Good morning, in the next few days i'll change my VGA and change my RAM as well. With these hardware changes i've to deactivate my modules and then reactivate after the upgrade? Or can i leave current activation with no problem? I've read that RAM change cost 6 points and VGA costs no points. So i think i'm fine and i don't need to deactivate anything, but i would ask it to confirm that. Thanks.

i'm already at 2133mhz. My upgrade will be G.Skill 16GB 2400Mhz i think.

My sistem should support up to 2800mhz ddr3... at least regarding documentations of 3th gen I7, but i'm not sure about this.

At this moment i've a ddr3 2133mhz Cl11 memory. For the future 16GB upgrade would be better a 2400mhz CL11 or a simple 1600mhz Cl7? Better to have higher frequencies or lower CL? Or doesn't matter? Because price difference is substantial.

very bad news :( Honestly i had a doubt about only adding or change completely. I think i'll change completely ram with 2x8 brand new.

thank you so much!

Yes, adding another 8gb of ram was already in my plan. Unfortunately i cannot go over 4,1ghz with my cpu because i have a non K version....so only 4,1ghz maximum.

Good afternoon, actually i have a system with the following spec: I7-3770 @ 4,1ghz G-Skills Sniper 8Gb DDR3 2133mhz Asus R9 290X Direct-CU2 4GB ddr5 2 SSD in RAID0 (where DCS is installed) At this moment i run DCS 1.5.7 pretty fine, with high settings, except for: Shadows - flat (my AMD card doesn't like shadows very much) Terrain shadows - flat HDR - off Water - low Trees distance - lowered a bit Cockpit res - 512 every frame All the other settings are maxxed out, with MSAA 4X and AF 16X With these settings i have a solid 60fps@1080p with v-sync, using FC3 or A-10C. With v-sync off i have fps oscillating from 70 to 200 fps, depends the situation and the number of object in the area. My intention is to try DCS 2.1 with Nevada. Do you think, with my configuration, i'll able to run them without serious performance issue? I have this doubt before buying NTTR. Thank you so much for your considerations.
