Hi
I’ve just purchase this little beast with the Asus prime M660B plus D4 exclusively for flying in the sim at 1080. I’m curious about your experiences with this processor and, particularly, how about the temps and the stock cooler during your flights. I’ve read in several places this new version of the cooler works really well with other lower members of the 1700 family, but I didn’t find anything about with the 12600 K/KF.
Regards
Out of interest (as I about to build a new PC with this CPU) is there any reason why you are playing at 1080p and not 1440p ? I have read over many forums and all are positive about this CPU’s performance in 1440p and 4k (with a 3080+).
My budget is tight but my current processor demands an upgrade after more than 10 years of service. So I can’t afford a 1440 monitor, either a new videocard. I’ll keep my current 970 until the prices of the cards will be back to a more rational levels (if this ever happens again).
Fully understand, I am using my current GTX 1660 - cannot justify / afford silly GPU prices at the moment, although card should be ok at 1440p medium to high at 30fps (so I understand). Also have issue of affording to upgrade from my 1080p monitor.
