Will CFS3 run on my computer?

Postby Spud » Mon May 26, 2003 1:09 pm

I have a 2.66 Ghz, 512mb ram, 128 ati radeon 9000 graphics card, 16x dvd, soundblaster audigy 2 sound card. Would someone please tell me if it will run well on my computer if at all before I buy it.  ???

Thanks

That's an excellent system with plenty of grunt and a powerful video card...you should have LOTS of problems getting CFS3 to run on it  :-/

Good System perfomance pal ::) ::)

look at mine

PIIII , 1700 mhz ,128 ram and the V Card
is the ATI 128 rage pro  ;D ;D Good one isn`t?

I`ll try to upgrade it into 256 ram in the future and then
I`ll upgrade the vid card to Radoen 7000 if i have the money.

Forget 256MB mate, 512MB (or better if you have XP!) is the only way to go with CFS3

As for the Ati Card, aim for one that starts with a "9" ;)

When I had 256MB, CFS 3 ran barely smooth enough to play.
Now that I have 512MB, (DDR 2700), CFS3 is very much improved. :o
All I need to do now is ditch my MX440 and I'll be really seeing the eye candy!  ::)

I just can't run any game or sim under 1280X1024X32. I need the eye candy. If it doesn't look good to me I just don't enjoy flying or playing it.

800X600 isn't even in my simming vocabulary.

But whatever floats your canoe or flies your combat aircraft.

Back in the mid 90's, 800X600 was state of the art but I've become spoiled over time.

Have a good flight all.
