Great site.

EDIT: How does this compare for those of you who have already got it?

Well I tried it on my lappy. Quite pleased with the results.

It says I pass with flying colors, the problem that it can't know is my graphics card uses 400 or so MB of my system ram.... Thanks for this site, I will use it to check if I can run games.... if its acurate

Before you get too excited read this.

What it does
System Requirements Lab looks at your computer's hardware and system software to determine whether or not your current system can run a product. Each of your computer's components is evaluated to see how well it meets the minimum and recommended requirements for specific products.

If they're going by the unrealistic minimum requirements on the box I reckon most computers would pass with flying colours.

Yeah right...

So do you have FSX? If you do is that accurate? That's the question really. It needs people who can state their performance levels and post their specs with this. Otherwise it doesn't mean much.

I think its acurate, Because the only thing holding my computer back is Mr. 7300LE and it says my 3800+ CPU is one bar from max.... Bah!

Cheers, Gunny

heres my system on that site

I think it should be concluded by now that these so called system checks are never going to be any more useful than spam mail.

Went past ALL recommended requirments in everything!!! But I still cant run FSX.... The best FPS I get is 13fps and in areas with trees and houses, buildings, ect. I get 4fps if best. This doesnt make any sence. I have went far and beyond recommended and I still cant run FSX.

Whats your setup grunt? Your computer is as fast as the weakest link  ::) mine happens to be a 7300LE

Cheers, Gunny

Maybe i

Whats your setup grunt?

I have a AMD64 4200 X2, GeForce 7900GT KO running in SLI, 250Gig Sata HD, 2Gig of RAM. I might have to try those new drivers for nvidia SLI.

Try some CFG tweeks and defragmentation and dont expect anything over 20FPS at best! if its smooth, its good  ;D

Cheers, Gunny (And if it isnt smooth, well, your screwed)

The only thing I added to my free computer was the $5 yard sale video card, lol (I got the computer for free because some thing was wrong with it and it only need XP reinstalled but to get this for free not half bad)

These web sites are stupid. They just collect your system info and don't tell you anything about your computer. If you want to know how your system does download the demo.

BTW Gunny how is the slideshow? LOL  ;D
