Any opinions about my poor hardware?
elprim replied to elprim's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Great. My fears were baseless then. I knew msfs was initially relatively easy on the system but I figured after 12 World Updates, added weather enhancements an AI traffic it has become performance killer suited only for newest generation of hardware. -

Yes I plan to do some overclocking. The original 3.50 GHz has been enough to keep my XPlane + Toliss Airbus combination on ~40-45 FPS. But now I will need all the power I can squeeze out. I will try Bert's recommendation: 4.1 -

Many thanks to all of you. I have a much better perspective now and things look much better than I thought. Yes, I was initially put off by reading so many posts with 11-12000 processors and 4090 cards in their signatures, while I can't even run win11 nor install an nvme ssd. Ok, so heading to Steam with my credit card. Thank you once again. -
As always very late to the show, I would love to try MSFS, but I believe there is no trial (as in Xplane). Is it worth even considering spending $60 to run MSFS on my 10+ years old pc? I7 4770K (3.5 GHz) 16G memory GTX 1660 Ti (6G) I read it works quite well on old hardware, but mine is maybe bit too old. Still I remember seeing similar specs in some of your signatures. I would be satisfied with default aircraft/scenery (at least for the time being) and with fps around 20. I have single monitor 24'' 1920x1200 Any advice? Daniel

Navigraph 2020 survey results: MSFS is the winner!
elprim replied to EvidencePlz's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
I bet someone is still using Microsoft Flight. Maybe so rarely that it didn't make it to the list. -
I love fsuipc. I hate the reason fsuipc exists. Do we really still need this kind of addons? Can't developers finally built features like this natively into the sim? I remember using it maybe 15 years ago. It's 2020. Once again I see endless stream of comming addons you have to use to have a decent sim, accompanied by endless tweaking and fight for fps. Sorry for the rant, it's a bit off-topic. Fspuic on it's own is great as a program.

Low Bandwidth Reported/Default scenery looks bad
elprim replied to Dillon's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
So what is exactly your speed (lowest and avg)? I can squeeze only 10 Mb/s out of my modem (by Ookla). Would it be flyable? -
Thanks for this. It encouraged me to purcase. I have I7 4770K, GTX 1660Ti 6Gb, same resolution.and memory. Even "poor" simmers like us will enjoy for a while, and next year when big birds come (pmdg and co.) I'll think about upgrade.

February 20th, 2020 – Development/Insider Update
elprim replied to ChaoticBeauty's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Like most, I am thrilled with every new video from developers but also increasingly concerned: how much will this cost? Such effort and level of details could easily justify the $500+ price for some business application of the same complexity. With each new update we are pleasently surprised by MS and I hope at the release there will be one more pleasent surprise by announcing a reasonable price tag, wether one time or subscription. -
FEDEX Athens to Dubai: Tri-Holer for the win..
elprim replied to HighBypass's topic in The AVSIM Screen Shots Forum
Great pics of my favorite ac. I'll have to take your word for it. I see only the hangar in the background 😎 -
Beautiful. But, as I always mention, I would like to see some list of add-ons used and basic pc spec. (Nitpicking: are baro settings supposed to still be Std while landing? Just kidding)

Living in SE Europe it's hard for me to believe that someone from USA/Canada considers $70 to be too much for such a complex plane. The fact is that prices of top addons have exceeded $100 long time ago and I'm afraid sometime next year we might see planes between $150-200. Now 777 at almost twice as Cloudmaster, that's something I myself can't afford too.

BEST REALISM 2017 ORBX INNSBRUCK !
elprim replied to karmelofsx's topic in Aviation and Flight Sim Video Forum
Beautiful. Hard to tell the difference between RW and sim these days. -
Very nice - but as I wrote in another thread, I would really appreciate if all posters develop a habit to give some more specs at least on what is beyond default. DS

Ok, this sounds encouraging. Thank you both for your analisys. I'll definitely buy it (and if disappointed I can always rollback to fsx). (This hobby is getting more and more expensive)
