Graphics Anamoly w/GNS 530 and Milviz C310 (resolved)
sp7362 replied to sp7362's topic in RXP GNS 530W/430W V2
Resolved! Thanks so much. -
I hope there is something in a setting that will fix this, so far not an issue with the JustFlight Arrow. Please see video via the link. https://imgur.com/a/7paTSrH

Updates are available when the Garmin Trainer software is updated, or via a cost prohibitive Garmin database subscription.

Ok so I've got everything in the cart and ready to go. Plan on using existing 250GB WD drive and Radeon GPU (4500 I think) until I get more cash. This was a budget built for a system that will only do two things: run FSX and Xplane. I use REX, PMDG 737, and various other add on aircraft. I'm a pro pilot so I don't anticipate spending more than 10 hours per month in the sim. If you think I've $%&@ up with my components, or know of cheaper ones that will work just as/nearly well... please speak up. I'm a Mac devotee and have been trying to school myself on PCs. Major considerations were upgradability and SLI ability at some point. Thanks!!!

FSX system (build or buy)

This is great info. Thanks. -

Yes - GPU, PSU, RAM, and MOBO. -
FSX system (build or buy)
sp7362 replied to sp7362's topic in System Hardware: PC | MOBO | RAM | CPU | HDD | SSD | PSU etc
I do. Going to use my WD hard drive but need everything else. I know it's a tight fit but money is not there for much more.Currently using a core duo 2.4 ghz Dell xps 210 with REX and things aren't too bad until I use PMDG's 737 or Captain Sim. I'd like something I could upgrade the CPU when $$$ is better. Thanks. -
FS9/FSX New Build on Budget

What do you figure these rigs will cost each? -

Did you guys die laughing at my budget? -

My planned budget is as little as possible. Seriously. I have hard drives that will work and don't need an OS. I'd like to stay between 400-500 max, with the ability to upgrade the CPU later if possible. A local quoted me 400 for this:corsair 4gb 1333mhz ddr3 memoryapex case480 watt power supplyphenom II dual core processor 3.2Ghzwestern digital hard drive 250gb 7200rpm 16MB cachecd/dvd burner MSI 785GM-P45 AMD 785G Socket AM3 -
First post here in years!I started simming in '88 with Sublogic and monochrome! Converted to mac in 04 and am now using FSX, Xplane 9 on a Dell xps 210 with a 4550 video card. I'd like a new build, and, money is very tight. My presumption is that guven the age of fsx I can get something that ran it great 2 years ago, and that should be fine. Of course, I would prefer things to be upgradable for when I gave mSorry - post was ended prematurely... for when I have more $$$.Are there sources for used gaming systems? Should I build it - if so, how do I separate wgeat from chaff in terms of ruling in/out components?From what I read sp2 can use multi core and higher cpu cycles is more critical, than say, marginal improvements in video cards.I fly for a living, this is for my son and I on the weekends.
