February 28, 201214 yr thats really good looks neat and functional -Well done - 2 Graphics cards i seeI like the cockpit have you got two MF panels one Saitek the other ?. impressive set upRadio Panel and Switch Panel. With a triple head 2go and still need one more video output so going to rethink the setup.what sort of paint did you paint it with - Hobby paints for models?Just some regular Home depot black and grey.Vincent, that is great! Neat, clean, and professional looking! I wouldn't mind that contraption being in my house at all!You should see the USB hub nightmare, have a 20port USB hub enroute so it should clear up some of the confusion.
February 28, 201214 yr Author Vincent,I am really impressed. It is a really professional looking job. Those twin 480s must keep the room warm. :Just Kidding:Kind regards,
February 28, 201214 yr Author Here's a quick recent shot of the setup.... (hmmm do I need to take some hints from the DIY cable thread lol?)It's usually not this messy... but it works great. skyvector, adds, approach plates etc on the small monitor (secondary PC linked to mine with Synergy+ ) and my main rig of course (added the pedals in Dec)I was just thinking that you have come a long ways in your rig Ryan! Looks better and better. Love the pedals.Kind regards,
February 28, 201214 yr My Current Main Rig.How much? eBay please. I like how you have made it for more than one plane type, really works well i think. Both optimists and pessimists contribute to our society. The optimist invents the airplane and the pessimist the parachute. ~Gil Stern

March 7, 201214 yr Got my new hardware in today. Will begin my assembly on the table first to make sure everything is working OK then move it all into the Antec case. Illigitimi non-carbrundum
March 7, 201214 yr Haha, I was just about to call overkill on the PSU, but I see you beat me to it in your sig! Great PSU regardless! What's the rating on it (gold/platinum)? I'll be looking forward to the photos of the finished product.

March 7, 201214 yr Author Got my new hardware in today. Will begin my assembly on the table first to make sure everything is working OK then move it all into the Antec case.Good selection of hardware! Looking forward to what it will look like assembled.Kind regards,
March 7, 201214 yr @ cmeeks: The PSU was recommended by silentpreview.com because of its quiet nature, it is the 80 Plus Gold Series . I used this site for much of my quest for silent operating hardware guidance. Although I could have used a smaller PSU, this one specifically was noted for its quietness and I needed 650 watt minimum with current configuration anyway. I won't be using the Hobart welder out in the shop as often now (grin)...@SpiritFlyer: Thanks for the encouragement. How it looks assembled will be a little interesting inside that black box, but I am hoping it performs the optimum FSX immersion miracle!! Illigitimi non-carbrundum
March 7, 201214 yr Very nice rig!Now time to OC it to 6GHZ! :Big Grin:I am **VERY** happy to see that you purchased a Z68/GEN3 mobo. Ivy Bridge AND PCIE3 compatible!Good luck building.
March 7, 201214 yr I've got the same mobo, it's really good for overclocking my i5 2500k runs stable (24/7) at 5ghz at 1.35 Vcore
