Hopefully if i get a new computer, i'll move back to FSX. I'll search up FSGlobal Kyle, thanks. Guys over at Delta Virtual told me about FSGenesis...never heard of it
Cristian Avram Icon : (03 September 2010 - 02:50 PM) And i saw a pretty cheap tower at Staples the other day, HP pavillion, 1TB hardrive, iCore3 processor, Mobile intel 512 HD graphic card, 4GB ram. All this for $579. No monitor. I'd say thats pretty good for FSX!
Flycav.com Icon : (03 September 2010 - 04:46 PM) Actually, no its not, sorry to burst your bubble. The Core i3 is pretty much the replacement for the Core 2 Duo, and that graphics card is integrated, you need a high-end one by NVIDIA or ATI for FSX
Flycav.com Icon : (03 September 2010 - 04:48 PM) FSX is very CPU-intensive. I could probably get away with my current 9800GTX video card in a new PC, but you need AT LEAST a Core i5, if not an i7 for FSX. The i5 is okay, but its going to have limited capabilities down the road. The i7 is just a bit more expensive, and you get a whole lot more power for your money; and FSX demands CPU power. If you're building a new FSX PC, do NOT cheap out on the CPU
Flycav.com Icon : (03 September 2010 - 04:49 PM) That PC you saw at Staples isn't bad for $579 (although I could probably custom-build the same one cheaper), but that's more of a high-end FS9 PC. FSX will start on it, but you won't enjoy the flying at all.
Cristian Avram Icon : (03 September 2010 - 10:43 PM) Well there was a Gateway tower next to it, $150 more, but had an ATI radeon HD card, and i7 core. I used to have FSX on here, it actually ran ok, but my processer strength was only 1900Mhz, so it sucked, even though its a dual core
Christopher ... Icon : (03 September 2010 - 11:09 PM) I have FSX on my computer. Runs very smoothly, but even with the graphic sliders almost maxed out, the aircraft and Terminal building graphics are terrible. I have a 9800 (something or other) video card. Anyways, I'm still a faithful user of FS9 and only use 10 to dick around on
Cristian Avram Icon : (03 September 2010 - 11:30 PM) Well FS9 can still look true to life if you have an HD card, from the videos i've seen on youtube. I'll stay with it until i can get a good enough computer for X, and money to rebuy my addons >.
Cristian Avram Icon : (04 September 2010 - 01:29 AM) GAH! i have to work tomorrow until 4pm my time (MTN time) I dont wanna miss the fly in!
Steve Arkell Icon : (04 September 2010 - 04:51 AM) I'll be there!
Flycav.com Icon : (04 September 2010 - 07:18 AM) So will I...just hope I have enough time for the whole YVR-YYZ run!
Christopher ... Icon : (04 September 2010 - 02:41 PM) I'll try to be there this afternoon. Might just do a short hop.
Cristian Avram Icon : (04 September 2010 - 03:14 PM) i'll be home at like 10 after 4, so if i do a hop from Boston you think 'ill catch some of you guys there?
Flycav.com Icon : (04 September 2010 - 04:42 PM) Maybe
Flycav.com Icon : (04 September 2010 - 04:43 PM) I'm running late, so I switched to YYC-YYZ...in preflight right now

Cristian Avram Icon : (04 September 2010 - 10:18 PM) I'm like always the only CDN flight on vatsim...
