T34 vs Tiger- Kursk 1943 coming soon! - Page 73

Dung_Beetle · 05-18-10, 02:50 PM

I was working when I bought my new rig, and now I'm not.

Now, I've got time to play.

But not much cash.

morttheslayer · 05-18-10, 03:27 PM

Dung Beetle - looks like you are already contributing

I now feel totally inadequate

closely matching Mrs Panzer Commander's view of me!!! 3 GPUs AND a 30inch screen you must get neck ache scanning unless your chair is located in the garden

No - I'm only jealous

Looking forward to Mission 4 - BTW I will survive; (like Gloria Gaynor) because I can select "Immortality"

No No it's cheating I won't really

I don't know what mount Peiper favoured, Frinic's right he used to drive around to recon for his spearhead/offensive during the Ardennes offensive but it's interesting - I'll see what I can find. I remember when Jane's WW2 fighters was released, being a little more than interested in that particular offensive the game was a gift for me when released. I had to get a Voodoo 2 card to play it!! Happy days - a real manual and film clips made it a superb entertainment package (of the day) etc etc silly old man rambling

All for now - Mort

"He's a very modest man - with a lot to be modest about"
Winston Churchill about Clement Atlee.

Dung_Beetle · 05-18-10, 06:27 PM

I haven't contributed to the project yet, morttheslayer, but plan too!

It's just not in the budget for this month, next month, I hope

I got some great news from DCS (Digital Combat Simulations). I emailed them if they are planning to building some tank models like T90C, Challenger, M1A2 Abrams, and Leopard II. They replied it's in the works, but no release date is set yet. They said all above models would be included.

frinik · 05-18-10, 10:19 PM

Sorry about the remark Dung_Beetle, just unhealthy curiosity on my part

.

Sorry about your job although the World economy seems to be picking up.Hopefully you'll have a stab at one in the near future after, of course ,having lots of hours to play tank sims

.

Just one question: I wasn't aware that you could insert more than one graphic card in a pc unless it comes equipped with 2 like crossfire .How did you manage to have 3?????

I just bought myself a pc with an Nvidia GT235 ( although I would have preferred an ATI Radeon) and before I even get the pc I am alraedy thinking about upgrading.

Thanks for any info you can share

Cheers

Dung_Beetle · 05-19-10, 12:48 AM

No problems Frinick I am not offended. Look at the specs on the P6T7. It handles 3 large video cards well, and a sound card to boot. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813131390

It has two NF200 that doubles the number lanes on available on the board to 72 lanes. You could have 2 x GTX 295 for quad SLI. This board is 3-way SLI ready.

I love it! I'm running all programs 2560 x 1600 full settings in high temps 50's, 60's. The only thing that runs my cards hot is the Napoleon & Empires Total War Series. I'm running low 70's with those games.

frinik · 05-19-10, 04:48 AM

Am I dreaming or is this really the specs that you have on your rig?
running:
i7-920 processor,
windows 7-64bit,
6Gb Gskill Trident ram,
3xBFG GTX 260 in SLI,
2x1.5Tb WD sata drives.

3 gigs of hard disk???? Each GTX 260 has probably 1 gig of dedicated graphic /video memory so we are talking about 3 gigs of total dedicated video memory!!!! Your rig is a Tiger II while the rest of us are still driving Panzer IIIs

WOW when I see the resolutions and FPS you're getting I am flabbergasted!!!!!Mind you I would hate to see your electricity bills because 3 high end graphic cards must require a lot of juice. Not to mention that you probably need a couple of cooling fans or pads to stop your pc from overheating!!!!

When I think I am happy playing Steel Fury missions with anywhere from 12 to 26 fps at 1280 X 768 resolution and other games I can't pass 40 fps....And Tvst best case scenario I get 25 fps with the stock missions and with Zee's mods anywhere from 4.6 to 11 fps.....

This is great fior you, and us and ZeeWolf because once you join our merry club you'll be a Beta Tester for sure and we'll get an idea of what a super-boosted rocket -type rig like your can achieve with Zee's mods.If you get 30 fps with his mods on then you'll be on top of the hill!

You seem to be playing mostly RTS . It's great to jump into the world of sims because it gives you the concrete feel of a battlefield whereas RTS give you more the abstract or impersonal side of it.

Best of luck job-wise!

Cheers

frinik · 05-19-10, 04:52 AM

Morty a Voodo 2 card??? What you're supposed to do with it? Stick needles in it and wait for the results?Or sacrifice and behead some chicken while dancing around a fire????

I have to PM you!!!!

Cheers

My regards to Mrs. Panzer Commander.Remind her that you're over 60 and grey hair deserve respect and indulgence in their own weird habits( including playing sims).
