[Inseckt]

Hello and welcome:) Nice setup, but be sure to also get a TIR or freetrack equivalent for the full excperience:)

Welcome Dean, good to have you here. :)

Welcome Dean you've come to the right place to learn pretty much everything there is to learn about this sim.

Just a quick question, does the TIR 5 work ok with just one monitor?

I wonder what makes you think TIR would need more than one monitor?.. If you have enough monitors surrounding you won't need TIR at all though. :)

Hi Dean,

 

You just enrolled to the best flight sim ever ( well...Black Shark excepted;) ) The guys on here are serious combat simmers! Most questions will be answered quickly.

 

I run TIR5 with a 27" Dell Ultrasharp...spot on for me.

 

Just wondering why you opted for SLI? You can, of course go for multi monitors with that......:music_whistling: But thats covered elsewhere.

 

 

Cheers.

Hi Accipiter,

The system is one i configured on PC specialist website. Never really had a fast system before, a friend of mine told me to get 2 graphics cards so i just did. I thought if im going to be apart of the most talked about flight sim at my work, then why not have a system that will do that.

 

 

 

Thanks

SLI sounds great, but there's very few games that actually work with it. Most of the ones I play have pretty big issues with it, if it works at all.

 

Thankfully it's easy enough to turn off though. :)

Does DCS work with SLI?

[kylania]

Does DCS work with SLI?

 

Kinda?

Dean, try the SLI and see? For me, I would go with one 560. Thats a nice fast card. I'd only run two if going Multi Monitor, in Nvidia Surround. Two GPU's will not run anything faster (IMHO) and you will still only have 1 GB mem. 1+1=1GB:)

 

But try it out and see!

 

Don't forget Black Shark.....She's a beaut!:thumbup:

 

( If you run FSX forget SLI:D, I dont run any other sims, by the time you become current on both BS and A10..... it takes me all my time to remember each machine!! )
