Surface Book 2 and P3D

Featured Replies

Hi everyone,

 

I had a computer die on me about a year ago and I am not in a position to replace it right now with something made for flight simming :(  That being said I have a Surface Book 2 through work which has a GTX 1050 graphics card and a i7 8650u processor.  Is there any chance this can run p3d decently?  Most of my flying is the pmdg 738.  I do have add-on scenery etc too.

 

I just dont want the heavy start of installing ,tweaking, etc. only to find out I get 3 fps and it is unusable.

 

Even though its a work computer there is no problem putting legitimate software on it

Hey,

P3D gives 1 fps on Surface Pro 4 (intel video card - can never major 3d, but it does dos games good lol) but you have a Surface Book 2 with dedicated video card - and you have 1050 - I do not see why P3D will not run, infact it should run pretty good.  Install it and see it.  Just do base install first and test it out.  Even I am curious to find out.

You have i7 with 1050gtx - looks good
