No intention to use VR either now or in the foreseeable, so it's all about frames and eyecandy on the screen. I'm not too worried about bottlenecking, my 9700K still has some decent oomph and my RAM is decent too.

I'm also considering other games eg DCS and MSFS, neither of which I can run with maxed settings on the 980

So with the mining bubble bursting and GPU prices starting to get a bit more sensible - I'm looking an upgrade to my venerable 980Ti which thankfully has soldiered on through the recent shenanigans in the marketplace. Question is, what should I go for - given that I can only game at 1080p (space prevents me having anything larger) do I need more memory or a faster card? As I see it at the moment the 3060 is nearly in budget, so do I get the regular card with 12GB of vram or the significantly faster Ti version with 25% more cores than the standard card but only 8GB? I mean I'm clear on which is the more capable card at the top end, but for my much more modest requirements??? Why do you guys think?

Sorry Sid, there's just too much going on to be able to commit as much as I'd like. There's a whole raft of RL issues which conspire to use up my available time, energy and resources to the point where I just lose the urge to drag all the gear out and get set up to fly - in fact, the last time I picked up a joystick was when you and I spent a couple of hours in MSFS a month ago and before that, I can't even remember. Even the rig is in bits at the moment as I had started to do some upgrades which didn't happen and I've not even put the bloody thing back together - the parts are under a dustsheet here in a corner of the office as I speak. That said, the Dogz have been a central part of my life since that chance meeting in the Red Lion back in 2006 so I will do my best to get back involved again. N

So where do you guys get the addons for the game? I've found a couple of sites but any recommendations?

TS details sent by PM - Welcome aboard Mosquito!

Currently I can make any of those dates, so for preference I'd do an overnight in June and just one day in September.

Don't see why not Skidders, free time is a limited commodity for me at present, but we could certainly give it a try...

Got the Duxford add-on and I'm now waiting for payday to pick up the connie and mk9 spit.

Not available again for this I'm afraid

unavailable tonight, sorry

Count me in Chris, I've just bought the bog standard version via Steam as well - no addons yet but I've not looked

15/01/45 H. Jampton 1 x FW-190A8 (seen to belly in south of enemy airfield - confirmed by White 2) 1 x AAA 1 x Searchlight

Should be available too

D.XXI?

I was on last Tuesday!

That makes sense - there's a plan then.

So, I have a bit of a bonus coming in this month, so I'm thinking about buying this - question is, which version to go for - is it better to buy the top-tier version or to buy the base version and put the difference into buying some add-ons (planes, scenery etc). Thoughts?

It is with considerable regret that the 402nd reports the death of Lt Roger Over in combat earlier today. Badly damaged by an unseen attacker, the aircraft went in vertically without the unfortunate pilot being able to regain control or bail out. His next of kin have been notified by the War Office. His replacement, 2nd Lt Hugh Jampton, has been notified of his new posting and should arrive at the front by Sunday.

Hopefully I will be in but work calls I'm afraid.

...polishes steam from glasses...

I've voted for them all - let me know when and where and I'm on it.
