I'm expecting my new PC parts next monday, so I hopefully should be able to take part in all sessions. Fingers crossed

I'm having a few graphics card problems, but it appears that if I keep my computer off for the entire day I can get about 3-4 hours of life out of the GPU before I get severe frame drop issues. I should be able to drive, though.

Does anyone know the best way to clean the dust out of a GPU?

I do that carefully with vacuum. You have to block the fan with a finger, in order not to exceed the speed of operation.
If you haven't it, airspray is ok too.

I'll be there.

Yep, vacuum & airsprays. I don't recommend you to open the GPU, lot's of little things you can destroy if you don't know what you're doing.

Also check out that the airflow to the GPU is not compromised too much by wires inside the case.

Wouldn't miss my home GP for the world.

I´m scheduled to work that evening/night but i will look into it and do some changes . I really dont want to miss out on any race with this mod .

Absent le jeudi mais normalement présent le samedi pour les qualifs

Thanks Ben and Samuli, tried the vacuum and it seems to have helped

Unfortunately, I will be absent. It will be Mother's Day on that Sunday, so I'll be with the fam.

Mother's day is here the first sunday of May, i.e. tomorrow. However it might be that in the US you celebrate it the next one, of course

Present, switched the graphic card to the other PCI-E slot and seems like that worked, hope so because i´m totally tired out of those problems. I want to race dammit!

Marcus Présentttttttttt

Absent jeudi et samedi pour les qualifs car je fais le grand pont
S'il reste une place en fin de grille dimanche soir je reste partant pour le warm up et la course

Sorry everyone for not reporting my absence, my motherboard stopped working and I'm about to get a new one, should be here by Silverstone.

Well, looks like i talked too soon, today i have launched Rfactor for some practice and the appalling performance has returned

I´m thinking about some new pieces, but not sure i´ll be able to race this week

Try rerunning rFactor setup if you have not already Abat. I hope that helps/fixes it.

List updated/liste mise à jour!
