  1. Export what? in @markturner1960's case he's in VR, so no need for data to be displayed on the UFC ...sidenote, just checked apparently, with my setup, it does remember lighting settings Display off is persistent
  2. I sincerely doubt your stick is mounted to the closet wall as well ...Can't you place a plank width-wise and tie/chain/bolt that to your desk/setup Hell, maybe a simple 2x4 width-wise against the desk legs might just be enough to block the pedals from moving?
  3. I leave SAP off
  4. All we have to do is give lots of money to everyone that says they're gonna save us and everything will be alright
  5. ...or windows task manager
  6. Yesterday I actually overtook my Phoenix missile Either I was doing Mach 6 and the speedo was broken, or de missile was doing less than mach 0.9 IAS
  7. 2nd hand 9900K gets you a low end current gen MB, is that worth the 5% performance increase over an 8600K? (With the rest of the system still limping along to obsolescence)
  8. I agree, the generational backlog is a dead end Since getting an intel 12th gen requires a new MB anyway, my tip to @sirrah is to start saving up Because by the time you have money for the current End-of-life 14600k, z790, and 4060, with their follow ups on the near horizon, big chance you'll be able to get a 15600k Z890, 5060 for that same money, making a big jump in generations and still have the ability to improve
  9. My 8600k 32gb was stuttery, found DCS took 16gb pagefile, I upgraded +32g, it ran better with 64 gb ram
  10. I'd guess in 1. It depends on the rest of the settings In VR or pancake? I can say I got most things maxed in VR with DLSS quality on the 4080 super, including preload and getting 50 fps
  11. Hi All. Over the past few times flying, it seems my radar can't keep it's target distance Lock the target At a certain point, Target Range Scale appears in the HUD ....then disappears, appears in the HUD, then disappears, appears, then disappears (as does the ASE in the VID) This from whatever distance I acquire target, on to the point the target is well within Aim-9 distance and regardless of the plane or course we both are heading Now I'm uneducated enough on the turkey to accept I'm doing something wrong, but I didn't change my actions, and prior, I never had this problem If I lost TRS, I lost lock, simple as that
  12. I was starting to wonder why sometimes I couldn't keep the turkey out of the drink
  13. Bit the bullet Really thought hard about an XTX Asrock Taichi, but Nvidia never gave me any troubles, so I'll stick with what works Went with an MSI GeForce RTX 4080 Super Gaming X Slim + TT Toughpower GF A3 1200w It's actual 3 slots, not 3 slot bracket+some added cooling shroud (thought about the Inno3d 2-slot, since that wouldn't need any repositioning in my case, but in tests, that seems to perform less than FE and also runs somewhat hotter) Also, some reviews mentioned that the MSI had quite good build quality (PCB wise), 1 cable 12vHpwr also means less clutter Maybe DLSS will exceed my low expectations, it might help a bit in longevity, as for RT,...well, perhaps when playing WH40K or something Thought about getting the Suprim, but put the difference in a Thermal Grizzly Wireview (To take some stress off the cable), and an aftermarket vertical mount The TT PSU, as mentioned: because has the connections, power and dimensions I wanted Hopefully card and psu will arrive tomorrow and we can go through the horror of cable management again
  14. Did my update for the UFC 'Finish' at 99.9% yesterday, got the same "Boot" message, ran another update over it, went to 100%, all seemed fine after that
  15. The slider/dial levers can be set to axis, 3 buttons, Or axis+3 buttons in Simapppro, so if it's possible to 'move' jester selection (I'm in VR, so I use sight) you might be able to
  16. There are no 4080's that exceed 360mm (Not even the Gigabyte Aorus, and that thing is friggin huge) But I got my AIO radiator mounted to the back panel which leaves me less than 300mm clearance for a horizontal mounted card So I either relocate the radiator, or get a 3rd party vertical bracket (The TT37 only allows 2-slot cards to be placed vertically, which would limit it to the 2- slot Inno3d air cooled 4080 or any liquid cooled card that sports a 2-slot bracket)
  17. I mostly got my eye on that one (1200w), mainly because it sports 1 extra 6-pin peripheral connection over the Seasonic I never cared about noise from the PC, worn out fans excluding , my GPU is running 100% fans when playing DCS anyway I got a TT view 37 with an aftermarket PSU shroud, the case is roomy and allows a vertical GPU I know there might be clearance issues for the GPU because of the AIO I use, but I can improvise a GPU mount, the cable pass-through in the case AND the PSU shroud are things I can't work around
  18. Thanks for the feedback all While I could wait for the RTX5 or XTX8, I consider the market for waiting on improved pc parts "chasing the horizon", there will always be next gen 5-series will probably be out just before christmas, sincerely doubt that new generation will be equal in price anyway and my 3060ti is running hard to keep VR performance up Yeah it seems the price is the biggest draw for looking at the XTX, All that power, all that memory, yet only in select titles an advantage Support for/from AMD seems indeed somewhat lackluster, and with latest news, I get a "Gravis Ultrasound" feeling looking at AMD's GPU market/viability (Yes I'm that old) As for the PSU's: I cannot use either in my case, too large, I'm stuck at 150x140mm Basically, I'm seeing the Thermaltake Toughpower GF A3 1050w/1200w or Seasonic Focus 1000w
  19. Sorry, gaat niet passen
  20. Ik geloof niet dat we in het Engels hoeven te communiceren Zal even thuis moeten opmeten of deze in m'n Case kan Welke regio zit je trouwens, misschien dat opsturen niet eens hoeft.
  21. Alright, time to put a little upgrade in the system First issue GPU 7900XTX or 4080 Super XTX Pro's: Cheaper, better rasterization, 50% more Memory, also higher bus-size, 3x8pin powerconnector, DP 2.1 Cons: Inferior RT, high power consumption/temps, slower memorychips, lesser performing FSR The XTX looks better in raw power, but that also comes at more power/temps, it's memory advantage is somewhat negated by its speed, but improved by its bus, then again, that performance seems to be more dependent on which GPU a game developer prefers - 4080s Pro's: Better RT, faster memory, better DLSS, lower power consumption/temps, 1x 16pin connector, good drivers, better game support Cons: Price (entry price = almost top tier XTX), RT is a performance hog, DLSS is a crutch, 12vhpwr is 'sketchy', 16gb memory while 12gb is already minimum, DP 1.4 The 4080s looks more futureproof with RT/DLSS/12vHPWR, but it's 16gb memory won't last as long as the XTX 24gb, it's be a non-issue if not until as little as 18 months ago, did anybody complain about 8Gb cards Nvidia's RT is a generation ahead, but it's a performance killer for all but the 4090 if you want to run decent FPS, and will remain so for a while, advancing as GPU's advance FSR and DLSS are fakers, not inprovers, it's upscaling, not optimizing, neither really tickles my fancy, would be a nice way to 'improve' lower cards, but those can't handle it well I'd rather see that computing power dedicated to the actual image generating ...so, I'm kinda undecided on that one Wonder if anyone has something to add But bigger issue is PSU, I got an 850w currently, but it's not equipped for 3x8pin (or 1x12v), besides that, I got quite a bit of other peripherals asking for juice So I'm aiming at 1000W, 2x8pin MB taps, 4+ peripherals taps and of course power for and/or/either 3x8pins or 1x16pins, roughly around the $200/€200 mark And compared to GPU's, here I can't see the forest from the trees, only 'nice to have' would be if it's compatible with cablemod, but I never 'needed' those cables So I definitely could use some tips for a new PSU
  22. Next patch:
  23. "Depressingly"? You are forgetting that fighter planes are under the bigger family of "Jets", It's a coinage/Neologism, has been since the jet propulsion planes came to be So next to passenger jets, jet (air)liners, jumbo jets, private jets (of which the genericized trademark Lear jet not forgetting), the fighter jet/jet fighter (and bombers) most certainly should be found amongst them You are making it awfully hard for yourself, look up in the sky, it's either a prop plane or a jet, and if it's a jet,... what kind of jet is it?
  24. Shower cap
  25. A dedicated pit better be Module one with a lot buttons, axis and rotaries left and right if you want to use it for various modules Regardless, you'll never achieve 1:1 operation unless it's switching between the F-14 A and B If more generic, I'd see if you can incorporate a keypad (A10 / AH64 tend to use one) and couple of MFD's, or simply a WinWing MIP since that kinda covers everything possible Get (something with) a lever left and right since gears/flaps/hooks can swap places between modules
