    Joystick for space combat sims.

    Not ordered anything yet, I was thinking, wouldn't I just be able to use a T1600m in combo with my hotas X throttle? That tbh sounds like the most reasonable way to do it, so many people rate the T1600m for accuracy and its cheap.

    Joystick for space combat sims.

    Hi peeps, I was playing a lot of Xwing alliance and Xwing vs tie; so I bought a Thrustmaster Hotas X... but I hate it because of the deadzone being so massive and it makes dog fights annoying. I just need something with some good accuracy. I read the Thrustmaster T1600 has a much better...

    X-Wing and Tie Fighter - GOG - Out Tomorrow!

    Never had the chance to play them as a kid (90's child), my dad always had Macs only game I had the pleasure of playing was that god awful rebel assault game. Was playing Xwing vs Tie last night for about 5 hours and I really enjoyed it; the game play is awesome. The only other space Star wars...

    Grand Theft Auto V

    I had the same problem on the 360 version with cars, on the old GTA's you would just put your car in the garage and it would always be there. I tend to just rely on the Vehicle impound, just leave the car and it will end up there costs 250 dollars to release it. I just dont even bother with...

    Grand Theft Auto V

    I caved and bought it last night, left it downloading thinking that by the time I woke up it would be finished but for some reason it seems to have crashed at around 20 gig. Then there is the fact the installer hogs my entire connection so i had to waste 25 mins looking for a free download...

    The Official Guild Wars 2 thread

    I try and get into the game, i was playing it a little last night and i just cant seem to enjoy it. It just feels to simple and the combat isn't as enjoyable as WoW for me. I loved playing my mage Just a case of spamming 5 abilities endlessly is what it feels like

    Will an I7 2600 hold back a GTX980?

    Well i just stuck another 8 gig ram in my SB as my mate upgraded to devils canyon and sold me his old memory for cheap (same ram as mine), personally i think its worth a shot buying a 980. I been impressed with my 970 coupled with a 2500k 4.4ghz. I was thinking the other day how when its next...

    The Official GTX980/970 OC & Benchmark Perf. Thread

    I can get stable at 1.9-1.95 memory i was playing games all day yesterday with no crashing and no artifacts, but i decided to settle for 1.8 ghz on the memory because that way i can guarantee stability, i just feel more happier leaving it at 1.8. :) This card is the best thing i have bought...

    The Official GTX980/970 OC & Benchmark Perf. Thread

    I think you were right you know, i lowered the memory to 1.95 and didn't see a crash after a crisis 3 sesh but i then lowered it to 1.9 anyway as id rather guarantee stability and i think trying to get it to 1.95-2ghz is pushing it as the memory is stressed enough as it is.. With any luck i...

    The Official GTX980/970 OC & Benchmark Perf. Thread

    Yeh thanks for the info dude, i could probably up the core voltage and get it stable at 1500mhz because crysis 3 ran like a dream up to the point of crash. Would +25 core voltage be alright to start with or would you lot got lower then that. Also i got to stick to that 110 limit how much core...

    WoW; 5th expansion Warlords of Draenor

    So tempted to go back lol, problem is my 280X is RMA'd atm. I have a 7900 GT with 256 meg vram atm and i really don't think that card is going to be able to pull it off. Haven't played since cata, is there any cheap ways to get back into it or am i going to have to buy MoP as well?

    i7 920 D0 unstable at stock settings

    Yeah it has Thermal paste because i took it off and reapplied some Arctic silver, yes the CPU heatsink gets warm. I can get around 8 degrees off the CPU by just using 1.2 volt instead of 1.25 manual voltage, i think i was pumping to much into for stock settings. Air flow is fine and the HSF...

    i7 920 D0 unstable at stock settings

    QTT voltage as in Uncore voltage? I thought there was a 0.5 rule, i have the CPU manually set at 1.25 so if i was to increase VTT to 1.35 wouldn't that damage the cpu?

    Well i believe it to be stable with 4 sticks of memory, which i kind of guessed it would be all along without testing. cant get it stable with 6 sticks it doesn't matter what i try i meen end of the day it should be stable on auto settings. Ah well
