Here you go. I'm sure that there are more in depth guides, but this one seems pretty helpful. Hopefully, I will get some time to tackle it this weekend. http://www.clunk.org.uk/forums/overclocking/22106-core-i7-overclocking-guide-beginners.html Markeebo

Thanks to all for your comments. I had a feeling that upgrading the CPU wasn't going to be worth the coin. Glad I popped in over here to get a second opinion. I'm going to take Sarge's advice and OC the 920. I found a really great tutorial and I ordered some aftermarket cooling. Wish me luck! Markeebo

Hi all. I've been contemplating upgrading my CPU. I really didn't want to go to the expense of building a new rig so I bought an SSD and replaced my GTX275 with a 560 Ti. Already running 12GB RAM so any more isn't really going to add performance. I currently have an i7 920 Considering an i7 980 but I'm just not sure if I will get enough performance improvement to justify the coin outlay. Constructive opinions are greatly appreciated.

FWIW..... After liftoff and positive rate, I raise the gear and pitch for 5 deg with the VVI, flight path marker, whatever you care to call it. Accelerating through 180KIAS, I will raise the flaps. IRL, on the civilian side, we climb to a predefined altitude at a predetermined pitch to acceleration alt. (Typically 1000 feet AFE) before cleaning up but I'm not sure how real Hog Drivers execute that. I'm sure that with the stable of knowledgeable blokes that we have here, someone can shed some light upon the acceleration altitude the the USAF uses for the Hog. \ Markeebo

Hey Dragon, when I install both mission and training packs through modman, they still show the previous version. Markeebo
