At long last! NEW PC!!

Postby Spindrift » Fri Nov 23, 2012 4:42 pm

Finally able to design, buy, build, and most importantly; afford my own custom gaming rig! Just been tuning and tweaking FSX for now, managed to squeeze out a few screens. Running at 1080p, AA & Anisotropic, Bloom & ENBseries, almost every single slider maxed (save traffic), FTX, REX and A2A Accu-Feel. Solid and smooth 35-40 fps! discovered a beautiful new feature on my New GTX 660: FXAA! just turned it on along with the frame limiter and vsync in NVIDIA Inspector and POOF! Beauteous Maximus!

And I havent even got around to overclocking!

Wow! :o :o
And just how much did that fine setup cost you?



All I can say is: "there's a reason God gave us TWO kidneys..."

...

I'm just kidding!! $1054.89 all from newegg.

...

(I'm never gonna miss that kidney...)  ;)
