Increase virtual memory?
-
Hi all, quick question regarding the 18UFC The depth of the unit is 87mm, but mounting it with a WW panel clamp to a desk, how far forward does it come from the desk edge at zero degree angle?

Then I'd need to add a powersource for 2 leds: On-status indicator and 1 latching pushbutton Which seems a bit unnecessary when the board itself can power 5v/100ma

BBI-64

Good day all I got a Leo Bodnar board and it can power leds I want to power the led inside a latching switch (so I can see when it's on) and send the signal through to register the button press, so I don't need a separate pin on the board for led power (which would then also register as a second button press in a Bodnar setup) But when I look around for 4-pole switch wiring, I get this: Which isn't the applicable to my button box since I'm not powering/switching an external load If possible, how do I wire that? Like this?

PRO Flight Rudder Pedals - Do NOT want self centering.
Nightdare replied to MrReynolds's topic in Saitek
If you just bought them, I'd say return and get a rudder where you can remove the springs If you're out of warrantee, screw that sucker open and take out the springs yourself -
Benchmarks that look like a.. won't sell any cards, or even promote the channel showing them Thing is that current raytracing is hardly even utilized to the fullest, and already a big hit even for the better GPU's
-
Every benchmark I see, RT is a performance hit without really noticing a significant image improvement (often having to decrease overall quality settings to keep it playable) So I for one, am not cheering on the race to catch the rainbow
-
That depends if these prices include VAT/shipping Virpil for instance, is €299 without, it arrives at the door for €400

Shame. Browsing through the WW customer support I came across this: Title Do we separately sell products not on sale? Product Descrip Dear customer: for those products not on sale(e.g. PSU), we won’t plan to sell them separately. Sorry for all the inconvenience. ...but then why the addition of the mounting points on the Orion 2? (As is, they're now only a nuisance for mounting with zero added value)
-
cheapest 4080 starts at €1150 here, compared to the cheapest 7900 XTX being €980 Better RT and DLSS and faster memory vs 8g more memory, bigger memory bandwidth ...But I'm running VR so the 4080 doesn't really win on the RT/DLSS, then better be a whole lot better in raw performance

Hydraulic rudder pedal damper vs resistance based damper
Nightdare replied to ChrisIhao's topic in Input Devices
@ChrisIhao Compared to a friction damper, which always applies the same pressure (disregarding wear/temperature), a fluid damper of the type used by Virpil allows a much more 'free' movement, and will only start working beyond a certain threshold (In practice, there can often still be a bit of friction, dependent on how strong you want to set the damping) This shows the working principle: Fluid dampers are much less prone to wear (and thereby work more consistently) and function less intrusively, the variable types are also better to finetune All in all, bar some exceptions/applications, they are superior to mechanical dampers (Which is why you hardly see the latter) -
Looking at the rest of the competitors,.. it doesn't take much to undercut the TM TPR rudder
-
Be careful, YT sluggish behavior was in my case because of my AdBlocker
-
Don't have my hands on it yet But I wouldn't mind getting rid of the oscillation of the pedals, especially when applying uneven braking
-
That's a long way from the $999 MSRP it's presented it with
-
Did you calibrate the axes?
-
@Job There are a few cases known where the anchorplate of the grip has cracked as the fingerlifts themselves are made of the same plastic, I don't know if upping the required power to operate them wil be beneficial
-
@Hiob I don't think it'd be a good idea to put more stress on the fingerlifts with stronger springs
-
Just brainfarting here You could fill it with epoxy and then filing a slot, so it has a more abrupt slope?
-
We'll see in the next few months, luckily I have my vacation allowance in may I have been using Nvidia since forever, but I'm not a fanboy The whole Nvidia 408/70 and 3/4060 debacle left a bit of a bad taste in my mouth and since 4090's will never be in my budget, the 7900XTX seems like a good contender for the 4080 ...depending on what the supers will do price/performance
-
Would be wasted potential if we didn't, the F16 grip doesn't even use that mounting point
-
The Taurus was already a hefty sum, I think it might actually be considered a sales succes, but that'd be if WW marketing dept. didn't have a large market in mind from the start (it certainly got them noticed) I'd figure added motorized throttles are gonna push a price ,that it would sell in such small numbers that it sooner be considered a prestige product Boutique builders can get away with low volumes/high prices, I doubt WW can and remain operational I for one found out too late about the taurus, or I probably would've gotten one, but a V2 as hinted in the teaser will probably become too rich for my blood to just fork out on a throttle
