Is it a bug if your rig can’t handle it?


Recommended Posts

Bit of a pointless question

I’m assuming your rig can’t handle the new sim, but if so you haven’t said what your rig’s specs are.

Has nothing to do with my rig. BTW I am an X-Plane cockpit builder and my rig is very strong.

I am asking the question since many times I read posts in forums blaming the sim if something does not work-as a bug- and must be corrected in the next patch. I think the posters should look deeper in their system/performance aspect before making the bug statement.

So, is my question a bit of pointless?

Then in that case, I agree with you. It’s not always down to the sim. It’s very often down to the user or the setup being used. I even had an issue myself recently in that the sim kept crashing within seconds. Turned out it was down to me using a single cable (with a y-splitter) to power my GPU, instead of two separate cables.

sounds like you may have been able to get your hands a 3080?? If so how do you like it so far.

Steve, Thanks for your reply. You are a good sport.

 

No worries :)

 

 

Natman1964.. no 3080 for me yet. I have the RTX2080ti which I bought in April. It cost me about £1300 (inc a new psu) so I won’t be getting the 3080 just yet.

The 2080 also needs two leads, even though I’d been running it since April with just one.

I upgraded the motherboard & cpu etc recently and thats when the GPU decided it needed two power leads (& I should have done it originally LOL)

I have had a number of GPUs in the past that required two power leads, and was surprised recently when I got a RTX 2070 that only required one lead. I wonder if the super and Ti variants of the 2070 also require two.
