I have been using FSX on Windows 7 and 10 since it was released in 2006(?). It was a great sim for what I used it for. Flying a Continental 757 out of KEWR. I had the game "tweaked" the way I wanted. Everything was great and enjoyable.

However, I dumped Windows 7/10 and switched to using Linux Mint last month (and loving it!). I also downloaded/installed the latest STEAM for the Software manager.

I currently have 2 systems running Linux Mint 22.3 and Steam for games. (My first time using Steam)

Here are the system specs...

System 1 (2013).

Motherboard: ASUS M4A87T AM3 AMD 870
CPU: AMD AthlonII X3 Triple-Core 3.3GHz
PSU: Enermax 500W
Memory: Kingston 8GB (2x 4GB) Value Ram DDR3 1333MHz
Video Card: ASUS ENGT430/DI/1GD3(LP) 1GB DDR3 1600MHz

System 2 (2020).

Motherboard: ASUS Prime H310M-E R2.0 Intel H310 Chipset, LGA 1151, HDMI
CPU: INTEL CORE i3-8350K 4-Core 4.0 GHz, LGA 1151, 91W TPD
PSU: EVGA 600 BQ, 80 PLUS Bronze 600W, Semi Modular, ATX
Memory: KINGSTON 16GB DDR4 2400Mhz, CL17 DIMM
Video Card: EVGA GeForce GT 1030, 1189 - 1430MHz, 2GB SDDR4

I am think of downloading and trying X-Plane 11. Are these systems OK for running it? (I might have to turn the game settings down to low..)

Thanks for your help. I will have more questions after I try to install it.

Welcome to Avsim!  We do have an X-Plane forum, I would suggest you post your question there.

Thank you. Will post this question there...
