737NG Install vs FSX sp2 or FSX w/acceleration pack

Recommended Posts

Hello All

 

PMDG states addons require FSX/SP2. I have FSX with Acceleration pack installed. MS says do not install SP2 if you have acceleration pack.

 

So, is it permissable / correct to install 737NGX into FSX w/acceleration pack and ignore the sp2 requirement?

 

Thanks in advance!

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
Minimum

OS: Windows XP/Windows Vista/Windows 7 (latest service packs), Flight Simulator X with SP2 or Acceleration installed. 
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo or AMD equivalent
RAM: 2GB if only running the NGX, 4GB if running other addons (scenery, traffic etc)
Video Card: DirectX 9 compatible with 512MB of video memory (examples: Nvidia 8800GT, AMD/ATI Radeon 4870) 

Best Performance 

OS: Windows 7 64-bit
Processor: Intel Core i5 or i7 (Sandy Bridge core) or better
RAM: 4GB+
Video Card: Nvidia GTX560 Ti, 570 or 580 with 1GB+ of video memory or better
Monitor: Widescreen 1920x1080+ 

PMDG *highly* recommends the use of 64-bit versions of Windows due to memory limitations in FSX.
 
Note sp2 "or" acceleration. So yes, it is correct

Thanks, the main "shop" page for FSX addons doesn't include the "or" so thanks for clarifying!
