I have 2 sticks of Kingston KVR1333D3N9/4G 4GB 1333MHz DDR3 Non-ECC CL9 DIMM Any good?

If you end up doing this mod could you let us know how you get on please. I'm interested in doing it myself too.

Is there any reason why I couldn't put my ddr3 ram in an intel motherboard? Looks like an i5 3570k is tyre way to go. Do motherboards make much difference? Is there certain ones I should go for?

Works fine on my warthog. Make sure you pull the trigger all the way in to the second switch for vhf otherwise you are using the interphone. I've also found i can't get landing clearance. I think it may have something to do with the huey not having any wheels, with the A10 you only get clearance when the wheels are down.

Ok what about putting in the best quad core I can use with my motherboard? It looks like it would be an AMD phenom 2 x 4 980 3.7 ghz. If I got the black edition I could overclock it to what 4.2 ish ghz. I'd rather not change the board, ram and cpu again. Would that be a good option? It would be alot cheaper too.

It's not just for DCS, I use Arma 3 and CLOD a fair bit too. I've always stuck with AMD and haven't got a clue about intel.

Thank you. Is it worth going for an 8 core? Bigger the better?

Sometimes i'm finding the sim bogging down a bit to around 20fps when thre is a lot going on. I have an amd 955 quad core cpu overclocked to 3.82 ghz and an nvidia gtx 560ti. I can upgrade one or the other and would like to know which one to do first. Is it worth getting an octo core 4.2 ghz cpu or something like a gtx 660ti?

Could we not just have a small symbol in one corner only when autopilot is on? I don't think we really need info about weapon status at all as you can tell what you are firing by the position of the switches. I've turned it off as it gets in the way for me.

Really? I've tried it and they just sit there waiting to get shot.

I've got it mapped to the friction axis on my warthog. It works perfectly for me in the full range.

I know it's a beta and not everything works as it should but will they ever engage targets? I seem to remember a blackhawk's gunners firing at me once in a ka50 so I assume it's possible. Would be great to have a bit of interaction from the rest of the crew.

Pedals are an absolute must for this heli. Every input with the collective or cyclic leads to moving the pedals.

I've got it too and been flying for a few hours. Slowly getting the hang of it, it's alot harder than the ka50 though.

Does it have one on the real thing? I thought the throttle was the twist grip on the collective.

It was already mapped to one of my throttle axis but I don't know what it does apart from reducing engine speed. Also how do you move the m60 door guns? I can switch to the gunners position and fire but the guns won't move.

I've got a phenom 2 955 3.2 ghz BE too. I overclocked mine to 3.8 about 6 months ago and not had any problems at all, I am using an upgraded coolermaster heatsink and fan though. It doesn't give a massive boost but it was well worth doing.

Are we likely to get the version with twin m60 flex guns either side aswell?

Getting back into il2 clod. It's so much better now it's been patched by team fusion.

Some of you lot are so tight. It costs that to go to the cinema with the missus once!

Best if both worlds isn't it. Did you see mine? http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=100130

I totally forgot about viet nam med evac. Even back then there was rain on the windscreen, please say this huey has it.

I wonder if it could somehow be diverted to an unused channel like the rear speakers on a 5.1 soundcard (if they weren't in use).

Apparently not. I asked about this a while ago and was told it couldn't be done. Shame as it would add loads of immersion.

All done and it works really well. I had to get a cheap soundcard with a separate subwoofer output so I could adjust the intensity of the vibrations but it seems pretty good. Shame simvibe isn't avalible for DCS.
