  1. Stock will be faster in general as it will boost above 4.2 in apps that use only a few cores. It might also boost above 4.2 when under heavy loads depending on how good its cooled but it varies from system to system.
  2. Id make sure XMP profile for the memory is selected in bios otherwise the ram will run at only around 2666, this can be checked in Task Manager in Windows to see if the memory is running at the 3600 rated speed or not. I wouldnt bother with overclocking a Ryzen straight away as it does a decent enough job stock. It keeps a little performance in reserve for when you upgrade cooler/gfx later down line and can get tiny boost from an overclock.
  3. Hi there, ive just came back to DCS after few years away and im wondering what version has busier MP? Its mostly for freeflying rather than mission based play. Thanks for look, Greg.
  4. Hey there! Quick question about DCS versions n etc. Ive been away for ages n just reinstalled DCS again. Is the base game for everyone getting upgraded to v2 of the sim eventually or is it just when buy Nevada? My version is still on 1.5.xx and thought it was getting upgraded for everyone? Just want to know if the version number should be 2.xx or V2 is already what im playing on. Thx for look!
  5. Only real difference if specs are the same is (potential) overclocking room.
  6. Hi im looking to buy DCS Mirage and was wondering where i apply the $10 bonus ive had for a while from other purchases ive made? Ive went right up to the point of payment but i cant see where to use the bonus discount? It expires in a couple weeks so want it used before then Thx for look, Greg.
  7. Low download speed once seed numbers pick up? Hi there, there seems to be an issue with the torrenting version of the updates the beta is getting.. Initially when the update download started using the torrent downloads, which i assume is a new feature of the Updater, i was getting about a 4-6MB download speeds when building up the number of peers. Once it stabilised around 180 peers the speed has now dropped to about 150k/s. Is there a fix to this issue or to force the update to use the direct download host instead of torrenting? Also, if there are 180+ peers for these updates, who exactly is hosting them? Does the latest update turn my pc into a torrenting seed box full time, when the game is running, or does it only connect to people running full blown torrent apps? **Also as a side question, does the repair install feature of DCS check all the content installed or just the base DCS World install? After getting the beta to download a few days ago i got an error log about updating some modules and now the Mig 21 has a partial see-through body and few other parts. I have ran the repair link in the start menu but the plane still has several areas of the body thats transparent. Thanks for look, Greg.
  8. Howdy. Ive finally decided to download the beta 1.5 but i cant seem to update it after spending all day downloading the out of date torrent listed on the main website. After having the updater fail several times through the day with "server capacity may be limited", i now cannot even get the updater to try, even after using the guides to force the updater to check outside its once daily routine. 1.5 seemed to install properly from the 10GB torrent off the main site but then the update broke about 2 minutes into updating to 1.5.1.etc and broke the 1.5 already installed. Now all i get is "ERROR: Sorry, web-installs are temporarily suspended. Use the full installer, please." Yet the only full installer is the torrent from 2 months ago? Is there any fix to this at all? Thanks , Greg.
  9. Does the cpu load change at all when on the runway or just the gpu load increases? It always drops loads of fps for me on the ground.
  10. With what cpu though? The FX-8320 has about the same single core performance as a Core2Duo e6600 2.4 ghz. I still dont think DCS 1.5/2 supports multi core cpus (or 2 cores max) so its the equivalent of running the 970 with a 9 year old core2duo.
  11. I think you are still asking too much of your system. On 1.5 changelog it says the new "Extreme" visibility is only for high end systems along with a few other options that are set probably too high for the cpu/gpu. Id try lowering the visibility range one notch along with the shadows options, water and cockpit displays res down to 512. Might as well turn vsync on too and get a stable 60 fps instead of thrashing the gpu for extra fps the screen wont show (if a 60hz screen).
  12. Are you using max msaa and other settings? Can you post screenshot of your graphics menu options pls.
