      Update = new motherboard, new processor, new graphics card...maybe up to 2GBs of RAM and I am good to go!

              Well, that's a variable question.

              Average I would say 15-25FPS, locked at 25FPS.


              But in dense scenery, PMDG 744, VC, about 8FPS, which isn't too bad, but I have pretty much everything maxed out.

                My roommate is building a pretty high-powered computer from scratch, almost solely for gaming purposes (much to the dismay of his girlfriend)...it'll be done in about another 8 months, which makes it ripe for the release of FSX. Since I got him hooked on FlightSim, needless to say, I have dibs on secondary computer usage...whenever .

                      Dang, that's a long time...is he soldering all the little circuit bits on the motherboard himself?

                        Nope...he's running short of cash...he buys parts like 2 months apart so that his bank balance doesn't drop down to $0.00

                          Oh, thats smart then I guess, lucky bastard.

                          My friend who owns a cyber lounge could build me a top of the line gaming computer from scratch for a few hundred hours, he made all the ones in the cyberlounge, and they have the best graphics/preformance I've ever seen! I'll see what he can do for me.
