CarneyUK Posted January 5, 2011 Posted January 5, 2011 I am fed up with Steam and hate having to run it just to play DCSBS. I am looking at getting rid of Steam, and will have to buy a second hand (or brand new if req'd) DCSBS disc set. If I buy it second hand from ebay or something will it cause me problems registering it if it has already been registered?? I will not be purchasing DCSW though Steam! so want both to be able to run without it!! "The sky is not the limit.....it's my playground!!" @paraglidecass
Ninjaofdoom Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 I bought mine on Ebay (guy that bought it originally didnt realize how hardcore it was). Works just fine. Someday we'll look back on all this and plow into a parked car. i7-930 @ 3.8ghz, 6GB Corsair Dominator 1600, EVGA GTX470, OCZ 60GB SSD, TrackIR 5 Pro, Win7 64 And a 46" LCD at 1920x1080 to enjoy the goodness :joystick: :pilotfly:
CarneyUK Posted January 6, 2011 Author Posted January 6, 2011 Nice one! Thanks Ninja. "The sky is not the limit.....it's my playground!!" @paraglidecass
CarneyUK Posted January 6, 2011 Author Posted January 6, 2011 As Steam runs in the background, will I get a few more FPS by not having it running? "The sky is not the limit.....it's my playground!!" @paraglidecass

SirBunker Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 You won't notice any difference even with a low-end system, all Steam will do is eat a dozen megabytes of RAM...
