RAM I have 4 Gb, that means more than WinXP can handle.

Any other opinon? Any other opinon?

Hallo ladies, recently I’m flying Flaming Cliffs 2 with a PC with these specs: Phenom II X4 955 (3.2 ghz) Radeon 4870 512mb Win XP (my old TM HOTAS wants gameport) @ 1920x1080 with all settings at maximum, FPS normally doesn't gets lower than 30. So I’m quite happy. Anyway there is always room for getting better results. I know that FC2 (like DCS Black Shark) is very CPU demanding. Wings of Prey (let’s call it “sim”) with its astonishing graphics run at near solid 60fps (vsync ON) in my system. So it seems that my old 4870 (with only 512mb) can still do a good job with advanced graphics. It seems that the FPS gap between FC2 and WoP is due to CPU usage. So, the question is: when running FLAMING CLIFFS 2, what’s the main bottleneck in my system now? CPU or GPU? I’m thinking about upgrading my old GPU, going for a 6950 (1-2 gb). If I go for a 6950 GPU, will be the 955 CPU a bottleneck in the system? Should I better upgrade CPU or GPU? don’t answer “both “ because it’s an ovious (and expensive) answer : ) Thank you in advance. Black Sheep

22 hours... I've just received the code. Bye BS

Hi, yesterday I received my boxed version of DCS Black Shark. In the evening I installed it on my machine. I have no internet connection at home, so I asked a friend to forward by e-mail my request for activation code, sending my DCS copy serial number and my hardware code. This happened yesterday al 7.00 pm. At this moment I have no reply. Is it normal? How long does activation by e-mail take? Must I do something else to speed up activation procedure? Thanks for help Black Sheep
