Postby 757200ba » Sat Jan 10, 2009 2:38 pm

I build this system for fs9. Please give me your opinions , and if you would change something in here, and if you have tips? thanks. My idea is to have a machine to hold fs9 , with adds (scenery and planes traffic) and no low fps. (like 20 to 25 fps).
Many thanks

MB - Giga-byte P35 - DS4
Processor - Intel Pentium D CPU 2.8 oc to 3.2  1meg cache (i dint go more than that)
Cooler - Zalman 9500
2Gb Ram DDRII Pc 4800 (303 mhz)
BFG Nvidia 7950 GT OC 256 Megs
400 W Power Supply
1 Western Digital 320 GB Sata 16 Meg cache 3GB/s
1 Western Digital 120 GB Sata   8 Meg
Nec DVD - RW

Please give me your ideas

Looks fine to me...;)...!

If you run it, and you are getting 20 FPS and smooth flights with almost everything Maxed, then you are O.K...;)...!

Try it...!

Close to my specs (though your PSU may be marginal), which runs FS9 maxed out. Even runs FSX well at medium to medium high setting.

Be sure to employ Nick's system optimizations..

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.

Aye ... same here. Those specs are close to my machine though I would beef up your PSU a bit as - like Dave said - it's a little marginal.

And ALWAYS listen to the things Nick tells you. Very educational. I would suggest that you'd apply them too ...

Bottom line: yes, that machine will run FS9 very nice ...
