Glad to hear it paul, good news indeed.Actually to tell the truth if the update were to be exclusive to FSX id probably just get it and turn whatever sliders down to enjoy it and stay with the other add ons in FS9 which I foresee using for quite some time yet, nothing against FSX, just not ready for it yet:) in any case, the fact that you have updates on the drawing board for my fav aircraft is great news!And yes your system should be able to handle the FS727, in fact most systems should, it

Had exactly the same results Just purchased the Core2Duo 6600 and I was very satisfied with out of the box performance. I run my sim on a dual screen setup with 1900x1200 for VC and 1600x1200 for 2d popup panels. I run most sliders except clouds maxed out and it runs steady at 26fps locked except in heavy thunderstorms where it would drop to about 12-14fps. Wanting to see if I couuld get any performance boost in the heavy thunderstorm scenario I decided to overclock step by step to see the framerate increase(I thought) I would get. I was both surprised and disappointed when I slowly climbed in steps from 2.4Ghz to 3.1Ghz and an amazing result...absolutely no increase in FPS all the way(YES, I did set the FPS to unlimited in FS9 display setup). I also have a very overclocking friendly motherboard, AB9 PRO with a special utility to overclcok called Uguru, but alas no success. I have the ATI850 which I find to be an excellent card but I do wonder if it represents some kind of limitation, but my next purchase will be the upcoming radeon monster, maybe that will yield better results.CheersJon T.

For me it

Thank you for that bit of information Gary, I had no idea it worked like that.This pretty much makes the deal for me, 2x24" will be the way to go. This makes more sense anyway considering I already have a 24". I look forward to see how this works, I

Well, I checked Nvidias site and acc. to the 8800 specs the max resolution of the card is 2560x1600=4.096.000 pixels. I

JS2x 24" does sound good. In fact I never considered it because my current ATI 850xt doesn

I agree, you do need a giant videocard to run at 1900x1200 or above and I think the new 8800 will be up to the job. I in fact know 2560x1600 is something the best videocards allow and handle, just wondering if FS9 itself gives this as an option when the equipment is up to it. I myself have the 24" Dell + a 21" viewsonic which I use for popup windows.As far as the 30" practicality is concerned I have read reviews about it by gamers, and although all did love the monitor some did mention that it

Do you guys know if fs9 will work in full resolution of the 30" Dell screen, something akin to 2560x1600. I want to get it but it

Correct me if im wrong, but DX10 effects will not appear until a patch from the Aces team activates all the benefits of DX10, even if you have FSX running on Vista, right? By the way I

K, well, guess we will find out in a few weeks then:)If it

Hello there simmmers, I have a question... I am running flight simulator on a powerfull rig with the Dell 24" widescreen and a 21" Viewsonic Lcd with the respective resolutions of 1900x1200 for VC and a second monitor 1600x1200 for radios, throttle pedestal etc. I was wondering,..I

Hello simmers....I recently realised how much I miss flying around Chigago Meigs even though the airport isn

Thanks guys, you pretty much confirmed what I thought, the screen is worth it! As far as clearance sales are concerned, I
