Got it! Thanks to all involved!
-
How come it seems everytime something new comes out it is announced as available and it seems ALMOST everytime you go to get it and you can't? Certainly a disconnect between the PR department and the rubber meets the road department. LOL
Out of Stock for me after I get the newsletter saying it is available!
-
It only automatically checks for updates once a day or so. There should be a shortcut in your start menu called "Update DCS World OpenBeta" which will force an update check.
Did the trick. Thanks a bunch! Been two long years! Now for my worst part of simming..........creating a stick file and muscle memory it! Will the stick file for 1.5 transfer over to 2.0?

Getting back to DCS after a couple of years. I have started 1.5 several times today and it does not update to 1.5.2 as announced on the Newsletter. My current version shows as 1.5.1 so it is updated to the latest, sans 1.5.2 which it doesn't want to.

Brand New, never been used Linsys WRT 1900 AC. Go to the Linksys site for an explanation of it. I am using one. Bought two and forgot to return one when I moved so now can't return it. Only thing it doesn't have is the installation CD. Firmware and Software can be got from the Linksys site and will be latest anyways. I love the one I have.
$220something on Amazon and $250 on Linksys site.
$190 shipped to anywhere in the US. If oversea's.........$200 shipped. Again it is brand new and never used. Wired and Wireless. Comes with everything but the software CD.

The 780Ti is a monster and evolved. The 970 seems to be decent but from what I have observed and read and heard, it suffers from driver issues. I think the 780Ti is best card on the market right now when you balance power with cost.

There is no such thing as OVERKILL on the PSU. Remember, with a PSU, you can play it forward with subsequent upgrades and such. Buy BIG now and you won't have to buy for years and upgrades later, plus you will have no doubt that the PSU might be a problem. 1000 Watts and you are good for years.

I will plug Derek Speare Designs. FANTASTIC customer support and love the products. Have two of his button boxes and they work flawlessly so far (In iRacing only so far). Built to last and no software to mess with besides your sim software to setup using them.

DO NOT skimp on the power supply! Buy a good one with plenty of power and you will not have to buy another for several upgrades. Pay now to save in the long run and also ensure you have enough power.

New NVidia driver out today. 350 something. Haven't checked it out but it was geared to GTA and the Titan X. Running dual Titans myself (not the X though).
-
Windows 7. And though it is said to be free for 10, if it works, don't fix it.
-
See my setup in my Sig block. Save money by not going TITANS and go with a 970 or there abouts. Also can do with 16 GB of RAM. That is if you want a for sure will run DCS. $1200 in my opinion is a "get by with this" amount. If you don't want to just get by and want to build a computer that will be around for a while then go BIG. $2000 is about what you will need for a computer that you can count on for a while. It will cost big in the beginning but save you money in the long run by not having to upgrade all the time. Just my not so humble opinion.

New to flight sims? My advice? RUN and RUN FAR!!!!!
Or bring your wallet and your time. Without those, you will just end up RUNNING and RUNNING FAR!!!
Welcome and good luck.

I have a button box for racing and an early edition of the FLT-1. I highly recommend bof em. The FLT-1 answers that nagging problem of not enuff buttons and switches to up the realism. Get one and you won't look back!

ASUS Maximus VII combined with my Devils Canyon and it ROCKS. I definitely would get the Maximus. OC'd my Devils Canyon to 4.6 stable.
-
I like it. You are gonna cost me a lot of money damn it!
-
Sheesh, thanks Derek. I will do all I can to make sales of these things things. Love my iRacing button box.
-
Yeah as you can guess. I am in too. Got one for racing. Gots to have one for Flight Simming!
-
Derek said the new box will be named the FLT-1 and available at the end of the year. FLT-2 is in development.
-
Just for some background. I race iRacing pretty heavily. Derek Spears Designs makes HIGH QUALITY button boxes and pedals and all sorts of gadgets for racing. He is prototyping a button box for DCS and flight sims in general. I personally vouch for the quality and usability of his items. Very nice peripherals.

FS - EVGA 780ti SuperClock
in For Sale

Hey everyone. I have a EVGA 780ti SuperClock FOR SALE. I bought it from Michael Main at Main Performance Computers in a private deal. I have bought from him several times before and have never been disappointed. I bought the card as used and was told by Michael it was lightly used. I bought it for $300 a couple months ago. Received it, took it out of the static bag and inspected it and put it back in. I bought it as a backup but ended up going a different direction. So I am selling it. It is in fantastic shape. I never installed it or used it. As above, I took it out of the static bag to inspect and put it away as a backup.
Selling price is $225 and that includes shipping for US. I will ship it to you as fast as it will get there for $25.
If you are international, same price and you pay actual shipping and any other costs associated with international shipping. I will work with you via PM to coordinate shipping costs and times to fit in your budget.
No Trades Thank You.
