Hi all,
I've used a laptop for the past 8 years, the wife bought me that because I was shut away upstairs and not with her.
Now based on it being that old, the frame rates were very low but it could run Quake, 2 3 and quake 4 fine.
For the past 5 months the wife had been 'awkward' every time I was looking at gaming laptops, at Christmas I found out why,
my lovely wife who has always supported my flying, real full size and radio control and my full size sim adventure had bought me a
Dell 15 Inspiron, it's the I7 7th gen 7700HQ version with 1050 graphics set as the main graphics card, 8gb ram, 128ssd +1TB for the main storage,
running windows 10 64 bit.
Now the problems with my addons and win 10 had been solved, plus getting some help from just flight to get my addons for fs9 running as well, my FSX
with my demanding 737 addon runs at a minimum 70 fps and upto 170fps.
Ai ship and traffic is turned down but the quality of everything else is set to very high.
The laptop cost more than £200 more than what I was considering so I have a good smooth system, with regards the temperature, I get very little more than the
ambient temp of the room with the fan boosting every 15mins or so but for maybe 5 secs at a time.
One bonus that surprised was the in game recorder that works superb, not the recorder of the games but a recorder built into the system.
No more fraps etc
regards
Steve
May the Mynd be with you.
So far my number of landings either passenger or pilot equal my number of takeoffs.
FSX Gold Acc, P3D V4, FS2020
