Not bad for my humble PC-----

I have an almost similar system you have. Duo6600 running at 3.4ghz. I think what saves your performance is the 470. I'm running an 8800gts 640mb and my performance over land is in the mid teens. Over water I can have a nice dogfight in the high twenties. Still stuck with the 14072 beta patch. Everything after it performs worse. If they ever get this thing patched up properly I upgrade accordingly.

You maybe right about the 470.


When I got this GPU I was told that the 470 over heated and could be a problem.

To get the 580 when thy had it in stock.


The 470 is not getting any hotter then any other GPU I have had.

The 580 is a better GPU for sure but I'm happy the 470.

I have 2 Saitek x52 Joysticks and now a MSWFF PRO2.

Just today I set up the 2 x52 throttles to use as duel throttle control in CLoD.

Works great!

The throttle on the MSWFF I use as the wheel brakes.

I was never really able to take off in the Blenheim's.

I can now take off going start down the runway in the stock mission.

Heavy on the right engine very light on the left engine until your back wheel is off the ground.

Then put the the pedal to the metal with both right and left.

Thats it.
