Ok, I had been up a little too long and seeing some pretty lousy suggestions just gets my blood boiling.
Im not saying everyone needs $2,000 worth of computer parts and I never said anything about SLI, its lousy as well.
A 3500 computer should manage to run FS-X to run real well in medium quality or somewhere in that area, that is not outdated technology, older but
not outdated. A P4 2.4 Ghz is outdated, as is the X300.
One more thing, before advising people to buy a $500 video card, do some research, FS-X will be optomised for Direct3D 10, which no card has been
produced using such technology. Once Direct3D cards hit the scene that video card you payed $500 is now obsolete.
And Im not talking about minimum specs, I should have specified that. Im talking max settings, or least high quality.
FS-X will be able to utilize dual core CPUs.
Im sorry I snapped but I had to say something
