October 30, 20178 yr Greetings, in my pc currently i have a pair of gtx970 in sli mode. I am looking forward for an upgrade and thinking for a gtx1060 6gb ram because my budget can't afford a gtx 1080 or even a gtx 1070 (both 8gb ram). In terms of graphics performance will it better from my current sli configuration or should i leave it this way? i have p3d v4.1 installed on my pc. specs i7 5820k @4.4ghz mobo gigabyte x99 ud4p ram 16gb 2 x ssd 500gb (one for p3d) 1 hd 1tb 2 x gtx970 4gb sli psu 800w Dimitrios Dogos
October 30, 20178 yr Commercial Member What do you usually fly? VFR, IFR, PMDG? ORBX? Photoreal? How much you care about looks and FPS? If the above answers are mostly YES then i would go for a minimum 1070 8GB. My 2c... __________________________________________________________________________________________ My FS Photos - My MSFS Settings - i7-14700K / 64GB RAM / MSI 4070 Ti SUPER / 1440p

Generally speaking, SLI has no advantage when it comes to running P3D. So, if I were in your shoes, I'd upgrade my current video card setup to a single 8 GB or even better 11 GB video memory card. Going to 11 GB will allow you to take advantage of the increased scenery LOD radius that P3Dv4.x has to offer.

I would sell the cards in insomnia.gr and buy a 1070 or 1080. I think you would be ok from H/W for now. Your CPU would be adequate. I have 1070 with [email protected] and i am relatively ok. Then find money for the addons. __________________________________________________________________________________________ My FS Photos - My MSFS Settings - i7-14700K / 64GB RAM / MSI 4070 Ti SUPER / 1440p
