Flyby Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Hey gang, My system will have to hold me for a while (p4-2.8, 1.5 gig of ddr400 ram)and speed-wise I can run LOMAC/FC fairly well with my BFG 6800 ultra. So since I won't be upgrading the mobo or cpu, or ram for a while, I thought I'd ask those in the know if stepping up to a 512 agp card would help LOMAC any at all. It's been my understanding that LOMAC is cpu-limited, so I suspect the answer to my question is "no". Still, I thought i'd ask, especially since the price of an ATi 512mb card is dropping to within my reach. I think it's the 1950xt or something like that. thanks!

Kuky Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 You canonly benefit on bit better image quality, for example, you can use more AA and AF but other than that... you won't get much frame rate increase because like you said it yourself, LockOn is very CPU dependant. No longer active in DCS... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VMFA-Blaze Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 I think you'll get more bang for your buck by adding another Gig of ram.. That's if its possible with your currant MOBO.. ~S~ Blaze intel Cor i7-6700K ASUS ROG MAX VIII Extreme G.Skill TridentZ Series 32 GB Samsung 850 Pro 1TB SATA II ASUS GTX 1080/DIRECTX 12 Windows 10 PRO Thrustmaster Warthog Oculus Rift VR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's if its possible with your currant MOBO.. ~S~ Blaze I'll have to see what I can do. Hopefully ram prices are down a bit. I already have two sticks of 256mb of Kingston HyperX sitting around. Hard to sell, ya know. Still, more ram must be better for LOMAC, and IL2 (my main two flight sims).
