LTCSZ Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I am considering a new(?) computer for a standby system with a virgin copy of FS2004 installed...Would this system run FS2004 at a semi-reasonable rate? Not looking for all bells and whistles of FS2004 or max graphics...Mainly a platform to experiment with...Thanks for any opinions/advice... Refurbished: DELL Optiplex 755 Small PC - Core 2 Duo 1.8Ghz - 4GB RAM - 500GB Hard Drive - DVD - Windows 7 Home Premium 64Bit - OEM Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StringBean Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 While I think you would be OK I also think that there are tons of refurbs and off-leases out there that would have a faster CPU for the same money. Unless that one is free. :D Take a look here- http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/campaigns/deals.asp?campaignid=2686 peace, the Bean WWOD---What Would Opa Do?

drake4896 Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 I just up graded to a new PC and I found the machine on Craigs List. I saw the guy had several PCs listed for sale. It turned that the guy was running his small PC shop out of this home. When I called and asked about the PC, that one had already sold. But the guy built me an even better one for about the same money. For $425 Windows 7 8 gig ram NVIDIA GTX 760 graphics card 1 TB hard drive 111 GB Solid State Hard Drive 750 watt power supply It runs FS2004 full out on every thing. Check Craigs list ... for the best deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmhariano Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 What CPU did you get? Best regards, Luis Hernández Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drake4896 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 What CPU did you get? Intel Core i5-2400 CPU @ 3.10GH Quad core To get an Intel Core i7 would have cost another $250. It wasn't need to run FS2004 and I don't need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
