Devgru Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 (edited) Hi guys After long consideration I just ordered the laptop Asus ROG Strix SCAR II GL504GS-EST056T with i78750H with 2.2 ghz base and 4.1 ghz on turboclock, GTX1070 8GB GPU, 16GB DDR4 ram, 256 SSD and 1TB Firecuda harddrive with 144hz 1920 x 1080 screen. How do you think this will do for FSX:SE? I have bought Orbx Global, Vectors and fly alot of PMDG aircraft and Aerosoft products in aircrafts and sceneries..will this laptop do the job? I am excited to this upgrade from my last Lenovo Y520 with i5 2.3 ghz to 2.8 ghz turboclock with 6GB GTX1050 GPU. I cannot buy desktop for the girlfriend and the aesthestic measures at home,, regards Edited November 16, 2018 by Devgru Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmhariano Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Since it's a laptop, I'll try first disabling Turbo Boost. Yes, it sounds counterintuitive, but (as NickN's Bible says) set up your computer and sim, and after having it stable and smooth, overclock it (or enable back Turbo Boost). You'll save some head banging... I like your CPU; it should do fine, or at least a lot better than my laptop (i5-7200U, 6 GB RAM, GeForce 940MX).

widgy Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 It may not be of any help to know the late, Jon Patch -- scenery creator extraordinaire -- ran FSX-SE and P3D with Orbx on the same Lenovo laptop he created his last scenery for Orbx. That be: Ganges Harbour on Salt Spring Island, BC. It's posted FREE at FTX's site. We had the pleasure of his company while shooting all the photographs to create his models. RIP. ACER AN517-54-700X laptop and installed MSFS under WIN 11 HDMI to 48" TV Works real good lasts a long time. (former) Mooney M20E owner and driver.

lmhariano Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 It's been almost a year with the lapto. How has it been performing with FSX? Best regards, Luis Hernández Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
