Cookie Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 (edited) ASUS GTX 680 DirectCU II Top 2GB GDDR5 This. Absolutely this. It´s the one I have running (bought specifically for DCS), and I couldn´t be happier. Runs like hell with everything (and I do mean everything) maxed, comes with great yet simple to use configuration software and is so silent that when I first started it up, I seriously thought at first the fans must be broken because I couldn´t hear a thing. Nothing at all, totally quiet. Even when running under very heavy load is it barely discernible, and my box sits right next to my monitor, a foot away from my left ear. Totally silent! Incredible piece of hardware, and I have yet to bring it to its knees. Everything I threw at it so far it just swallowed and laughed.

WildBillKelsoe Posted October 24, 2012 Author Posted October 24, 2012 I guess those components don't expect to come cheaper anytime schoon.. AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.
