Please help with new spec.....

Featured Replies

I'm thinking of buying a new system for FSX which is being 'specced' by the manufacturer as follows:i7 975 Extreme (3.33 GHz).ASUS P6T SE motherboard - i7 & i7 Extreme - ATX.6 GB triple-channel DDR3 RAM (1333 mHz) (Manufacturer unspecified).They're also specifying the Nvidia 1792MB GTX295 graphics card.Please help with these questions: 1. Is the above likely to give best FSX performance with 'intense' add-on scenery and aircraft (with no overclocking)?2. Is it worth going for 8 GB RAM rather than 6?3. Is that graphics card 'over the top'? (i.e. Will 1MB GTX285 be good enough?)Thanks for any advice and/or comments.....Toni.

1. Is the above likely to give best FSX performance with 'intense' add-on scenery and aircraft (with no overclocking)?
A thread in the FSX forum that might be of interest: http://forums1.avsim.net/index.php?showtopic=256364
2. Is it worth going for 8 GB RAM rather than 6?
No.
3. Is that graphics card 'over the top'? (i.e. Will 1MB GTX285 be good enough?)
That card has two GPUs which FSX cannot utilize. Go for an OC:ed GTX285 if you don't need the 295 for other programs.
