[FLEX1978 373]

I know a lot about f**king coumpters. The coumpter is blazing fast. I have the settings in flight simulator very high. Please stop saying it is slow since it is not slow.

Ahhh ok sorry, never realised you had a 'Coumpter' been trying to get my hands on one of those for while... ;) Dude just relax no one cares anyway, and it sounds like your about to make yourself ill...... :rolleyes:Ian, overclockers is a good place to start if you are based in the UK http://www.overclockers.co.uk/

Of course. That's why you use an aftermarket cooler.

OEM computers can't be overclocked at all. That's probably the main reason to stay away from Dell, HP, etc... (for FSX anyway)Usually overpriced, and with crappy PSU's that wont even allow a simple GPU upgrade.

Right. I was just pointing out that there is no reason to fear overclocking as long as you have a good cooler.

Yes, overclocking in the US wrecks processors, the only place where it works is the South Pole. :(

Keyboard warriors unite! Honestly, I think you need to growup a little with regards to your attitude and the way you post around these forums. You seem to be adamant that your computer is fast, contrary to what many people in the know have said. By today's standards your computer is slow, and the performance you get in fsx is not comparable to the latest hardware out there, and we don't need to see your computer in action to know that is slow, we can see that from the specs you posted. Perhaps saying your computer is "blazing fast" is a bit of wishful thinking eh?

It is fast the computer is only 6 month old.

It is fast the computer is only 6 month old.

And in those six months hardware has moved on a lot. Ok, "fast" can be a subjective term and for you it may be fine. But being fast enough for you does not mean it is fast for someone else. It also depends on what context were using it in, yes it will be fast for browsing the web, watching hd videos and things like that. But looking at the performance in fsx (and any other game) with high settings and fancy scenery and comparing It to the latest hardware out there...it is slow. That is a fact and can easily be seen by benchmarks on the popular tech sites. However, if it's fast enough for you then that's not a problem. As long as fsx performs how you want and you get enjoyment from it. That's what it's all about right? :)

FSX preforms very well at high settings and I also have Black ops call of duty and that runs fine to.
