  1. Yes for sure.. install them all! I had recently to upgrade a 2013 motherboard BIOS as it was unable to recognize the newer RX 580 cards :)
  2. But you can use the second machine as a DCS server to host your missions for Caucasus with no extra cost. It will bring you a increase in performance. Alternative will be to activate "A,B" modules on one computer and "Y,Z" modules on the second computer.... if that could make any sense for you.
  3. Yes, here it is. They boost mining around 5%.
  4. Are you using this PC for some production activities like video editing , or anything else CPU hungry? If not then by all means that processor does not worth 1000 dollars at all. 10/20 cores is something for production computers and will not give any advantage on gaming world for the next 3 to 5 years for sure. Instead you should focus on the highest core speed capable processor with overclocking capabilities, like a 7700k for example. I9 series is a poor response from Intel for the newest AMD Threadripper ... is more like marketing. If you still have too much money to spent ... well is all your option :) !
  5. +1 I would add though that G-sync is good to have only if your FPS is beyond those 144 FPS. But yes 144Hz/27"/1440/G-sync is the best option. I (my son actually) have one... using it and extremely pleased.
  6. 100% percent true !!! Both Nvidia and AMD already have mining dedicated cards, which cannot be used for gaming, just to be sure their market revenues will be future proof. In mining the most important component is the VRAM, while all the functions needed for display are useless. Even the GPU itself is not so critical. So that, the mining cards have no display output and a fraction smaller price comparing to their full features counterparts. Currently best ROI option for mining are RX580 and GTX 1070... Between the two of them RXs are better on raw power, while 1070 can be resaled more easy. Initial rumors said that VEGA cards can mine 3x faster than 580... Now think about how the market would be flooded with used 580 of o price of almost nothing. Would be able AMD to sell any other midtier GPUs? The limit cap stay somewhere in drivers, making it almost impossible to unlock it. Above aspects together with a high power consumption and comparable but still lower performances then Nvidia makes new VEGA cards look already a bit overdue.
  7. They are not good for crypto mining either ... Vega 64 has a max 40MH/s for ETH for a good amount of electric power, while the RX580 has a rate of almost 30MH/s (with some fine tuning ) at a significant lower power consumption. The rumors before were estimating almost double rates then the real ones. Well, this is more like a calculated move from AMD to not let these high-end GPUs to go into mining applications. All in all... nice graphic cards, but a bit late to the party. I am curios how the 2000 series from Nvidia which will debut early next year will perform.
  8. Pilot body can be activated... just check you control bindings. Walking around... well old story but ED never comment on this :). For this I am using Arma3 :))). Actually lately I found myself playing only Arma3 :D.
  9. Win10 knows to work better with an SSD than the win7 so that SSD life is prolongued. There are drivers optimizing SSD on win7 too... but not native with operating system. This is not the only reason.... I am finding 10 much better optimized than 7, despite all voices that are afraid of privacy issues. I do not own any kind of state secrets... so I don't really care. Android users are even more exposed than Windows users :). And of course, optimizations are usually done better on the latest version of software/drivers. You can safely remain on Win7 but I really see no advantages on that... is just my personal view.
  10. For 1080p resolution those 4Gb video ram would be enough. However i still strongly recomending to you the 1070 with 8Gb of video ram. Of course an SSD is mandatory and you have to migrate to windows 10 as well. DCS badly needs an SSD because the ammount of textures to be loaded is prety high. The configurations I was talking earlier were 2 different computers.. but with equivalent components. Both have ASUS gaming motherboards (same price category but different generation) Forget about virtualization on a gaming PC... unless you want to play Tetris, Worms... etc....
  11. Your CPU will bottleneck the 1080Ti. At your configuration best option will be an 1070. I am supporting my affirmation from personal experience on two systems with 4770K and 6770K. Benchmark results are sometime better on the 6770K with 1070 over 4770K with 1080. Overall performances are better on 6770/1070. Both video cards have 8Gb of RAM.
  12. no need of hall sensors on msffb2 as it already have a digital movement sensors. The only potentiometer on it is for Z axis. PS: an the small throttle have potentiometer too... forgot about that one.
  13. You are 4k ready! Check my signature for comparision. But even better, go to 2k 144Hz.
  14. Assuming too much ;) Intel accepted and document it indeed... and this a a valuable information for sure. Don't need to be rude or such dramatic BitMaster. I really appreciate this info as it might impact myself too, but I learned in time to not eat anything it flies. And I am not connected to everything in this world.
  15. Let's wait a bit to see if Intel accept this defect, otherwise is like a pseudo techincal description. Not too much, not to less... just confusing :) .. or trolling. I would not say that can also be an marketing attempt from AMD against Intel... oops i just did it :D And this is just a mastermind command: grep -E 'model|stepping' /proc/cpuinfo | sort -u ...c'mon ... !!! :)
  16. You need them both, but I would start with P51 as it is more polished ... a final product. Spitfire still in early phase for now.

  18. I see no appeal for the new F18 grip. The A10 stick is a lot more ergonomic then the new one. Could be however a option for those searching to build a replica cockpit... otherwise the Virpil and VKB releases are clearly better, even better then the A10.
  19. Cannot access Lockonfiles... they never approved my account and then I just give up requesting it. Any other way to obtain this mod? Thank you.
  20. Later today i will make a movie for G940 gimbal in order to fully understand all its mechanics. Curently just arrived at work. Anyway, there is a important difference between G940 and FFB2 when we are speaking about smooth movement. FFB2 is a lot more smooth due to its multiple reduction steps between motor and gimbal. G940 apply motor power directly on gimbal and for this reason you will feel in your hand how the motor goes from one pole to another ... like the small bounces in your hand.. Also due to lack of demultiplication and to avoid letting to much current on motors, G940 have a small "dead zone" while joystick is in neutral which does not ever permit the player to take the hands offf the stick. This does not apply to MSFFB2 at all.
  21. Hi MetalGear, Please find below several high resolution pcitures from both G940 and MS Sidewinder mechanism. Let me know if you've been able to download them succsefully. https://1drv.ms/u/s!AlRLImVJonHgiMdUdOunEQfMsbz-Xg
  22. Try start the "Logitech Gaming Software" as administrator. It should solve your issue. If this not help be sure that delay is captured during Macro recording.
  23. +1 I have tested DK2 version and I cannot stand more than 1 minute with the headset on my head. VR is future for sure, but these pioneering iteration of headsets still have some important drawbacks. As far as I am concerned I will wait one or two generation more and see how they will evolve.
  24. Everything is fine with your computer. However, using 4K resolution is something that is still somehow a bit over technology limit. So, one of the first steps is to not use antialising at all. Make sure that all games played in 4K have the the antialising on 0. Then start playing with some other options like drawing distance... etc. BTW: your CPU needs to be overcloked ;)
