Thanks for the replies Dominic! Yes, telling me my computer is a piece of crap, while true to an extent, is not helpful. I already knew that. I shuffled things around on my drives I have windows 10 and flight sim on my SSD. The ISP got my internet up to 20 Mbs max. I customized the graphics settings in-game; some are off, some are medium, and some are high. It works great!! I read so many negative things about low frame rates. It's not like I really need lense flare on the camera I'm not running 4k. for me that's overkill. I don't watch movies in 4k or blu ray. people are a little spoiled... to point the negativity back on them a little. It's worth the money, even with my system. I'm going to build some rudder pedals, that's about it. Over-all a good experience. I made the Lift Bridge and a bunch of buildings for scenery for Duluth, Minnesota for x-plane 10. I took off from Duluth in fs2020, flew over the hill, held my breath...........No lift bridge:mad: Hopefully there's freeware or I could add my 3d models into custom scenery like fsx or xplane.

Hi. I assembled my computer a few years ago. I've played a lot of flight sims but I'm not very knowledgeable on installation of the programs on hdd and ssd. I just bought flight sim 2020 and put it on 1 TB hdd where windows 10 is. After the initial 2 or 3 Gigs I was going to put the rest on my 500G SATA ssd but I stopped and realized I don't really know what the h#ll I'm doing. The only thing I have on my ssd is DCS World. X plane 11 works good on hdd. But with flight sim 2020 I have a lot of questions I can't quite find the answers to regarding drives and install. I have i7 6700k, 16G RAM, 6G Gtx 1060. The only thing I might add is more RAM. Could someone please answer some questions: Does flight sim 2020 have to be on the same drive as windows 10? Should I move my Windows to the ssd? My internet is 2mbs a lot of the time, and I hear that you can manually cache locations, is that ok on hdd? Or should that be ssd? Given my computer and gpu, should I bother to buy bigger dedicated ssd (I also have DCS World stuff)? My motherboard is Asus z170a is it worth it to go to M.2 ssd? I don't want to blow a bunch of money on this computer if it really won't improve the flight sim 2020 experience that much. I'm kind of lost in all this...Please help...
