  1. Sure, you can't really OC these Ryzens like people are used to from Intel but if you want to really squeeze out the last bit of performance through overclocking go with the AORUS Pro, it has slightly better components. There is a WiFi and non WiFi version, just so you know. I think so, too. But better to make sure. I haven't looked into 3200 MHz RAM, I'm getting two modules with 3733 clock. As long as you have the lowest timings for a 3200 module(s) and a good brand you're good to. As for the RGB, I have the impression the manufacturers or dealers want you to buy RGB stuff, these seem to be less expensive somehow. I don't need these either but if they're noticeably or even somewhat cheaper then why not.
  2. Do you think I'm an idiot? 1) He doesn't come across as somebody lovingly fooling his viewers base 2) He explained well and why the XTAL is better in terms of performance and visual clarity, it sounds logical to me 3) He also included a scene with SteamVR for example, where the XTAL is recognized with a native 1440P resolution. Which the Pimax is clearly not. It's simple math to estimate the performance gain you would have from owning a XTAL, the Pimax is rendered at a roughly 50% higher resolution. Even if it's only 30% that's still huge and noticeable ingame, be sure. I'm the last guy you'll find to believe everything people claim on the internet but in this case, how he explained it and underlined it with his videos you can see there must be something right to the XTAL - or better put: wrong with the Pimax. There is a reason this thing is so expensive, kudos to the developers to be able to build something like this.
  3. Checkout SweVivers video on Youtube about it. Edit: As already posted: Just watching this video again I see: The XTAL should perform like 40 to 50% better than the Pimax counterpart, although they have the same resolution on paper. Maybe this is what Falcon meant with everything besides XTAL being a "scam". It performs better and has a lot better visual clarity. If you reduce the additional features the 5000€ XTAL version has, and after some polishing from the engineers side, the price might come down to 3000 or so, which "makes it even more justifiable to buy".
  4. The mid range AM4 boards in this era are very good boards. The ~350 bucks or more boards are only for prestige in my eyes, e.g. for people who want to throw out their money so badly they go buy a high end Ryzen board. Very niche compared to the rest of the market. Personally I will build a 3800X/2080Ti system for the Reverb and Viper before the years end and I will go with the Gigabyte X570 Aorus Pro or Master, the 250€ Pro version most likely. I recommend you the Gigabyte boards for a Ryzen system right now. Go have a look at the X570 Aorus Elite, only around 200 bucks. Let your keyboard use PS2, if it has no connection use an adapter. My printer I haven't always plugged in, only when needed, same with the flight sim controls so doing this would reduce your requirements. I will also buy a separate plugin card to drive my Reverb on a different USB controller than all the other stuff. This is how I will do it and I'll have all the devices you have. Heh, no one does. But the boards are so good and relatively cheap why would somebody not go the newer tech route? It was the same with the NVMe SSDs a while ago.
  5. Better bite the bullet and return it for the longterm. This is a immersion breaker out of the text book don't you think?
  6. Depends on the size of the fans and the design of the case in general.
  7. Have a look into these before you decide and buy: and check his channel out if you want more information. So much for the motherboard. Wait ... Wait: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4036454&postcount=40 You will see improvement, be sure.
  8. See, the chip is faster than stock, boosted 9900K (it's not overclocked I assume). Very sweet news.
  9. I guess people are more concerned some chips not even reaching the advertised clock speed on one core, it differs from motherboard to motherboard. In my case the first core, which is almost as designed for DCS, could hit peak 4.5 or 4.6 and the others 4.1 or 4.2 or whatever as long as it is stable. 4.7 Ryzen 3000 is like ~5.1/5.2 9900K.
  10. Cry girl? lmao. How did he offend you? With saying the retarded word?
  11. As long as you can mount a decent number of case fans you can decide yourself if your case has positive, neutral or negative pressure by mounting them accordingly.
  12. You can bet you want it.
  13. I was wondering where these terms come from and who uses them. Never heard +ve.
  14. I don't know what you mean by +ve air pressure but here: Lian Li Lancool One. Note it has different color versions.
  15. Yes, noticeable. I'm not a ED developer. It's official and not a mod.
  16. I'm building a new system for DCS only before the years end, too. I'm building a 3800X system despite 9900K being like 3-5% faster in single core, go AMD.
  17. Now 9900K but only slightly ahead of the 3900X. Once DCS is running on Vulkan and not DirectX the 3900X. When do you ask? 2 weeks what else?
  18. Your PSU doesn't matter, it's about the motherboards USB power delivery. Post #3469 is about the issue.
  19. Get a PCI card with a seperate (USB) memory controller. Maybe the headsets aren't receiving stable enough electricity from the mainboard USB ports. This is then a hardware issue, not software nor headset.
  20. Depends on what kind of experience you're aiming for ... 1920x1080; 1440p or VR? You gotta tell everyone.
  21. The advertised speed from AMD is the speed which one core can reach at maximum, not all cores. Even when only considering one core, it's not certain you will actually achieve the advertised clock. There are differences on how high the CPU(s) clock depending on the motherboard aswell, not all are the same here.
  22. 1) Buy gear for 5000 bucks or more to have a high realism combat flight simulator. 2) Use swivel chair for checking your six.
  23. Look into binned and pretested Ryzens, there are chips who can achieve stable 4.3 Ghz on all cores for a small uplift in price. And since those were tested running in - you guessed it - Prime, you might even get them higher (and stable). I'd take a pretested and binned 4.3 GHZ 3700X over a "random" 3900X any day. 4.3 all core is really, really rare.
  24. As far as I know the motherboard market for the AM4 socket is quite confusing right now, to keep you from overspending watch this You get very good boards even in 200 to 300 range, the 300+ range often has stuff which is really overkill for what you would do with your system. I'm going with the 210€ Gigabyte Aorus Elite before years end, solid and without the "unnecessary" stuff.
  25. Idea 3 number 1 because you'd giving the middle finger to Intel and Satan approves (price).
