loki Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 That looks like a decent off the shelf system for FSX. The only part I would question is that it looks like it only uses one stick of RAM, where two matched sticks of RAM would allow you to run in dual channel mode (a bit faster). Assuming you're in Canada based on the listed price, which part of the country are you in? If out west you may want to have a look at MemoryExpress as well. They have some pre-built systems and can also custom build too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogman12 Posted April 13, 2021 Author Share Posted April 13, 2021 Thanks for your reply I believe I can get 2 x 8 instead of 16 for same price I'm in Northern Alberta I'm aware of MemoryExpress I just saw this system at the Dell site on sale Thanks Again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W2DR Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Welcome to the forum(s). That system should be fine for FSX. Just go to two RAM sticks as Loki suggests and you'll be good-to-go. - Doug Intel 10700K @ 5.0 Ghz, Asus Maxumus XII Hero MB, Noctua NH-U12A Cooler, Corsair Vengence Pro 32GB 3200Mhz, Geforce RTX 2060 Super GPU, Cooler Master HAF 932 Tower, Thermaltake 1000W Toughpower PSU, Windows 10 Professional 64-Bit, and other good stuff.
