The software is designed to work with a standard 2 or 3 button mouse only.
Three button mouse: Midway does not provide support for this hardware.

@Atazhaia I think what they're trying to say is
The game supports 2- and 3-button mice, but we won't help you if the mouse itself goes wrong.

windows gets the 1070 because it has waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more compatible games than the linux one does.

Can't you split them finer and have 1020 in each?

MidwayIs this a port of the arcade light-gun shooter? If so, that makes sense as the only control in the arcade version was the light gun.

@hungrier Linux gaming is a thing, believe it or not! Also, it wins over macOS gaming due to actually being able to have proper gaming hardware.
@accalia Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Even though I use Linux more, the more powerful card probably makes more use in Windows.
@Jaloopa If only I would have had a 980 and a 1080, then I could have split them into two 1030s, as that's a card that actually exists.
But yeah, I will wait until after Dreamhack for reconfiguring my computers anyway, in case I manage to pick up some new hardware. And I will end up with a spare R7 370, as I will be replacing that when my test rig gets repurposed into a gaming rig.
-

1030s
oh ick..... honestly unless you are going for "i literally just need more outputs for 2D applications (windoes desktop)" the X30 series lames literally no sense, and if that is the case you'll probably get better performance for cheaper from team red.
i never recommend anything less than x60 for any application, and even then that's only if you don't want to get the RX x80 because team red is icky. the x70 series is where the cost to value curve tops methinks

In Chinese, the word 青 means both 'blue' and 'green' :P

@accalia Yeah, I was just continuing the joke about combining and evenly splitting the cards. :P Considering how good Intel has gotten, the non-gaming Nvidia/AMD cards feel kinda useless nowadays if you got an iGPU. From what I read, Iris Pro with L4-cache is pretty much entry-level gaming GPU performance from an iGPU too. It's a bit harder to find desktop versions of those CPUs, though.
After GPU I also need to decide on storage for Windows so I know how many of my SSDs I should move to that computer. 60 for OS drive + 500 for games hopefully enough for pure gaming, if I can get away with 60 for OS through optimization or if I need to bump that up to 120. Maybe a HDD for spare/misc stuff too.

I would recommend 120 over 60 for a Windows disk, at this point. The new CU servicing model does come with a cost of more drive space required for updates.

The new CU servicing model does come with a cost of more drive space required for updates.not to mention that it seems like 60GB internal drives are starting to slide up the bad end of the graph where the reputable manufacturers aren't making that size in any significant quantity (if at all) anymore so you get either higher prices for the good manufacturers or sketchy manufacturers. Neither one is good. just get the 120/128 from a good manufacturer and be done but good with it. :-)

@Mikael_Svahnberg How long before you need to reboot it for updates?
-
@accalia Yeah, if I'd be buying new I'd get a 120 as an OS disk. I'm looking at my current ones, however, but I suspect I should maybe should retire the 60 currently in use due to size. Apparently I am using it as the Windows disk atm, with 40GB used.
