March 15, 201313 yr Hi Colin, with MS Flight Sims most of the work is done by the CPU and this is usually what limits performance rather than the machines GPU (graphics). Laptops are restricted regarding the CPUs they can use because they have limited cooling capabilities, so generally they run slower processors than equivalent desktop machines. However as long as your expectations are not too high regarding performance then there is no reason why you can not use a laptop for FSX and I know many people do. If you are looking for a laptop specifically for FSX then in my opinion you need to concentrate on the CPU spec before the graphics. I hope this helps.
