Got my 748 back :D


Recommended Posts

A year ago I purchased the iFly 747-400 (+747-8) for FSX, and I showed my results here:

However, I couldn't make it work in my old laptop and I had to return it. Now, with my current laptop, I finally bought it again. This is what I've got now:

iFly Boeing 747-8 with the stock Lufthansa colors, flying between KJFK and EDDF. Now my laptop can stand this load.

 

Edit: pictures seem so small; I had to reduce them so that the forum system can accept them.

Thank you all for your kind words. I'm glad you all liked the pictures.

 

Looks very good Luis, esp. with a laptop! :cool::cool::cool: I post my pictures 1280 x 800.:)

Thanks, Peer. I think I'll follow your tip from now on, instead of resizing to 50%.

 

They should have made you a rebate :):)

Happy you can fly the plane you like!

By Murphy's Law, there was one some days after I repurchased the 744/748 hahaha

 

What new laptop did you get, please?

My previous rig was an Asus VivoBook X556UQ (i5-7200U limited at 2.5 GHz for FS9 and FSX, 6 GB RAM, Nvidia GT940MX GPU, a PNY 240 GB SATA III SSD and a 1 TB HDD). Now I have an ASUS TUF FX504GD (i5-8300H limited at 3.7 GHz for FSX, 8 GB RAM, Nvidia GTX1050 GPU, a 256 GB M.2 SSD and the same SATA III SSD from my previous rig). I limit the amount of Turbo Boost so that the CPU never throttles. Laptop cooling systems are almost never designed to handle continuously the maximum available boost.
