I would say 1 gig is minimum and maximum for FS 2004. Anything more will not do #### ;)But yeah my 6800 ULTRA of course my sim looks better with it because it

Tuning and tweaking are just as critical as the platform. You can harvest tweaks from the forums (although not all may be useful), or check out www.fs-gs.com. I found them useful and was able to get decent performance on my aging 1.7GHz/768Mb/Ti4200-128Mb system.Jon

Disregard what people have told you about DUAL DPUs for FS. FS9 CANNOT Handle a Dual CPU, the only advantage to Dual CPUs would be having 1 processor for the game, and use the other for addons.I Have a Dual CPU System myself.
