Anyone else thinking of buying a monster rig after Xmas?

For me yes, I want to enjoy CLOD to the full with stunning graphics, and to set up massive aerial battles

No need to buy a "monster" rig. For me a 900 EUR PC did it well. See sig.

S!

No. If Luthier's statement of the new and better graphics engine, that should be more optimized, I should not need to. Those bugs and missing featues hamper us more than any rig's performance at the moment. Possibly would go CrossFire IF the dev team gets it to work proper.

Get a mini monster rig as Foobar sugests. I got almost the same config for about a $1000. When the game is optimized and SLI/CF are implemented it's time to built something scarry. I have a few custom missions with 24 Spitfires and Hurricanes taking on about 100 he111 and 24 109's over Southern England. Runs around 25-30fps most of the time at high settings so it's possible.

If you can, try and wait until the Summer. The flooding in Thailand will keep component prices on certain things high until the flooding is over and the cleanup is well under way or finished.

I may do but will wait and see how the next update performs on my current PC. I had been looking at the I7 2600K mobo bundles on offer as a possible new year upgrade but the longer I can wait the less I will have to pay (I hope).
