well it depends on the cost of each card and I see you run 1080P so either card should be fine.. depends on the cost at this point.. I had both

Have you tried contacting Pimax directly?? I have not heard anything but what I did here they were having issues with the panels for the non local dimming.. I think it was a supply issue..

yes it makes perfect sense.. thnx

Hey Thnx for the info. so if I got a better cpu do you think the gpu usage would go up, differnt question that whta I am seeking just wondering now if the usage would increase with a better cpu?

Well, yes I mean in the past I could of swore I was in the 95-99% range but that was a different GPU. I now have a 4070ti so maybe that is why I am so low. But that is not the reason I ask. I am trying to get an overall baseline of what gaming rig playin DCS GPU Usage is at.. I am trying to determine the best settings for when I test my OC and such what a average GPU Usage can be.. I use OCCT and in the standard test I can select the GPU USage and was going to base my usage off of what was averaged out over as many users as I can get to let me know what their usage is.. I mean even if you dont fly DCS any game will do I am just trying to figure out what would be a good real world usage of the gpu can be.. thnx

Hey All, As the title says I am just looking for some info. I would like to know what GPU USage you have during gaming in your heaviest of scenes or MP servers.. If you have a screenshot that will be fine but you just need to tell me what it was when you looked at the GPU Usage.. just gathering metadata on what normal gameplay usage could be.. For me I was getting like 52% GPU Usage according to windows performance monitor.. I could have sworn I seen it higher in the past?

Hey That is good news hope it works forever

Did you use DDU to uninstall the drivers?? also do you get any video glitches during gaming. Also what is the temp of your GPU when playing DCS?

try turning off hotplug device maybe??

IDK, a log file could be helpfull, sysspecs. I have no issues with maintaining above 60FPS and I fly in VR. with wehre I have it set I avg above 80FPS and sometimes on 90FPS, I do not get stutter.

Well it is a good idea if you play on those BIG MP Servers like Contention as they do use alot of RAM. if you are just playing Single player in semi smaller mission it probally is not needed.. Either way only the end user will know if it is worth it or not once they do the upgrade.. but do not expect FPS Increases or the like.. Glad it was worth it for you.. EDIT: Also the best way to know if you need more ram is to play your missions and then check RAM usage..

Well I am sorry but I guess the way it was worded was not correct. but to me and the way it was worded ment that I will not get the Master Caution when doing a cold start. but I was just reporting it as I thought it was broke on the MT.exe that is all.. But if it is how it should be that is not a problem still nice to see some fixes for the Viggen..

This was said in the updae notes. but when I goto do a cold start the master caution still throws a warning upon flicking the 1st switch, is this supposed to happen or not?? Either way it is happening the master caustion still comes on in a cold start? this is the MT.exe thnx

Well that is the thing as there is No effect when on the carrier or taking off from it..

that is not it either.. it is just DCS.LOG..

well Actually we were wondering if there is supposed to be an buttkicker effect when taking off on the carrier?? I played a mission on carrier takeoff but did not feel any rumble and was wondering if the ground roll was supposed to be the carrier takeoff sound effect. It works when I test it just no effect when taking off from a carrier..

Hey A.F., on an unrelated issue I ended up reinstalling Win 10 and when I installed SS the sound was back for the roll on ground effect.. maybe try and uninstall and reinstall the Sim Shaker program. also make sure you have the updated version,. I had gotten a responce from Andre and he asked which screen so I showed him lets see what he says..

this one the green graph line showed. is there supposed to be a catapult launch effect when going down the deck in the buttkicker?? I was just ingame and did not hear one but there should be an effect..

@Andre Hey In the Simshaker program we noticed that Ground Roll is currently broke. it shows in the test screen something is playing but no kicker is engaged. and yes all the other sounds I tested seem to work fine so it is not my buttkicker.. A user noticed there is no effect on takeoff on a carrier so maybe the ground roll was when used to be felt?? Thnx Nephilim

well like I said I did not even see it listed in the simshaker, unles Ground roll is what you heard as I just checked and Ground roll is not creating an effect. it show something is playing but no buttkicker effect?? maybe we should report this to Andre.

Have you checked your RAM during DCS Gameplay to see how much is being used.

Did it work before you started having issues?? I am going to go and test a f14 takeoff and see what mine does with simshaker.. EDIT: I did not see or feel anything for the catapult takeoff in an F14 and simshaker.

ok but I still have no issues 1st load into the game??

hmmm this is wierd I have no such issue even in MP. take under a min. in MP and real quick in SP.. I just tried the F14 freeflight in Cauc. and it took about 15 seconds to loud in.. I have no exclusions in Defender either for anything..

yes that is the best thing to try and balance out what you hear, everybody percieves sound differently DB wise and all.. Your welcome hope it works out for you..
