They still haven't explained why the avg home user (Home or Pro license) would actually need TPM. Secure Boot doesn't require it. Bitlocker or disk encryption at home, what for? And Windows Hello, again why? "Enhanced security" means nothing, and is not an explanation.

i7-6700k should have PTT. Whether your mobo can enable it is another matter. As someone said, that CPU isn't on the approved list. But it might be by release. They're "evaluating" 7th gen right now.

I would say the situation hasn’t changed enough for Rapid’s advice to be any different. Also, the 3090 isn’t much more than the 3080ti, if you can find any that aren’t tied to stupid bundles.

No control head?

Yes, but DCS in general is CPU bound. That said, If I had an 8600k @ 5.2 ghz, I might just hold out for the upcoming ddr5 stuff.

VRFree (and to a lesser extent, SensoryX) have been at this for ages, with little to show for it.

If this hasn’t changed, it should be ok. But please let us know when you try it. https://forum.virpil.com/index.php?/topic/2773-vpc-helicopter-collective/&do=findComment&comment=27743

Which means the LH Alpha isn't actually on back-order. Good.

So no one here ordered the throttle-less base? Wonder if those have shipped.

Not enough deserts, we still need Afghanistan. Which is more than just a desert.

The LH Alpha is still on backorder, so getting pushed down the queue probably won’t make much difference.

No. Not worth the payoff to implement. This has been covered many times, so you can search if you want more detail.

He means Xbox controller. See the second page in his document.

Direct answer to the thread title.

Doesn’t mean much. People might like to assume UFO means extraterrestrial, but it doesn’t.

At this point, I’ll believe it when I see it. Maybe not even then...

Easy, one has a throttle, the other doesn’t.

The Shark, or one of the others? I went for the Alpha; it should be able to accommodate most of the Apache controls.

Except SLI is nearly useless.

What are you using for screens?

Isn’t that the same video?
