Hi All:
Howdy everyone...you've got an old fart now. :rolleyes: I'm Sean from Southern California, just about ready to retire. My ONLY gaming I've ever done has been Flight Simulation. Got my real pilot's license back in 1983, then got married in 1988 and the flying funds dried up. Been a simmer since Day One with MS Flight Simulator- back into the DOS and Apple II ages. My first PC was a Radio Shack TRS-80 4k Level 1 that had a cassette deck as a hard drive. Then graduated up to Apple IIe, then finally a 486 Packard Bell. Built about 8 machines since then. Just about ready to take the plunge on a i9-9900k on a Maximus XI Extreme on full water. And since MS Flight Sim is ancient like me now, also ready to load up Prepar3D v4.3 with a PMDG 777x and a 737NGX. I don't do much on the way of oc'ing...just some milds to keep up with the Joneses. My current system, though, is in the 85+ percentile on UserBenchmark with the new GTX1080tiFTW3. Got lucky I guess!
Big Asus fan - have always used their MBs, but I've got to tell you that the Aura issue that landed me here is the darndest issue I've EVER had to resolve. But I'd still maintain that everywhere, no matter which Mfr, there are issues. Fortunately, I've never had to contact Asus support other than here. And that's coming from someone who has to has a squeaky-clean Event Viewer. 😉
