1biggles1 Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Yes the spec's are good you will have no need to worry about frame rates you can max all the sliders out a also have a look at the Tweaks for FS9 on modern PC's on my website to open and sparkle things up.

alanmerry Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 Not sure about the gforce gt710. I run FS9 in Windows7 with an Nvidia GeForce GTX960 and that's fine even around dense scenery around airports. You should be able find comparisons of the two somewhere on the web. But I would suggest a SSD rather than the hard drive, unless you need 1TB of storage for something else. The SSD is faster. My masses of scenery and hundreds of aircraft half fill a 240GB SSD with Windows7 on a different SSD. You might like to consider a SSD for FS9 and a HDD for everything else depending on how much storage you need. I hope this helps, rather than adding to the confusion!

Skywatcher12 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 People are yessing to poor systems suggesting FS9 will run great. They either haven't run FS9 since 2006 or they use very simple add-ons. If you want to run default FS9 you need one system. If you want to run the most system intensive add-ons, you need a completely different system. What add-ons do you intend to run? I've set up FS9 now on a multitude of different PC's and have a very good idea what each would give you but depends what add-ons you intend to run. The add-ons totally determine what specs you will need. Mark Daniels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lillyluna23 Posted January 16, 2021 Author Share Posted January 16, 2021 Thank you so much for your advice,I really appreciate it. The add-ons I primarily use are: Various scenery add-on's World of ai Active sky And I think that's pretty much it. Regards Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skywatcher12 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 (edited) Jon, The system you have there would be fine for the most part. You haven't mentioned particular scenery or what types of aircraft. If you were to run large payware airports and complex payware jets, I would suggest going up a little with the graphics card. The other system components will hold a minimum 30fps using any add-on FS9 has to offer but on the more system intensive add-ons the card needs to be a little more.
