PMDG 747...will it run?

Postby adkleaddog » Sat May 17, 2008 9:16 am

Will the PMDG 747 run well on a P4HT, 3.4Ghz processor?

Thanks, Wii!

It looks like an awesome product...

Any other feedback would be appreciated before I buy.

I enjoy the Heavies quite a bit.

A PIV, mono-core CPU is already not enough to run FSX alone, so the PMDG 747 and FSX..
EDIT: I had this CPU before, on my old rig. The CPU power was just enough to fly very slow planes, with few autogen and few AI. Running such an heavy plane as the PMDG 747 is going to be painfull.

I would say it would be better to try to run it on FS9 instead.
