...and if someone ever mentions DUEL core again I will go crackers... :o...!

Say after me...

..."Dual core"...

...and again...

..." DUAL CORE!"...

...thank-you... ;D...!

Paul... 8)...!

P.S. ...must look further into this idea of getting a PC (Personal Computer?) and a graphics card (whatever that is?) to play this FSX game... ::)...!



Challenge them to a dual.  Pistols at 10 yards. ;D

Does FSX support SLI? Las ttime I checked (a while back ago) FS9 did not support it, you'd actually lose framerates. I don't know if that has changed or what, but I figured I'd ask.

I find the best way to improve FPS is to take a couple of sleeping tablets about an hour before using FSX - that way I'm nice & lethargic & everything else just seems to be going quicker, FSX runs lovely like that.
