LJ45man Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 (edited) Hello fellow flight simmers. I have recently enhanced my flight simulation hardware to include two 4k monitors and a third touchscreen monitor for the overhead panel. I have decided to upgrade my PC and wondering if anyone is interested in purchasing my previous flight sim PC? Details are as follows: Software: Windows 7 64-bit professional, P3D v4.5.14.34698 (academic liscense), FSX Deluxe Edition (2CDs) and Acceleration Expansion Pack (3rd CD) fully installed and with product keys, and FSUIPC6 Hardware: Intel Skylake (Socket 1151 LGA) i7-6700K mildly overclocked to 4.4GHz (native 4Ghz), ASRock Z170 Extreme4 Mboard, two 4096 Mbyte DDR4 1066 MHz DIMMS, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980Ti mfg: EVGA, 240GB PNY SATA-III solid state drive (with a second SanDisk 240GB SSD cloned spare, kept in cold standby, e.g. installed but no power or data cable connected. Note, it was cloned before the P3D install), Corsair Obsidian Series 750D full tower case with clear side panels, Seasonic 860 Watt modular power supply. I keep processor fan from full RPM as there is a slight vibration on the oversized cooling heat sync. All chassis fans are large form factor (I recall 120mm) so the machine is pretty quiet under operation. I will consider best offers for the machine or if no takers I will part it out on a PC parts forum. If there is a buyer for the machine the FSX, P3D, and FSUIPC liscense will convey and I will purchase new liscenses for my new flight sim machine (I will no longer be using FSX, only P3D and FSUIPC). Asking $300, Shipping costs will be the responsibility of the purchaser (shipping from MD, USA).

napamule2 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 It is not 'transferable' because it is licensed to what the check sums (ie: the individual hardware parts, and the serial numbers, that are produced by THAT PC, and that PC ONLY (and no other)). So essentially FSX is 'tied' to that specific PC due to it's specific parts. Attempting to install into any other PC will void the license. Chuck B Napamule i7 2600K @ 3.4 Ghz (Turbo-Boost to 3.877 Ghz), Asus P8H67 Pro, Super Talent 8 Gb DDR3/1333 Dual Channel, XFX Radeon R7-360B 2Gb DDR5, Corsair 650 W PSU, Dell 23 in (2048x1152), Windows7 Pro 64 bit, MS Sidewinder Precision 2 Joy, Logitech K-360 wireless KB & Mouse, Targus PAUK10U USB Keypad for Throttle (F1 to F4)/Spoiler/Tailhook/Wing Fold/Pitch Trim/Parking Brake/Snap to 2D Panel/View Change. Installed on 250 Gb (D:). FS9 and FSX Acceleration (locked at 30 FPS). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LJ45man Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 I learn something every day. I disposed of the CDs. I switched to P3D. Looks like Steam is the best FSX option today for folks switching hardware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
