does it work good with Sapphire VAPOR-X HD 5770 and Intel l5 2,66 ghz?

[Kollyzz]

yes

[natakae]

What are the graphics settings??? i'm going to take a wild guess and say ultra high. Am i right?? i am purchasing a Q9550 myself. i dont have a 960GTX but i have a 8600gs. (Nvidia)

[Kollyzz]

actually i dont remember.. probably almost everything on very high. Q9550 is a good cpu but sometimes it's not enough to run fsx with good fps in busy airports. I suppose nvidia 8600 is enough to run fsx.

Nice video but I would suggest downloading a different sound file for the 747, as the one it comes with is garbage...other then that you have a nice system, if you want better performance switch to Windows 7 Ultimate and you'll get a slight increase in frame rates

At landing you open air brake to early. In real aircraft it could be very dangerous.

Nice fly :)

[misterpspdude]

I can't get the 747 to take off quick enough, any tips

[LOLcopterxD]

Get REX , GEX , UTX , FEX

[FSXgta]

How will it run if i have a setup like this:

Graphics card: Radeon HD 6850 1GB GDDR5

Processor: AMD Athlon II X4 640 3 GHz (Quad core)

RAM: Kingston ValueR. DDR3 1333MHz 8GB

Motherboard: MSI 870A-G54, Socket-AM3

hey man i have this do u think it will run smoothly even if i make my settings high and will i have a nice graphics like yours??

HP Pavilion Elite HPE-398d Desktop PC is this good enough for FSX? Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium 64-bit Intel® Core™ i7 processor 860 2.80 GHz 8 GB DDR3 1 TB SATA 3G Hard Disk Drive (7200 rpm) BlueRay Disc Combo Player NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 260 Special Edition; up to 5374 MB total available graphics memory, with 1.8 GB dedicated..

[zhihaojustin98]

still not as good as jon5700 ;)

I actually just recently got a new PC (windows 7 64-bit). It;'s got an i7 870 3.6Ghz, 8GB of ram, a 5750 graphics card oc to 750Ghz core and 1300Ghz memory (1GB dedicated). i can run this max graphics 8xAA - edge detect and 8x antostopic filtering 50 fps flat. no drops in fps and its locked at 50. With fraps doing a video its like 25 fps or so.

[camerongoll]

@natakae im using a 9400gt with 1gb dedicated to graphics and i runs great you should consider that.

@Lazengogh Flying around you said is pointless....youre right, Im loosing interest cuz of just going up....coming down...but I dont have time to mess around, Im trying to learn guitar, a feat in itself for me! lol..thanks for your comment.

[Lazengogh]

@ellonysman At first i thought as you. A little more than a year ago i still was like "omg those simmers are so lame and idiots" now i am a huge FSX fan. What do i do. I fly. but i fly in a realistic manner. I personally do it with GA planes and VFR, but that doesnt matter. When you do everything seriously, there is lots of things to do and to master, and it never gets boring. I have 550 hours on my logbook. Fooling around is boring and pointless.
