Sweet shots Fab! Good to see you make the transition to FSX! How's it handling?

Quite nice, but I think the undoupt technol. advance of FSX isn't really visible at high altitudes. In fact I think the dafault water in FSX dosn't look as good as my tweaked FS9 water at 30000 feet. That's why I fly FSX slow and low or very high (space). I didn't uninstall my FS9 and in short terms I'll keep flying the heavy fleet in FS9.

FSX runs smooth, (nearly) everything on the max. I'm not a self-shadowing fan and my plane traffic is all default and on a low lovel, cars are on the max. To run all AI on the MAX I guess I'd need more and faster RAM (kept the DDR333 1Gb RAM from my AMD1800), and I would have to buy a more epensive card. My new system started, because I bought a 7600GT AGP slot. Then I was looking for a new mainboard with AGP and found out, that there weren't many out there, All are having PCIe now. So I bought an old style board and put a AMD 4200+ X2 64Bit on it, still very fast compared to my AMD1800, but you get what you pay for and I didn't pay much for all together.

Cheers,
Fabian
