October 21, 201114 yr Not good for FSX but X-plane10 can use it and depending of the way Flight is reworked we may be able to use this board also.... http://www.guru3d.com/news/evga-teases-with-a-new-dualsocket-motherboard/
October 21, 201114 yr Does it mean you can use dual cpu's ? Ryzen 5 1600x - 16GB DDR4 - RTX 3050 8GB - MSI Gaming Plus
October 21, 201114 yr You're going to need some serious water cooling just to keep a couple of those CPUs under control. Alain, I can't wait to see what you do when all this stuff is released!

October 21, 201114 yr I had a dual socket Mobo(skulltrail) in the past, it was nice, but if both chips aren't equally overclockable then the stability is terrible. I was running 2 QX9775 chips and I could never even get it to 4ghz stably(blue screens every couple of hours/days). I ended up taking it apart and built a computer for my girlfriend with it.

Alain, I can't wait to see what you do when all this stuff is released!It all depend are Flight is built engine wise, if Flight is like FSX there is no reason to build a rig with a mobo using dual socket for FSX but if Flight (like X-plane 10) can use as many core as you'r welling to put in your rig that may be a game changer for me, by the time this mobo is released we may know more about Flight spec., if not I can always try X-plane 10 cause it look very promissing....time will tell.I had a dual socket Mobo(skulltrail) in the past, it was nice, but if both chips aren't equally overclockable then the stability is terrible.

Fwiw, I ran my skulltrail for about 3 years clocked at 4.0. But it was at 4.0 where I noticed a “significant” amount of volts necessary to keep things stable. No blue screens. I’ve recently had a bit of heartburn knowing I can’t purchase replacements so I have backed off to 3.6. Running now a flight now from EGSS Stansted to RKJB Muan (10hrs). Not entirely satisfied with the performance... but not bad (miss that extra 400MHz ). Here’s a 17hr flight from Sydney to JKF (no bsod @ 4.0 is the point).http://forum.avsim.n...__fromsearch__1 I ran one (Fritz Chess Benchmark) @ 4.2, which was the highest stable I could do with the 6000btu air condition I use to cool that rig.http://www.jens-hart...rks/Rob%20O.JPG Fugger & K|ngp|n at XtremeSystems had much better success: http://www.xtremesys...cking&p=2765979 EVGA’s SR-2 & Intel 2x5680s was a decent overclocker too. One person at “my” chess forum @ 4.2 http://hiarcs.net/fo...?t=3647&start=0 on air (I would have to ask what GHz they settled on). Another friend purchased an oc’d version of the SR-2 & 2x5680 from YoYo Tech (London) @ 4.25 (watercooled). I've always known it to have behaved well. But like you allude to alain... If the app isn't specifically written for SMP then no point in paying the extra money.
