Hi all. I just started playing DCS recently. I'm currently using my laptop to play the game, and I am under no illusions about this severely limiting my experience, but I'm trying to get the most out of it for now to see how much I like the game (and how much time I have to spend on it).
My current specs are:
i7-9750H CPU
16GB DDR4 2666mhz RAM
GTX1650 GPU (4GB VRAM)
2 x M.2NVMe SSDs (one currently dedicated to DCS)
Short of spending a ridiculous amount to get an external GPU, I'm really limited to upgrading the RAM. I use this computer for CAD drawings, and I'll be upgrading the RAM anyway, but would 64GB total help? If I could get a year before building a new machine, it would be great, but if this isn't going to make that much difference I'll just stick to 32GB and wait.
Currently I'm just doing single player stuff, and I don't mind sticking to that if I have too. There hasn't been many issues so far, but I'm guessing the training missions are less draining on the system than larger stuff. I don't mind turning down the graphics either.
As I'm pretty much limited to RAM upgrades, is this going to make that much of difference?
