Thread: Computer upgrade

  1. Default Computer upgrade

    How good is this for fsx. I never used big add-ons due to my 2.10 ghz computer but if I get this how well would it run things like orbx, REX, Carenado, etc.

    FX4100 will run fsx fine in the medium range with those items, its your CPU speed that what really matters and it seems fsx likes Intel cpu better. Money no constraint to performance go with sandy or ivy bridge Intel CPU processor. Still, medium setting FSX looks better than maximum setting in FS2004. AMD is fine in the middle range of performance but at the high end intel is best option. AMD processors are not the best for FSX but they are not so bad as some say. Would get the best CPU before upgrading a graphics card as FSX is CPU greedy machine and it likes speed and Overclocking is sometimes the only way to up the frame rates make flying acceptable.
