I want old and obscure planes to fly... Tu-128 Fiddlers, Su-17s, Su-15s, MiG-25s, Yak-25 Mandrakes...

DCS Blackshark isn't that intensive with the performance you need. The only thing that is a must is a HOTAS and if you are going to play it for a longer term do not buy some mediocre HOTAS with only a few buttons, because you will need as many functions as necessary to bind to the HOTAS. It is a pain in the ass to constantly have to reach around your HOTAS to use mouse and press hotkeys over keyboard while you are flying and worse enemies engage you or wise versa. The other recommandation would be a webcam and a program that can track your head movement so you can look around in cockpit with your head instead of using mouse which again makes you handicapped to react with your HOTAS to makes maneuvers or adjust weapons launch cursor on target or countermeasure use etc. pp.

This simulation is absolutley astonishing and it gives you a nice feeling when you can destroy SHORAD stations out of their reach like Avangers, Nikes and Hawks. The flying is absolutley great, just flying through the map trying to do loops, mostly with deaths, because you need to learn how to do it smoothly and not jerking around the cycle and causing mast bumping and rotor collision but you can do it, done it but it is hard.

There is an awesome video that someone made with what you can do with the flying performance of the Blackshark in this simulation.

Can't find it right now but that guy does loops after loops, barrel rolls and is just a god with that simulator.

There are also some good fanmade movies like these two.

A 19-year-old stumbled upon a dead body while searching for a Pokemon with an augmented reality game she was playing on her smartphone.

Shayla Wiggins said she came across the body of a man as she was playing the game on her phone near the Big Wind River in Wyoming.

The ‘Pokemon Go’ augmented reality game was launched earlier in the week and requires players to visit various real world locations to “capture” virtual Pokemon.

Honestly I object the release of Pokemon Go. Imagine that a legendary pokemon appeared in the middle of the highway, do you risk your life to catch it ?

No Man's Sky

This one is so good i just had to share it.

after half-year HoI4 AI still the same. Tank armies (+ infantry protect cauldrons) is uber-weapon, enemy cannot concentrate troops to weakpoint, cannot making counter-attack or сut the advandving units, he simply creates new frontline. But i like managment of country and army and belive in mods.  

So, i decided  to install Blitzkrieg with GZM mod new version for me 7.77, downloaded around 400 wartime songs from sovmusic, best soundtrack for operating regiments ), if anyone need that "music pak", i can upload .

Note how the Nvidia video card is associated with more CPU load when it beats the AMD video card in frame rates.
If AMD wants to compete with Nvidia it should release a game developer SDK like Nvidia that takes advantage of
its own hardware. But it is the fault of the developers for basically favouring Nvidia because they are too lazy
to recompile for AMD hardware. They don't even have to recode that much since the video calls are high level
and it is the software libraries that are optimized for the hardware.

You guys must play Metro Exodus as this is a Russian military forum....
