I dont know about the 5900x , but I just switched from 10700k to 5800x3d. Great performance! Especially if you run DCS liberation (so far).

I upgraded from a 10700k to a 5800x3d. Dcs no longer works in vr. I have a version 1 reverb g2 which has issues with am4 chipset (cable is defective and cant provide the adequate signal). Various solutions (usb hub, dongle etc) provided none or partial fixes (e.g. sound going out when working, stops working etc.) Once I get it working I will let you know.

Heya thanks for replies both of you. So far ive got a startech pcie card which did not work(7 14). Got a dongle, did not work (4-1). Found a external powered USB hub did not work (4-1). I think I'll purchase a headset , swap the cables out. Great deal 299?

After scouring forums, looking for a cpu upgrade to 10700k , the 5800X3d seemed like a good option. Boy was I wrong. After whats been 1 week adventure in trying to get my headset to work, I found out that I (along with everyone else who was shipped the early revision headsets) have a defective revision 1 cable that doesnt work on x570 chipsets. HP told me that I need to replace the cable with a revision 2 version, but its out of stock, and I am out of warranty. (I confirmed googling that this will infact fix the issue.) Whats worse is I gave away my old gear and built a rig for someone else. No getting it back. Im now stuck with a non working reverb g2. I have tried different ports, hubs (external powered) dongles etc. I can get it to work sometimes, but lose sound . Also when I do get it to work, I gotta say 5800x3d seems overrated. But I have not done enough testing to confirm this. Not sure if performance was taking a hit because of garbage reverb g2 cable. Never never HP again. I should have known better.

Hi , Im using it in VR (reverb g2) in heavy cpu intensive campaigns like liberation. I use openxr, and openxr toolkits, standalone dcs. I create a server and load the mission into server, then run main dcs to play through it, then upload the results once mission is ended. It uses different cores for the server so I do get a massive boost. Its virtually unplayable otherwise. However , cpu still struggles and bottlnecks . From everything Ive read so far 5800x3d cache seems to solve a ton of problems. BTW thank you for response.

I am thinking about a ryzen 5800X3d . Currently running i7 10700k at 4.8ghz oc but running into alot of cpu-bound while running liberation (even while running a server to take cpu load off). Is there any imrpovement to be had here? (specs - 3090, 64 gigs ram) Thank You!

Mistake. My original post actually is completely incorrect. (switching ports for usb c did nothing). What gave the huge performance boost was infact going from 90 hz to 60 hz in reverb g2 headset display settings. Now I did figure out a few really good tricks which DID work. I measured everything with fpsVR. First off, I had to switch to 60hz refresh. System (10700k and 2080ti) simply cant handle 90 hz in dcs. Otherwise I followed thuds guide and the new stuff on reverb g2 . Boosted computer with oc to cpu and video card which increased benchmark in heaven from 2k to 2.5k. However thuds gets one major thing wrong. It said to set pixel density (in DCS vr settings) to 1.0 , .9 or .8. SET IT TO .5 and INCREASE RESOLUTION IN STEAMVR SETTINGS! (I increased mine to 204%, 4540x4420 per eye). This seems to be the sweet spot for not maxing out GPU and getting chop (in caucus free flight- flying close to trees , buildings). SO MUCH BETTER! I You get smoother performance (measured via fpsVR as well as simply seeing it) and HIGHER resolution doing this. I followed pretty much everything else in thuds G2 guide. Of course a rtx 3080ti will probably blow this away but this works till then.

Hi thank you for responding! Yes the saved games folder is under users : C:\Users\15702\Saved Games\DCS But only has these folders: Config data fxo imageshop kneeboard logs metashaders2 missioneditor missions movies screenshots tracks thats all the folders i have. I read somewhere that inorder to have a mods folder i need combined arms? Could that be the issue? Thank you in advance This is my campaigns folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\DCSWorld\Mods\aircraft\FA-18C\Missions\Campaigns

Installation: 1. Download Dynamic Campaign Engine and extract to "...\Saved Games\DCS\Mods\tech". 2. Download Battle Group Delta campaign and extract to "...\Saved Games\DCS\Mods\tech\DCE\Missions\Campaigns". Make sure that your install directory is 'Saved Games\DCS'. If you need to install it under DCS.OpenBeta: a) Adjust filepath in camp_init.lua from 'Saved Games\DCS to 'Saved Games\DCS.OpenBeta'. b) Edit FirstMission.bat to point to your DCS installation directory c) Run FirstMission.bat Can you please clarify. I do not have a saved games folder. I dont have a DCS\Mods folder. I dont have a Mods\tech folder. This is the closest I got to the mods folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\DCSWorld\Mods There are only 2 folders in my Mods folder : aircraft, terrains. Can someone confirm this mod wont work on the steam version? If i absolutely have to I will move to stand alone version. I pay a little more for stuff on steam but I dont have to hassle with licensing through DCS (Ive lost my a10 warthog and blackshark licenses so I started buying everything through steam).

hi Mbot. Thank you! Just got done with work . Cant wait to try this out!

Hello, what would be the best way to install this mod on steam version?
