Anybody running IL2 BOS on a I7 950 ?

Hi

 

I am looking at the Oculus summer sales 

 

My config : 

 

I7 950 oc to 3.72 Ghz

 

12 GB RAM 

 

MSI GTX 1070 GAMING X 6GB 

 

SAMSUNG SSD 850 PRO 250 GB

 

ASUS XONAR DX 5.1 SOUND CART 

 

WINDOWS 7 64BITS

 

MS FFB2

SAITEK THROTTLE QUADRANT

SAITEK PRO FLIGHT RUDDER

TRACK IR5

 

 

My config didn't passed the Oculust compatibility test due to the CPU.

 

But I did the Steam Test which is more complex and everything was green. 

 

So my question , do I have the chance to play correctly ( with some quality adjustment ) IL2 BOS with Oculus ?

 

I play on ultra settings actually with SSAO, HDR , AA SHARPEN ... and have FPS between 120 at high altitude and 60 at low level with complex scenes.

 

 

 

Thanks for the tips and help

Yes you should be able to run the Rift, however I suspect you will  need to lower some graphics settings.

I confirm.

 

When I first got the rift I was running an i7 920 @4.0ghz, DDR3 @1533mhz (If I remember correctly), a gtx1070 and the same ssd. So pretty much the same rig.

 

Most VR games worked fine.

 

With Hud off, Il2 on balanced settings will only reach 90 at high altitude, while low altitude or dogfights would force me down to asw on and 45fps. All in all, enough to enjoy the game in VR glory if you can live with the artifacts asw produces. But for competitive combat on larger multiplayer servers, no.

Hi,

 

Many thanks for the info,

 

Do you know if there are videos on the net where I can have an idea of the artifacts I can have on IL2 ?
