  1. Even if it is overheating it is not the same as an air cooled desktop with a large frame and plenty of cooling, not to mention a 12 inch card or two.
  2. Not to wreck the vibe but tearing is a massive downside. I would downsample for a crisper image and switch vsync on.
  3. Great tips here. I did the take off tutorial tonight and I was like wtf "I steer with the breaks??" so I couldn't control her but managed to get her on the runway. Hadn't a clue about the tail lock and couldn't fly straight down the runway.
  4. The shark is deep and has a steep learning curve. It is a beauty to fly.
  5. Excuse my ignorance but is this so you can have all the gauges on a second monitor?
  6. With a chunky stick it feels like a proper piece if hardware. You can pull back the saturation on the x & y axis to reduce movement. Best of both worlds, fast response, durable feel.
  7. The shark is like driving a massive mining machine in the air! It is heavy, and, it's autopilot is your wingman. It takes allot of familiarisation.
  8. Yes I experience this too. I also feel little power in the brakes, they feel very light and useless.
  9. I hope edge low and slow is a nice step up in eye candy. Love the automated door gunners too!!
  10. The flaps audio could be louder i my view.
  11. I use sli , 2 screens both at 1920 x 1080 and I get between 50 and 100 frames . I get occasional cloud flicker but only occasional so I cannot complain. With one card and ONE screen I get the same fps but as soon as I add a second monitor I drop to 50 on average with one screen. Soooo, if you want multiple monitors then sli IS worth it to have the game running at such a high frame rate, sli is commonly disregarded and I have no idea why because it gives me high frames, higher frames and a second monitor to use as a targeting pod.
  12. I cheekily hide my rudder and stick and gpu boxes away so she doesn't ask any questions.
  13. This is all very exciting. Look how far this sim has come!
  14. Yes sir, when you get your hands on it and get used to the button spread it feels awesome. Even the two stage trigger feels amazing. So glad I took the chance.
  15. Just got he warthog and throttle. All I can say is 'hot damn' it is a savage piece of robust beef. I was using an X52 Pro which is cool but the Warthog feels amazing. Love the 8 way hat switch on the stick for controlling my slew and the ring finger latch on the stick for resetting my track ir. The sheer variety of switches on the the throttle is amazing, switches and buttons everywhere and in saying that the throttle is huge, one has to see it to believe it, everything is so well spaced. Just ordered rudder pedals because you just GOT to have them to improve the immersion factor (not to mention it doesn't have a twist) but who cares it's a really serious piece of gear and I don't need any programming software either. The less running the better I say. If you have been on the fence and I am telling you to splash out if you can afford one, I got it in prep for DCS World 2.
  16. I run sli 970's and they are brilliant.
  17. Well hot damn those are damn near photo realistic.
  18. Ed could use the ilok protection system and do away with licences. In the audio industry licences are downloaded onto iloks (dedicated usb) and as long as the ilok is in the pc you can add remove at your hearts content. I ran out of Black Shark one licence which is 5 years old and as a result was unable to install black shark 2 upgrade. So guess what? I bought black shark 2. Again.
  19. Yes please remove the zoom.
  20. The shark still rocks too!
  21. Hold the weapon release button for 4 seconds when you see manual release on the hud.
  22. I cant imagine downloading so slow. I get about 7 megabytes a second with upc fiber broadband.
  23. Just watched the video . It looks absolutely amazing. Just looks incredible.
