mwheeler Posted October 12, 2016 Posted October 12, 2016 So my setup works well for 1.5, but I can't get it running efficiently for 2.0 as it is very laggy even in single player mode (especially when I am near other aircraft). I am going to be buying a new PC specifically for DCS and need some guidance on what people have. I'm just starting my research, but I would like to order it so I have it up and running by the end of the month or the beginning of November if possible. Any help would be great!! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
rrohde Posted October 12, 2016 Posted October 12, 2016 See signature; of course, there are some newer versions of my hardware out by now (the motherboard and CPU come to mind), and my latest upgrade was ditching my 2x GTX 980s for a single GTX 1080.

dburne Posted October 12, 2016 Posted October 12, 2016 I get just over 100 fps over downtown Vegas with my rig with most detail on full. My X79 MB is a little dated but still doing very well, an X99 with similar would do great.

firmek Posted October 13, 2016 Posted October 13, 2016 I wouldn't worry specifically about the DCS 2.0. Just build a new PC suitable for gaming with the latest titles according to your budget. Only thing to consider more specifically for DCS would be getting at least 16GB RAM. F/A-18, F-16, F-14, M-2000C, A-10C, AV-8B, AJS-37 Viggen, F-5E-3, F-86F, MiG-21bis, MiG-15bis, L-39 Albatros, C-101 Aviojet, P-51D, Spitfire LF Mk. IX, Bf 109 4-K, UH-1H, Mi-8, Ka-50, NTTR, Normandy, Persian Gulf... and not enough time to fully enjoy it all
