Question.

Postby 757200ba » Sun Sep 21, 2008 6:34 pm

I have a question, i think its the number one question.
Ok we know that fs9 does not work with dual core.So whats the best configuration in terms of hardware (single core speaking), that we can have for a fs9 with everything in terms of adds like airports, traffic and planes.
This is my system what would you change? What upgrades do you think are necessary, to improve this system?

I'm running a Pentium dual-core with no problems.

You should be able to install FS2004 on a dual core system but it will not make use of both cores like FSX does. The best single core cpu is one with hyperthreading this is as close as you can get to having two cores as it emulates it pretty good. And in a sense will actually run FS2004 beter than a dual core system would unless the single core system is a slow one. 8-)
