hey, thanks for asking. I too have been looking for it all day, saw your post, so know you are not alone!!
