Anyone care to comment on the computer horsepower needed for the FS9- PMDG MD11?My 5+ year old 'puter runs PMDG 747 nicely in 2D with a few FS9 settings backed off. Question: Is MD11 likely to use more or less computer HP than the 747? (2D only- not interested in virtual since I run triple mons-triple views.)Opinions welcome!Alex Reid

I'd presume that if it runs the 744 ok, it'll run the MD-11 ok. Just based on my own personal experience though - haven't a clue about any 'technical' differences.

I remember well reading in some similar threads in the PMDG forum that the MD-11 was easier on resources than the 747.EDIT: I found one, http://forums1.avsim.net/index.php?showtopic=242891&hland another, http://forums1.avsim.net/index.php?showtopic=239681&hl

IMHO, it's lighter than 747, feels like it at least.

Agreed with all above. It is better on resources than the 747. (And a lot of fun too...)
