Thinking of slpashing the cash, but need more info...
Hi there, I have a pretty good computer (although as we move on, its getting slower and slower by comparison to new technology...)
Here are my system specs.
CPU: AMD Phenom 9850 Quad core. (Water cooled and overclocked from 2500Mhz to 2750Mhz.)
GPU: Nvidia 8800GTS 320Mb X2. (Both overclocked to 648Mhz.)
RAM: 4096Mb 800Mhz. (Overclocked to 825Mhz.)
MB: Asus Crosshair 590 SLI with BIOS update 1103 for AM2+ support.
HDD: Western Digital Raptor (System drive) Seagate Barracuda (Games only drive).
PSU: High Power Modular 1000W.
Monitors: 22� LCD Samsung Syncmaster 2ms response, time, plus 17� CRT as monitor 2 (Each monitor on separate GPU when SLI is not enabled.)
OS: M$ Vista Ultimate SP1.
Here's a video too (incase you are interested )

Now I can get around 40-50 FPS in FSX on low to medium settings. If I add TrackIR to the game, will my frame rates drop at all or will they remain the same?
Thanks for your time,
Brian

Re: Thinking of slpashing the cash, but need more info...
Generally, the TrackIR uses less than 0-2% of system resources, so you may see at most a drop of a few frames per second
Re: Thinking of slpashing the cash, but need more info...
Thanks mate. Pay day is comming soon
Re: Thinking of slpashing the cash, but need more info...
Hope you do not have CFS3 or wings of war.....Track Ir will not work with Vista64...Don't fly too low
Re: Thinking of slpashing the cash, but need more info...
The TrackIR does work with Windows Vista, the issue with CFS3 is the way that memory is getting accessed within the OS changed, thus causing it have issue with CFS3.
I have heard of no issues wit Wings of War -
Have you tried running as an admin (both the TrackIR and gaming application)?
Running in Windows compatibility mode?

The TrackIR has arrived!! After a really quick set-up I loaded FSX and had a go. After about 2 minutes I had gotten used to it, and WOW it makes soo much difference!!
Brilliant piece of kit! As soon as I get some time off work I'll make some videos of GRID, FSX, and Arma. I'll put them on youtube and link them here.
You are welcome to use any of my videos, and thanks very much for such a great and innovative product,
Brian
