Not really.

It's a very, very nice system but that's what constitutes a high end system today.
Now, something like quad SLi is pretty much from outer space...I agree though that most of us have to tweak things to get the most from the game.

So - on a modern high end rig this game has no performance issues any more. Nice!

I hope it runs smooth..it cost you a car to get it like that!

Nice Rig mate, like you said very similar to my own, CLOD certainly needs some serious grunt.

Congrats.
I'm waiting on some parts for my new build as well. I missed the fever of looking for new hardware.
I kept my q6600@2.4/GTX285/4gbDDR2 to see how it will run. It runs but i have to sacrifice too much beauty to run on it.
The old box is 3.5 years old anyway, it served me good, but is a good time to let it go.
My system will be quite similar with yours. I already have the EVGA GTX590, I'm waiting on the i7 2600k, Asus ASUS P8Z68-V Pro, crucial M4 256GB SSD and 2x4GB of Corsair DDR3.

I should have all the parts sometimes next week and looking forward to put it all together.

How do you like your G940? Any issues getting it setup in COD? I'm still waiting for the US version of COD from Amazon. I've heard a lot of horrer stories about HOTAS setups and the sim not recognizing HOTAS hardware and/or unrealistic or uncontollable stick and rudder. It sounds like your sim is running as designed but it's good to get some feedback about the G940 since it provides the whole HOTAS set with FFB at a reasonable price.

Sweeet! That system will sure run CoD

My G940 works well now that they fixed FF effects in the latest patches. The problem is that when loading a mission it first have forces for a second, then goes as "limp" and after like 20-30 seconds the FF kicks in and all is fine. It feels like if you provoke it a bit with high alpha turning it kicks in faster

Regarding the configuration of axes it has worked rather fine for me, the logarithmic scaling is a bit weird to configure and the first version lost settings at reboot, but now all it at least as good as IL2 for me at least. The rudder is a bit "spiky" but I think that is due to the G940

I´m having this problem too with FF. Sometimes takes more than 30 seconds to engage the forces. Also after firing, sometimes I loose it. However when I start the next mission, it´s fine, the forces are there.

You won't utilize that 590 to its fullest until SLI works properly. 580 would have been a better choice.

Thats an odd thing to say considering SLI will eventually be enabled
