Hi,recently i've purchased a new Dell Inspron 1720 notebook. Because i need to wait a month untill the notebook will be shipped i was wondering how Flight Simulator X will run on my system?Intel core 2 Duo T7300 2,0GHz, 800MHz, 4MB L2-cache4GB RAM, 667 MHz Dual Channel DDR2nVidia GeForce Go 8600M GT 256MB DDR2160GB (5400rpm)17,0 inch WXGA screen (1440x900) with TrueLifeWill i be able to run FSX on med-high settings? I sure hope so! :)Many thanks.Thomas

Medium-high for scenery etc, but medium for AI traffic, and autogen

I see, thanks for the reply. What exactly is "autogen" ?

"Auto-Generating" trees and houses and stuff. FS decides where there ought to be a house or a pole (or a chicken stand) it creates a little 3D house or pole or whatever. It's a real CPU stressor, but I think you have the horsepower for at least a bit of slide bar action (in scenery settings). I was looking at that same laptop config too. Could you fly a pattern in a default airplane and give us some numbers?

Sure, but you'll have to wait a month ;)
