Night Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 (edited) I am building a computer with these specs. I am building it solely for use with DCS A-10C, FC3, and future DCS titles. I would really like to know if it will be able to run DCS A-10C at all maxed out settings, or mostly maxed out. Let me know what you think :) Any and all advice would be highly appreciated!

whartsell Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 How many monitors(resolution) you going to run. Thats going to be the biggest determining factor in performance. If anything more than one monitor at 1920x1080/1200 2GBvram is going to be tight Arduino,EOS and Helios Tutorial Static ATC menu mod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Posted August 4, 2013 Author Share Posted August 4, 2013 Well I bought the parts and assembled the new computer and it's amazing! I had an issue with A-10C and FC3 telling me that they needed to be activated because of a significant hardware change, but a quick search of the forums fixed that. The new build runs DCS very smoothly at ALL maxed out settings. The lowest FPS I have seen so far is 42FPS. The coolest part of all is that I simply took out the SSD from my old system and put it in the new computer and it started right up. Windows 8 automatically detected the new hardware and I had all of my stuff. It just booted right up the first time I turned it on. The only potential issue is that my power supply fan hasn't kicked on, except for one second whenever I turn it on. I think it's just because I got a high capacity PSU that delivers more power than I need right now and it isn't getting hot. But I will keep an eye on it.

Rangi Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 (edited) Glad to hear that your rig runs DCS well as I will be upgrading to something similar in a few months. I might go for the GTX 770 but everything else same same. Yes if your PSU is not delivering much current the fan will not run up till it gets hot. Enjoy, I will be looking forward to see how this rig goes with EDGE if/when it comes out. Edited August 4, 2013 by Rangi Punk,.:tuation PC: 6600K @ 4.5 GHz, 12GB RAM, GTX 970, 32" 2K monitor.

Night Posted August 5, 2013 Author Share Posted August 5, 2013 Yeah I think you will like the i5 4670K. I hope my system can handle the EDGE image generator when it comes out. Cause right now it is handling DCS etc. beautifully.
