If your looking for the file conversion programe to get a compressed PMDG livery file it can be found in the livery manager - right click your livery on the right hand side and you will find the 'export livery' option.Hope this helpsAlex

Ace stuff,Cheers for all the help Dazz, much appreciated.Time to get buying!ThanksAlex

For the RAM i'll get This or a Scan.co.uk equiv.. and for CPU cooler i'll be getting ThisThanksAlex

Ah ok, i will most likely stick with the 520W, looks like it will do the job.This is my case: Coolermaster Elite 430 Black Mid Tower Computer CaseI've already got this case to hand and its well up to the job from what i've seen.ThanksAlex

Ok. thanks for all the help and guidance.I've come to a pritty much final decision on the following and would like to know if this would run as a stable system.Intel core i5-2500k CPUAsus P8P67 full ATX MB(baring in mind i'm now going for a new build)EVGA GTX460 1GB SCAntec High Current Gamer 520W PSUI'm most concerned that that PSU will be up to the job for that lot plus hard drive, CPU fans etc.Thanks,Alex.

Hi,Just a quick update on this one.I've decided to go for the Intel Core i5-2500K, however i've been told somewhere down the line that micro-ATX mother boards don't overclock well. Is this true? if so i'd be looking at going the full way with a PC new build so i can run a full size mother board as i really want that extra umph to run FSX and other games.Also, power supplies.. i've looked at quite a few and noticed that you can get a 600W PSU for around £20.. if i am going to go with the new build i'd want to save as much ££ on other components while going the full way with CPU, GPU and Mother Board.I've got this one in my sights at the moment.. will that be up to the job? it has 24A in the first 12v Rail... Thanks,Alex

right, ok thanks for that.

Ok, Thanks for the help, Its greatly appreciated.Hopefully i'll be emptying my pockets some time soon then! I'll get a chat going with the guys at OCuk. Thanks again for the helpAlex

Lol, Ok, thanks for the help, I'm getting somewhere now! I'm looking at this one for now, obviously will have to get the power supply as well as the graphics card ontop.I would imagine i would be well onto the road for smooth frames in FS and most modern games with that setup?!Thanks,Alex

yes thats the one.

Looking at the back theres no sticker there however there is a side sticker, its an Advent - PQD5002, Rating 230V ac, 4A 50-60htz. not sure if thats what your after.Thanks for that site, will come in handy.

I'm honistly not sure, I havent opened the case to take a look, leaving all the installation to someone else.. I don't trust myself with all that!

budget will probs be £350 - £450 max

Hi, Thanks for the reply,I'm willing to get a new motherboard as well as a new power supply. I'm not sure exactly what MB i will require for the AMD 970 and i think i will have to upgrade the power supply to 600W, all depending on what i have now. I'll have a look at what i currently have closer to when i'm getting all this done.With that in mind, what do you think the effect will be on frames with the AMD 970, and the GTX 460 installed?Thanks Alex

Hi, I'm looking at upgrading my computer so it handles FSX with add-ons such as REX, addon aircraft, AI and addon airports as well as having a most of the sliders to the right without sacrificing the frames.I'm also upgrading so i can get the most out of the latest games on the market so i've done my research with that in mind as well.My system is currently:AMD Phenom 9650 Quad Core 2.30GHz4GB RAM (3.12GB usable)500GB Hard DriveNVIDIA GeForce GT 240FOXCONN A6VMX Mother BoardI'm looking at getting:AMD Phenom II X4 3.5 GHz ProcessorNVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 1GBI'm not sure on what kind of impact that will have on the frames and if its even possible with the current mother board, that's really why i'm posting here before i do anything!Advice would be greatly appreciated, ThanksAlexEDITI've not got too much money to play with so want to get the most out of what i can with the budget im on

Thanks for the replys, so yeah, looks like i might have to upgrade my system. For the meantime, would like to try this.. How is it possible to overclock the processor? Thanks,Alril40

Hi, I'm running FSX on my system, i'm wondering how i can improve the frame rates without too much money being spent. I heard somewhere that ram is the key to getting a smoother game on FSX? Not sure if that's true. like others on this forum, I am able to play state of the art game titles with near enough no stuttering, so i'm not sure what's the case with FSX. I'm not really a computer expert so i'm not sure what's exactly relevant, but i currently have,AMD Phenom 9650 Quad Core 2.30GHz4GB RAM (3.12GB usable)500GB Hard DriveNVIDIA GeForce GT 240Any help would be greatly appreciated, ThanksAlril40
