New System

Featured Replies

Captains,I'm considering buying a new system for my simming. The new 737ngx works fine on the one I already havebut the scenery, traffic, weather and graphics are all nearly at there lowest settings. I need to be able to have a system torun everything at a high setting to get the full benefit of flying the ngx.Has anyone bought their system or had any dealing with a company called 'Wired 2 fire'?I would like to know your opinions if you have - good or bad. Many thanks guys! Jim

If you're interested in doing so, you can build a top notch PC for less money than buying a prebuilt. Especially if you're able to scavenge a few parts from your current desktop. It isn't difficult at all.

Hello Jim, There are many threads with same question about "building the system" like yours. Just search the forum and you will find tons of answers regarding this. :)for example this one: http://forum.avsim.net/topic/349035-sometimes-work-pays-new-pc-are-these-specs-ok/ It will not answer your question about Wired 2 fire, but I completely agree, that building your own system is much better and less expensive.Good luck!

Just do what I did when I built my new system....consult the regular posters signatures. You'll find a common thread of the I5-or I7-2600k.
