The PMDG 737 is very good on FPS...unless you use the VC, which is the area for me and many others that the highest framerate drop acurrs.

I personally think if you have a semi good video card, AND atleast 512 RAM, but if you could get 1-2 GIG you should be well off

The 1-2 gig is when you go to get another payware aircraft since some of them are heavier on the FPS

I dont have much of a frame rate drop using the VC, and even if the frames drop, its still remains quite fluid, but then again I used Ramsa's FS-GS service to get everything I could out of my sim
My life is like the movie Office Space

From my experience with both, the PMDG NG 600/700 VC is pretty rough on the framerates, whereas the NG 800/900's VC was built using more framerate-friendly methods and  it works very smoothly. POSKY could learn from them! I barely use my A330 VC version anymore.

I fly the 600/700 and have no diference in frames between the 2D and VC.
