Jessica Bannister-Pearce describes her new custom-built PC

The old kit, waiting to be removed.

New motherboard and CPU in place, its time to replace the water cooler pump. The NT-H1 Thermal compound needs just a single pea-size application.
May turned out to be a very exciting month for two reasons. First up, and after waiting for years for the arrival of a 64-bit version of FSX, two came along at once. Dovetail’s Flight Sim World and Lockheed Martin’s Prepar3D v4 join X-Plane and DCS in the wonderful world of 64-bit simming. Exciting stuff indeed!
