Jeehell cockpit planning

[GodAtum]

This is my plan atm:

8885

For the PCs running Jeehell I was thinking:


i3 4130
8GB RAM
Nvidia 760
Corsair RM 550W



What do you think?

Hello,
I have a similar config and JL's FMGS is running fine.
From my point of view, 4 computers is enough.

Wow, you have a lot of computers and video outputs :)
I'm planning on running on two computers.

My only issue is I want to run the joystick input on a remote computer -- I'm looking for someway to translate usb joystick commands over the network. I know there is a hardware wireless usb dongle available but that is expensive.

The alternative would be to run a longer USB cable, but thats you know, messy :)

Just tested runnign FMGS on one computer - works fine. 1x Nvidia 660 ti OC; using the 3 display ports from the video card. Using the 1x display port from the internal video card.

Lol i could reduce so all the avionics are on one PC but i need 2 GPUs with 4 screens. then another PC for the 2 MCDUs.

Why 2 gp us for one screen? The latest nvidia video cards can drive 4 screen each.

oh ok! So an updated diagram. I still need separate PCs for the two MCDUs as Windows cannot handle 2 keyboards?

You can use for example the USBkeys from OC in conjuction with SIOC. It's easy to set it up via FMGS.of course it will depend of wich MCDU supplier you are using.
