January 10, 201511 yr Nope. You're not satisfied. Deep down, you know a third screen will only make it obsessively perfect. Nice setup! Daniel Moser
January 10, 201511 yr 1+ What are the specs. I would guess you will still need a nuclear powered coffee cup warmer though! <VBG> Gary, CIMEL, retired FAA Controller & all around good guy!
January 10, 201511 yr Author Nope. You're not satisfied. Deep down, you know a third screen will only make it obsessively perfect. Nice setup! Thank you! Lol, yes in theory I would like a 3rd monitor. However, being my main screen is 2560x1440, that is out of my budget. Maybe in the future! 1+ What are the specs.

January 10, 201511 yr Unless you're doing some other types of serious gaming, you could probably cut the number of video cards by 50% and RAM by almost 70%. Greg Montey "Because with great power, comes great responsitriligence..."
January 10, 201511 yr Author Unless you're doing some other types of serious gaming, you could probably cut the number of video cards by 50% and RAM by almost 70%. IT by trade. I run a number of virtual machines. I also dabble in a bit of battlefield 4. David Graham Google, Network+, Cisco CSE, Cisco Unity Support Specialist, A+, CCNA
January 10, 201511 yr Ah, gotcha. It's easy here on AVSIM to get myopic and think all of us ever do is flightsim. Cheers dude. Greg Montey "Because with great power, comes great responsitriligence..."
January 10, 201511 yr Nice! But can you get 60fps reliably in Crysis 3? In other words turn V Sync ON at 2560x1440?
January 10, 201511 yr Author Nice! But can you get 60fps reliably in Crysis 3? In other words turn V Sync ON at 2560x1440? Yes sir. I have to cap BF4 at 85 fps. I use adaptive vsync. The monitor is OC'd to 85Hz. Does it make a difference, sort of. But it stays at 85. David Graham Google, Network+, Cisco CSE, Cisco Unity Support Specialist, A+, CCNA
January 10, 201511 yr You've just uttered the words that are a precursor to an FSX meltdown. When FSX is going well...SHUT UP! The World is divided into two groups. Those who say "Give me a link" and those that provide the link. WWG1WGA

I just upgraded to a 4790k and it seems like a good oc.

Havent installed fsx yet im waiting to delid and get my temps down under load at 4.8ghz 1.30vcore I have not delidded this processor. I do not think it is worth it. My temps are great. I do run a full custom loop keep in mind. I delidded my 4770k and 3770k. Those delidded made a big difference. Vcore is 1.335 I think. VCCIN is 1.93 Cache is stock.
