November 24, 200619 yr I'm looking at buying a new PC primarily for running FSX as my current computer is a few years old and not fast enough for FSX. I can run FSX on my PC now, but it's a bit slow and "jerky" in the graphics. With the specs below, could a technical advisor from PMDG give me an idea of how well FSX will run on this new PC?- Intel Core 2 Duo 2.13Ghz (1066 Mhz FSB) E6400- 2Gb Ram (2 x 1024MB) DDR2-SDRAM- 300Gb Hard Drive (7200 rpm)- 512Mb (DDR2) NVIDIA GeForce 7600GS 3D PCI-Express Graphics (with TV-out port and DVI capabilities)- Lightscribe DL DVD/RW DriveFull specs here:http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/au/en/ho/WF...2-78004585.htmlI would really appreciate some advice from someone in-the-know at PMDG and hope to hear from someone soon.Kind regards, Matthew Bellette

November 24, 200619 yr Commercial Member You're gonna want a GF 8 series card, not the old 7 series... the 8's will be able to run FSX under DX10 in Vista once the update comes out. Ryan MaziarzFor fastest support, please submit a ticket at http://support.precisionmanuals.com
November 24, 200619 yr I'm going to wait till at least early 2007.Vista, DirectX and pricing should be a bit better..maybe..And the other guy is correct about 8000 series cards...I just got a 7600GS, its ok..but my machine is more of the limiting factor.
