needles 1,013 Posted November 26, 2018 Report Share Posted November 26, 2018 Your wish is our command Tom. As for your thoughts on the i9 CPU, it's will be perfect for P3D. I'm almost jealous. Good luck with the build and let us know how you get on with it. Cheers Brian Link to post Share on other sites
brett 2,314 Posted November 26, 2018 Report Share Posted November 26, 2018 Certainly top of the line. Haven't read anything bad about them or being used together so the only thing to think about is the fact that they are new so any problems, if any, will take some time to come out. That's not to say I wouldn't mind having them. Link to post Share on other sites
wain 879 Posted November 27, 2018 Report Share Posted November 27, 2018 sounds like a very powerful combo, what other hardware will you be using/ GPU, RAM? my system is as follows 6600K, Z170A MOBO, 1070 @ 8GB & 16GB RAM @ 2400, I run p3d4 at quite high settings with AivlaSoft, REX and loads of ORBX, using aircraft from Aerosoft, QW & iFly to name a few and locked at 30fps I get no issues apart from around Heathrow, all runs smoothly most of the time, biggest issue people do miss though is stuff in the background bogging down the system....hat are you upgrading from and how does that perform?

tomjon24 6 Posted November 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2018 (edited) Right now I am using the following: Intel i7-5960X OC 4.4 32.0 GB Memory Win 10 Pro 64-bit 1080 TI not OC Asus Rampage V Extreme Corsair H110 Liquid CPU Cooler I bought the GF Airliner system with the GF Pro yoke and the GFRP-2 Rudder. I am unhappy with the yoke. It has to much dead band sideways and push-pull. It also sticks. The other day I smeared petroleum jelly on the yoke surfaces and it helped. I also re-did the springs and installed rubber bands on the elevator pots inside to reduce the dead band. I would like to get YoKo the Yoke in the future.

tomjon24 6 Posted November 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2018 (edited) The system I just ordered and will be here the last of this week is as follows: i9 9900 K CPU Asus Rog Maximus XI Asus Rog GeForce GTX 1080 Ti DirectX 12 STRIX-011G Gaming 11GB Switch from the old computer Corsair Crystal 570X RGB Mid-Tower Samsung 970 PRO Series - 1TB PCIe NVMe - M.2 Internal SSD Black/Red (MZ-V7P1T0BW) Patriot Viper Gaming RGB Series DDR4 DRAM 3600MHz 16GB Kit - Black - RGB Color Profiles Corsair AX 1220i Power Supply Three BenQ 31.5 " curved Monitors. Existing CORSAIR Hydro Series H110i AIO Liquid CPU Cooler, 280mm Radiator, Dual 140mm SP Series PWM Fans, Advanced RGB Lighting and Fan Software Control I hope that this will cool the CPU with it OC to 5.0 If not I will have to upgrade. Do any of you use P3D Pro Plus. I have rented it but have not taken the time to set it up. Tom Johnson Edited November 27, 2018 by tomjon24 Link to post Share on other sites
tomjon24 6 Posted December 13, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 (edited) Well I got everything installed and it works great. One thing I did find out was change to Windows power option so I would not be power limiting the CPU. Thanks to ON THE GLIDESLOPE for finding this problem with X-PLANE 11 update. I have all the sliders full to the right hand and still keep above 20 FPS. I move the sliders to the left one notch and I am back to 30 FPS. I spent about $2800.00 and I think it is worth. I did already a ASUS 1080 ti so the over all price would of ben close to $3600. Edited February 26, 2019 by tomjon24 Power Option Link to post Share on other sites
