Getting Rig ready to fly again

[UHU_Fritzl65]

S! Alle,

I have been grounded due to technical difficulties...

MoBo crashed hard lost all data...

I have been getting my system back totogether and am in need of some help.

I have installed the 4.08m and them the 1.1 from AAA

The new MoBo and system specs are as follows:

MSI 7374 SLI

CPU= Phenom 2 940 3.0 GHz

8 Gig of OCZ 6400 DDR2

2x XFX 8800GT Alpha Dogs...512 DDR3

Now the question is... which video drivers are best for this.. IL2 leaning of course...

then after that how to get the best picture out of this...

I used to know what I am doing with Pcs... now I feel like a real newb.....

I look forwad to flying again soon...

I am relocating the flight chair from the basemetn to an enclosed porch...and I hope to be able to get a wall mounted monitor...any suggestions for this would be greatly appraciated...plasma or lcd?

That is a sweet setup you have there M8.

I used to know what were the best nVidia drivers were, but I switched to ATi, having said that I rarely had issues using the latest offerings from nVidia unlike ATI.

The screen is a little easier, I would think LCD is the better choice due to faster refresh and AFAIK there are no plasma monitors on the market yet, but I have been wrong before!

Hey Fritzl nice to see you back,

8 GIGS of FREAKING RAM! Whoa!

I agree, nice rig!

Unfortunately, I don't have much input to give regarding your questions...

I think you want to stay away from Plasma for gaming, unless I'm completely misinformed they have issues with image burn like old-school tubes.

I just built a new rig and bought a new monitor.
