Hardware Issues?

[Ashton Lawson]

This is just to see how people think there current hardware will run FSX.  I don't think many are going to put Brilliant (unless they're idiots...).

What do you think?

[wealthysoup]

Do you think that your current hardware will play FSX

yes

[Fozzer]

...probably...

My current setup will run FSX well enough to wait until Vista, Direct 10 is out, plus the hardware required.  This time next year I'll build a new rig.

Yup....... rather poorly.

[Fozzer]

Yup....... rather poorly.  Probably "OK"............ if you don't want to actually GET all the features you are paying for  :P  ;).

PS:  Preparing for a MASSIVE computer upgrade in the near distant future.  Again.  Somehow the $70 sim ends up actually costing FAR more than that  ;D.

...would that be a near future, or a distant future, John...?

Paul....It's almost exactly 15:42.... ...LOL... ...!

Paul,

Thanks for the "timecheck"... that helps me with the Euro Tour Hop #18 multiplayer scheduled for later today.  Comparing times, it looks like you are on GMT -1 there in the UK right now?

Hi John....
When I just read your 16:42 message here, my time was 16:48 UK Time......!

Sounds about right...!

Paul....  8)...!


Note that 16:48 is nearly 10minutes to 5 O'clock in the afternoon, (tea-time), for we "oldies".......!

i can only manage to run it with flight simulator 9 settings, no shiney water and ground traffic for me

[Hai Perso Coyone?]

I don't know

and quite frankly, I don't care either

[Delta_]

I think it will be ok on my system, but not how i will like it.  I'm waiting for DX10 gfx cards then upgrading to a new system with Vista and probably quad core by then.

[Tom.]

i know (as i have fsx beta) Systems that arnt brand new wont run it well atall

[Boca]

With a Venice core AMD64 3500+ and a XFX Nvidia 7600 GT, I wouldn't think so.  :(

But I'll tread water with this setup and not waste money till I am able to build a capable system next year without having to sell a Kidney to afford it.  I could easily upgrade my CPU right now, for instance, but what's the short-term point ?

Well with my stock built in GPU on this new computer I can run half settings at 1440X900 (My monitors size) so I imagine with a new PCI-E Card I can run medium high or high..... but as it stands now it runs it okay as I selected.... Cheers, Gunny (the half comes from running the demo)
