July 25, 201114 yr Dear Friends and Pilots,after a long time without FS i want to start again. I lost parts of my mind and the whole FS stuff (PC, Software...) because after an accident i was in a hospital for over 8 month. I tell you this, because you could ask yourself what is he writing about.For me its a complete new start, so pleasse be patient if my questions make no sense for you :Batting Eyelashes: I own the Original Disk of FS9 and a couple of other FS9 software (Planes, Scenery, Addons, etc..) So, i dont want to upgrade to FSX.I have to buy a new computer. What is your suggestion abbout the PC System for FS9What MoBo, RAM, CPU, GPU, etc. do I need for a very good performance.Is WinXP better, or Win7?Please excuse my bad english, i am german and english is not my native language.Thank you for your answers :Praying: Wern _______________________________________________________________________________________Best regards / Schöne GrüßeWerner
July 25, 201114 yr Hi WernDo you want to build it yourself of do you prefer a prebuilt system? Do you plan on overclocking? What's your budget?your english seems very good BTW ^_^
July 25, 201114 yr Author Hi Dario,thank you for your fast answer. I prefer a prebuilt system, i am not able to build it myself :Shame On You: My Idea was to order the complete stuff in a Online-Shop, they build it all together and ship the ready PC to my address. What is overclocking?My Budget is up to € 700.- excl. Monitor. Would that be enough? RegardsWern _______________________________________________________________________________________Best regards / Schöne GrüßeWerner

July 25, 201114 yr Author Hi Dario,this is the link to the store.My storeI think it sounds good. What would you change?Do you know alternates?Thank you and regardsWern _______________________________________________________________________________________Best regards / Schöne GrüßeWerner

That thing can run FSX like a dream, so if you ever decide to take the leap, you are covered

July 25, 201114 yr If i understand you correct, you mean i should buy this.What System would you recomend: WinXP or Win7?Thanks againRegardsWernIf you are 100% positive you'll never switch to FSX, you could even get away with something not so powerful and save some money, like this oneThe one you linked has basically the same processor (at a bit higher frequency) and can be overclocked, which means that you can manually increase it's frecuency and therefore it's performance. That helps a lot in FSX, but it's not necessary for FS9The graphics card is a bit better tooSo in short, if you know you'll stick with FS9, pick this one: http://www.tecstore.net/Produkt/453536/PC-System-Gamer-Special-Pro-Aerocool-VS-4w-Intel-Core-i5-2400If you think you'll try FSX someday, this one: http://www.tecstore.net/Produkt/453387/PC-System--High-End--Pro-Sharkoon-AL4-Intel-Core-i5-2500K
July 26, 201114 yr Author Hi Dario,thank you very much for your help.I am thinking about FS9 or FSX and then will buy.You helped me a lotThanksWern _______________________________________________________________________________________Best regards / Schöne GrüßeWerner
