So, would it be worthwhile for me to upgrade my CPU from my current I5/8600K socket 1151 to a i5-11600K socket 1200, if my current CPU is only running at 60% load with DCSW in VR?

Hmm, let me check mine and get back to you.

Yeah no idea what you mean...

It is in the Hornet, the Mustang and The Thunderbolt for me.

Hmm good thing you found it was the AP, flew that mission a dozen times with no issues but I didnt use the AP.

Why are GPUS still so overpriced?

I am wondering the same thing for VR...my GPU runs at 100% load in VR the CPU around 45% andso Im guessing a CPU upgrade to a 1200 socket (from my current 1151) will have little to no effect on VR performance. Too bad if so given the heavy discounts on the 1200 socket CPUs and MOBOs. A GPU upgrade is way out of reach.

Great stuff.

I run a 3 monitor setup, would removing 2 of those monitors increase VR performance?

Where you dudes at online please?

I find the Viking trickier in that the hose is much shorter andso less latitude in position.

My W10 keeps bugging me to go to W11...how is performance in DCSW now with W11 and VR?

+1 for this Oculus user. Also, in VR my CPU is only running at 50% load while the GPU is maxed at 100%...makes me wonder if a CPU upgrade would have ANY effect? Im guessing the GPU is the bottleneck.

Say from an i5 8600K to a i5 11600K? Cheers. Because here's the thing, once (if) multicore support comes to DCSW I wonder if my 8600K might be enough and I see a VR performance boost?

IIRC from 20 years with that sim it might have something to do with the USB devices order list, info over at that forum...IBTL.

I think ED really needs some INTERNAL testers who use VR.

Haven't flown it since the Hornet came, maybe time to have another look.

Nice to hear the Viper manual is being updated, I would like to see some cross-over info like air defense and jamming added to the Hornet manual. MODERATORS: let me know if you need help with proof-reading.

Same with commercial jets on external power, they want to switch to the APU before aligning the IRS and setting up the FMS.

I never did find a solution so have to assume it's an unfixable control board issue.

I am re-evaluating cause I want it to work in VR.

?

Turkeys can’t fly…runs away.

What are the "correct" volume settings for the Hornet, that most closely resemble reality. For example, how much jet rumble should I feel in flight?

Don’t see how you could due to tablet sizes
