Hello Chaps,Looking into buying a new system which would be just for FS2004. I have no interest in FSX as I think that FS2004 more than suits my needs. I am looking to be able to run FS9 at full settings fluidly.Your help as always is greatly appreciatedWindows Vista Ready Intel Core 2 Duo E6550 CPU 1GB nVidia 8600GT PCI-Express Graphics Card 2 x 1GB Kingston OR Corsair 667Mhz DDR2 Ram 320GB SATA 2 7200rpm Hard Drive 22x Dual Layer DVD +/- Rewriter Standard 450W PSU 5.1 Channel Sound 2 Front and 4 Back USB Ports Onboard 10/100 Ethernet - Broadband Ready 1 Year Parts & Labour Warranty The price for this system is

That looks pretty good, not sure how a 6550 compares to say a E8500.I'd probably get an E8500 to run FS9 as best as possible.

That looks like an older computer being sold at a clearance price (Windows Vista ready?). It looks adequate for FS9, especially at the price. If I was building it myself, I'd substitute an e8400 cpu at no cost increase and an 8800 series graphics card at 80% cost increase on the card.ArtBiostar TF560-A2+, Athlon 64X2-6000+, 4GB RAM, Geforce 8800GTS-320MB, 500W PSU, 250GB HD, FSX(SP1-SP2), Audigy SE sound, Vista Home Premium 32 bit, CH Yoke & Pedals, 22" WS LCD monitor
