Hi! I wonder, what machine (not a supermachine that needs a bunch of money) could work with all FS9 settings to max and not stutter with a heavy airport scenery and a meteo overcast.I

It depends on what addons you have installed. With your setup and default aircraft you should have no problems. My old machine was a Pentium 4 3.2ghz 3GB of ram and ATI X1950 512MB graphics. I could land the PMDG 747F at most major airports with addon scenery (all sliders max except cloud draw distance). I should add I also used a little dell optiplex 2.0ghz 512 mb computer to run active sky, Navigraph servinfo etc.I upgraded to a quad core machine for FSX but went back to fs9 and nothing seems to make this machine sweat.Rob

Rob: Thanks for your help. I think that your machine is very affordable.I
