to give you an idea of how well it would run. I use an asus n55sf 15" with a i7 2760QM with gt555m at 1600x900 with 16x antiso and 16x AA, main drive SSD and a HDD instead of a CD drive. and its stunning. I run pmdg 737ngx, genx photo scenary and activesky with no problems at all I tend to use only complex autogen with low traffic though. I did the fsxmark 11 benchmark with it recently.

Mine wouldn't work unless i had the screen maximised whilst the flight loaded. If i had it windowed or switched app whilst loading, the AA often wouldnt work. Im using the nvidia control panel not inspector. I have AA ticked in fsx and use 'enchance application' setting in nividia.

danielbb replied to JGreen5278's topic in System Hardware: PC | MOBO | RAM | CPU | HDD | SSD | PSU etcI always look at the single thread benchmarks to get an idea how well each processor will handle fsx. http://www.cpubenchmark.net/singleThread.html As you can see the 955 and 965 are way down the list. The 3570k, packs almost double the punch at stock.

That is the boot partition and is supposed to be hidden and the file structure confirms that, although its larger than normal its still less than 1gb, and it isnt worth shrinking. If you would like to access for any reason it do the following Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Administrative Tools select computer management select disk management Right click the hidden drive and choose "change the drive letter" assign any letter you wish. The drive will the be accessible but you may need to unhide hidden files and operating files to be able to view the files. Just google any filenames that concern you and you will soon find out whats what. You hide the partition again by removing the drive letter. A typical boot drive has the following bootsect.bat bootmgr system volume information (directory) boot (directory) Bootwiz is an acronis file, you have nothing to worry about. All seems fine.
