Allen Hotshot Registered: 10/13/99 Posts: 5059 Loc: Ohio USA	See my signature -- Cougar+force mod. Prepare to spend "too much" -- as one nearly always does when one buys the best regardless of price. Still cheap compared to the highest end Intel quad and will last a decade longer As for the best performance/price deal, also see my signature -- Saitek. _________________________ Crossfire 2x Sapphire HD7970 OC - Eyefinity 5760x1200 24", 1xDell-U2410 H-IPS + 2xHP-ZR24w S-IPS, Ceton InfiniTV 4, Piledriver FX8350@4.6GHz w/Swiftech Water Cooling, 16GB GSKILL PC3 @1866, ASUS Sabertooth 990FX, OCZ Vertex 4 256GB SSD, 4x Seagate + Hitachi + 2x Sg Ext = 12TB, Lite-On DVD, OCZ ZX 850W PSU, CoolerMaster HAF922, TM Warthog HOTAS, TM T-Flight Stick X, TM Cougar+FSSB & CH Pedals, Saitek X52 Pro & Pro Combat Pedals, TrackIR5 w/TC Pro, Windows 8 Professional 64b

peppergomez Veteran Registered: 05/21/02 Posts: 14231	yeah, if you feel like sacrificing blood, sweat, tears, and time, then cougar is great...me, i got tired to tweaking/repairing/troubleshooting it and just wanted to fly, hence my switch to CH. _________________________ Mobo ASUS MAXIMUS IV EXTREME (REV 3.0) Memory CORSAIR XMS3 8GB DDR3 GPU 2 EVGA 680 FTW 4GB CPU Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz) Drives 2 HITACHI Deskstar 3TB 2 Crucial 256 GB SSD Displays 3 HP ZR30w 30" monitors UPS Cyberpower PP2200SW PSU Antec High Current Pro HCP-1200 1200W Case COOLER MASTER CM Storm Trooper Drive LITE-ON Black 12X Blu-ray CPU cooler Noctua 6 Dual Heatpipe Fans COOLER MASTER SickleFlow 120 OS Windows 7 Premium

NoUseForAName Hotshot Registered: 11/02/04 Posts: 5532 Loc: Colorado	reliability and ruggedness - CH all the way feel and looks - Cougar, Saitek I'm a CH man mainly because my HOTAS takes a beating; but I never have to worry about them breaking. I've used the same CH HOTAS going on 8 years and never have had something break/malfunction _________________________ "No bucks, no Buck Rogers" Case: CoolerMaster HAF-922 MoBo: ASUS M4A89GTD Pro/USB3 PSU: Corsair HX750w CPU: AMD FX-8320 @ 4GHz RAM: 2x8GB Corsair Vengeance LP DDR3 1600 GPU: Palit GTX 560 Ti 2GB Display: Asus 25.5" @ 1920x1200 OS: Win7 Pro 64bit Audio: On-board AC'97
