    Christmas twice over!

    Thats right .. Next monday is Christmas for me. Two very big things are happening that i'm completely thrilled about. The first will be finally getting my Aerostar for XP11. It's a PA-601 so it's a full on Piper and has none of the otiginal parts and design to it that the PA-60 had, but i've been wanting an Aerostar for years, and will finally have it.

    The second big thing is that I order the case for my new computer build. It'll be based around a Thermaltake Core X-9, an Asus Mobo, 1000 watt Power supply and finally in February, a Ryzen 7-2800 CPU. I'll also be upgrading half my ram so it will all be running at 3200 Mhz. I should be able to run X-plane, make videos do almost anything i can think of.. Yup. It's christmas.. I cant wait

    It won't make that much difference visually (maybe more autogen) as I'm going to concentrate on CPU and RAM. My GTX1060 (factory OC) will stay for quite a bit.
    Technically, I won't even have to upgrade my OC'ed 4670K as it still runs fine, but you may never know when you might need the boost...
