I had a few Christmas bonus credit cards stacked up One that is soon to expire and I noticed WinWing had their stuff half the price it used to be, and I figured if I was going to do that I might as well spring for the GPU and upgrade from the Asus GTX 970
The Asus 4080 Super
and the Winwing Throttle
I'm miles yet from getting it configured and learning how.
I just updated DCS and well that has certainly had some changes in the last 4 or more years.
My trackIR is also not wanting to stay centered and programming a button doesn't seem to fix it either.
I have DCS full settings at 3860 x 2160 on a LG 120hz gaming TV and it is absolutely beautiful with FPS in the 60-90's
I'm still running my I5 at 3.6 too, so when it gets to being sick well LOL
I also just went ahead and hacked my PC case I bought thinking would be big enough forever 12-14 years ago to make the 4080 fit in this case. It has a front rib cage for 10 or so drive bays, that I have never utilized, so when I cut out the obstruction area I made it the correct height to support the 4080, thus negating a need for a support stand or strap. I then split a piece of rubber tubing and laid it over the sharp edge for a soft cushion for the card. Luckily the 1000 watt PSU I put in back in back then too is well more than needed still.
