I am currently running MS FSX on: AMD Athlon XP 3000+ 2.10GHZ with 1GB of DDR Ram 80Gb Hard Drive and a 128MB Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 Graphics Card and i am finding it very sluggish about 15 FPS max. Today i purchased AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200 Socket AM2 2.2GHz 1MB 1000FSB MSI AM2 VIA K8M890 MATX Audio Lan DDR2 NVIDIA GeForce 7300 LE 256MB DDR2 PCI-E DVI 80GB SATA Hard Drive 1GB of DDR 2 Ram (will upgrade to 2 GB's). Will this help?

It will help a little, but not nearly as much as you think. I think you probably should have consulted with people here first before doing that, because if I were going to spend that $$$ I would have bought other hardware, that will perform better in FSX at the same price.You really should post this in the hardware forum. This is Hangar Chat which is where us flight junkies talk about flying stuff.RhettAMD 3700+ (@2530 mhz), eVGA 7800GT 256 (Guru3D 93.71), ASUS A8N-E, PC Power 510 SLI, 2 GB Corsair XMS 3-3-3-8, WD 250 gig 7200 rpm SATA2, CoolerMaster Praetorian
