Hey guys,Recently ive bin looking to take my simming further.PC Stats:3ghz Interl H/T (clocked to 3.4ghz)6600GTAsus P5P8002x150gig IDE480w PSUI wanna let you know my limitations here before i get ideas i cant fill.Im 15 years old and live in Perth, i withold a parttime job at the local Target earning a meager $10 an hour (Not complaining :D)I wanna build a desktop cockpit and im thinking of getting some LCD's (2x17") to go along with my current one. I understand i can run the cockpit on one and the gauges/fmc on the other. but what i really want to do is have one screen "Captain View" and the other "F/O View" Is this possible?Whats the best value for money flight yoke/pedals and throttle. (CUrrently using X52 Saitek but the realism factor isnt there. its more for rotor-heads and flyboys)Relative cost for a set-up like [email protected]

Hi Rodney,Do you want to simulate the big iron? Then you would need some glass cockpit software. General aviation? There are some programes that let you run analog gauges on a old (cheap) client pc. For a nice setup I suggest buy /get 1 or 2 older PII-300-500 mhz machines. I see them on the Dutch ebay for about
