Rubberduck Posted January 14, 2013 Author Posted January 14, 2013 Nice one Rubberduck, I'm close to finalising my parts list then I'll be placing an order on PC Specialist! Nice one :) In the other thread you asked about monitors, I am now using a pair of samsung Syncmaster S22B350H full hd monitors which are very good. From my other thread intitial findings: Beast arrived yesterday, initial tests, (couple of missions) have shown impressive performance, round the cockpit at the air base with everything high and switched on except HDR (cos I don't like it), medium civ traffic and 500% birds, I have been getting a very steady and smoothe 40 fps. On external views around 80fps, couple of time peaking at over 130. This is just using the inbuilt FPS monitor. And I am yet to test properly, but intially is very very good, and load times are mentally quick, thank you to all that advised on this thread very pleased so far oh and it looks cool too, pics to follow....

Ratfink Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 In the other thread you asked about monitors, I am now using a pair of samsung Syncmaster S22B350H full hd monitors which are very good. Thanks, I went with single Samsung S23B550V which is on order. I was thinking about the 27" but was concerned about pixel pitch & image quality at that size.
