  1. Then I doubt my monitors are G-sync. They were only about $150 each, three years ago. Maximum resolution is 1920x1080, refresh rate is 60 Hz.
  2. Yes, I know I'm asking the laptop to do a lot, but they've come a long ways since my first Toshiba laptop back in the 90's! X-Plane 11 actually works pretty well in my setup, although I DO have to watch the heat. I've underclocked the CPU and lowered some of the settings to keep the heat down. When everything is maxed out, the CPU runs at about 100° C, which is way too hot! The problem with an ultra-wide screen is I don't get the immersive effect of having screens on both sides. I've already got three 32" monitors, but I have no idea if they are G-sync. How do you tell? Thanks for the response!
  3. Yeah, I may just need to be patient and wait until more people have tried it, and MSFS settles down a little. Multi monitors work great in X-Plane.
  4. So I have a Dell G7 gaming laptop, that I bought three years ago. It was the fastest that was available from Dell at the time (without going with their Alienware). Processor: i7 with 32 GB RAM, 2.2 GHz, turbo up to 4.1 GHz Graphics: GTX 1060 with 6 GB memory At a small airport (3G4), I can get 39 fps using just one screen. At KOSH with Airventure scenery loaded, I can get 26 fps With three screens, the fps drops to about 9, which makes the game unplayable. I'm thinking of upgrading, but I need to stick with a laptop because I travel a bit, and use flight simulators in aviation classes. I used to lug around a desktop back in the old days, and I don't want to do that again! Where can I find recommended hardware specs, that will allow for decent fps (over 20) with three screens and medium to high graphics? Or does anyone have suggestions? I can get a Dell Alienware that has an RTX 1080 Ti graphics card, with up to 16 GB memory, but I don't know if that's good enough. I know fps depends on many things, such as CPU speed CPU memory, GPU speed, and GPU memory speed. Just trying to get an idea of what I'm going to need!
