Monitor Honest Opinions
boddman replied to Stephen Simpson's topic in Video Hardware: Monitors | Multi-Monitors | Video Cards | Drivers etcHere are a couple pics of my rig. I included on showing the desktop with and one from my flight sim. To the right you can see my tiny 17" laptop screen. The only disadvantage to a TV vs monitor I see is that it won't auto turn on/off with the PC and the response rates are supposedly slower for which I don't even notice.

Monitor Honest Opinions
boddman replied to Stephen Simpson's topic in Video Hardware: Monitors | Multi-Monitors | Video Cards | Drivers etcI would suggest you look at moving to a larger 4K TV instead to save some money and if you have the room. I just moved from a 27" 1080p monitor to 40" Samsung 4K TV using a 970 and the difference is night and day. Even on a 40" screen, I have my DPI set to 150% in order to see icons and read text. I can't imagine having that resolution shrunk down to a 27" inch display as I would think it would be way to difficult to read. As for the GTX 970, it drives the 4K just fine, my only problem now in moving to that resolution is my CPU is now overheating when playing Fallout 4. To fix that I'm going to try some good thermal paste first and if the problem still occurs then I guess its time to add water cooling to my rig.

More then 30 Hz on 4K
boddman replied to YukonPete's topic in Video Hardware: Monitors | Multi-Monitors | Video Cards | Drivers etcI guess TechGuy beat me too it. BTW, I'm trying a flight right now using 30 Hz but I'm not really noticing any difference vs 60. I will probably go back to 60.

More then 30 Hz on 4K
boddman replied to YukonPete's topic in Video Hardware: Monitors | Multi-Monitors | Video Cards | Drivers etcI just bought a new Samsung 40" UHD TV last night (UN40KU6300FXZA) and its running P3d 3.3.5 like a dream right now at 60Hz. I went from a 27" ViewSonic 1080p monitor to this and it is like night and day. I use a single GTX 970 with an older I7-2600K 3.4 GHz overclocked to 4.2. Right now in cruise in the NGX, with ASN etc, I'm running at about 45 to 50 fps. TrackIR is very smooth, in fact after upgrading the monitor and turning off 4xSGSS, I get a better FPS and smoother experience at 4K then I ever did at 1080p. If anyone else out there is unsure of going to 4K and using a TV instead of a monitor for flight simming, don't be. It is an incredible improvement to the experience.

Need help from other Eaglesoft Citation X Pilots
I'm glad that this issue is being addressed. I've given up using the Citation X due to numerous CTD's with the FMC. I've gotten them near the first waypoint after takeoff at some airports and I also get them when using AP in HDG during take off, then trying to use the DTO function to navigate to the first waypoint.

Afcad updates.
Yes, but you will need to use Airport Design Editor and run the "reset all draw flags" to fix the missing taxiway issues. I've already done that to several of Ray's AFCADs.
