Guest Fury_007 Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 Hmm, let me see. Since A-10C came out I've purchased the following for it; i7-2600k - $330 Asus P8P67 Pro - $180 Hyper 212+ - $30 16GB RAM - $185 GTX 460 1GB - $200 27" Asus Monitor - $320 Intel 40GB SSD - $120 (sold) OCZ 60GB SSD - $119 TOTAL - $1484.00. I'm not done yet either. Plan on doing multi-monitor soon. So will need new video card and two more monitors. Probably another $800.00. Well worth it. Buy a trackir and save yourself about $700.
Madman777 Posted August 23, 2011 Posted August 23, 2011 Buy a trackir and save yourself about $700. I have TrackIR. Even with 3 monitors you still need TrackIR. i7-12700k, 32GB Ram, RTX 3060 12GB, TrackIR 5, Lots of SSD Space, etc etc DCS World - All the cool modules

CDR Spectre Posted August 27, 2011 Posted August 27, 2011 What did it cost me? $1500 for new PC $200 for new vid card and PSU (because I got screwed on the stock one) $60 for the sim $65 for TIR 4 (used on ebay) $85 for rudder pedals (used on ebay) Total so far: $1910 US (not counting the $500 + shipping I'm about to spend on the TM Warthog) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] It's not the fall that gets you. It's the Godawful sudden stop at the end.
