  1. I am waiting for Mi-8 to go on sale. No way am I paying 50 bucks like I did for the Huey and now its on for 10 bucks. Crazy man.
  2. I'm only missing Mi-8, which I now realize is not on Steam yet.. That's pretty loyal.:joystick:
  3. I would buy it for 50% off, but not full price. I'm choppered out with DCS, no more choppers unless they do Apache or Blackhawk.:thumbup:
  4. That would work, if I knew for sure.
  5. So what about us loyal supporters who have been on board since day one and don't have DCS on Steam? 70% off for Steam users and 0% for long time loyal customers from their download site? Really?
  6. Frugalsworld is back! http://www.frugals-world.com/vbb/forum.php :thumbup:
  7. I am selling it because I have two GTX 580 3Gb and do not need it anymore.
  8. Canada. Warranty is Canadian and is three months in.
  9. Evga GTX 580 1.5 Gb video card. Three months old lightly used. Perfect working order. $400 including shipping or BO.

    2 x GTX 260's

    2 x GTX 260's for sale. $125 for both including shipping. Just the cards, no SLI bridge. Work great. PayPal preferred.
  11. If I have two videocards with an SLI bridge, but SLI is off and I plug the first monitor into the first card and the second monitor into the second card, will the second monitor use the vram of the second card. Is there any advatage to using two cards for two monitors.
  12. Agreed about TIR. Also the bezels bother me greatly in multi monitor setups. Never got used to that. Projector is better for big views IMHO.

    F1 2010

    I don't know what to say dude. I am not a fanboy and I suck at racing, but I never had a crash with 2010. Bug issues yes, but never a crash and it ran great on my rig which is behind yours. I find 2010/11 runs better than CoD and FSX as far as fps is concerned. About even with a-10, everything on highest and 2650 x 1600 res. Don't force any graphics options only use GUI options. 2011 I did have two crashes only but it also runs smoothly. And yes Codemasters did not support 2010 very well.
  14. BMS is free dude. Just get Falcon 4.0. Its awesome and getting better!!! Oh and it has the best DC in sims.:thumbup:
  15. Watch for the fake powered ones. It must have a power brick (good). Some say powered and draw the juice via the USB (bad). Hey Cali, ya never have enough. I keep adding stuff. I use 20 USB ports (on 3x 7 port hubs) for my sim rig and I'm about to use 4 more for my MFD TFT screens in BMS.:helpsmilie: Yes, some joysticks etc don't like USB hubs. My TM stuff turns on and off unless on the board USB ports (or pcie ports).
  16. Well thats all gonna change. Most Falcon drivers are going to rally around the stunning BMS 4.3, you should check it out, its even free. New life for the old master of flight sims.
  17. I agree with that, but they are both SandyBridge. I'm waiting for IvyBridge (March/April), which promise to be WAY faster than any SandyBridge.
  18. Yah, your right on that. It sounds good though. 3 ghz ram LOL
  19. That's what I'm waiting for....Ivybridge. Ivybridge i7 sockets release this March, but the new LGA 2011 will follow for enthusiasts (probably code for expensive LOL). With its PCI-E 3.0 and 22 nm technology, its going to be much faster clock for clock than Sandybridge. It will have double the transistor density of Sandy Bridge, but also support memory speeds up to 2133MHz and base clock overclocking. By overclocking the motherboard makers can offer memory speeds up to 3000MHz.:thumbup: 3 Ghz memory speed, can't wait!

    Tiger Direct

    Damn! I should have waited. I paid nearly $500 bucks for mine.:doh:
  21. Yes you can.:thumbup: The reason I do is because I already have my Cougar setup in CCP and Foxy with no issues and I'm too lazy to re-do it in TARGET for no reason. :beer:
