New PC ???

[CBreuer]

Anyone recently built or bought a PC with Flightsim in mind?

I'm interested in what you consider to be a good spec/recommendation with performance, future proofing and cost in mind. FSX of course....

Thanks in advance

Jack,

I bought a new PC recently, but mainly FS9 still in mind :D
Specs:
ASUS P5KPL-E, E8400 Dual Core, 2 Gig RAM, GF8800GT 512 MB and Samsung 750 GB HDD with 32 MB Cache, but I would recommend their 1TB HDD if you would set up a new System from Scratch.
But now ATI is back in the market so you should put an eye on their latest graphics cards.:)

This System surely could run FSX, but I am not willing to switch right now. I am now really happy with my good 'high' frame rates, even in the densest scenery and all AI-traffic set to 100 %. In this configuration I flew into the 9Dragons Kai Tak scenery with the PMDG B747-400F and it was the greatest fun I EVER had:D Mainly because of the approach itself, but that is a different story :P
