FS2004 on a 13" MacBook?
Guest
At the moment I use my parents' PC for FS2004... a Dell PowerEdge SC420 with a 2.66GHz Prescott P4, 512MB DDR2-533 ECC RAM, and an NVIDIA GeForce FX5500 (PCI) w/ 256MB... needless to say, FS2004 at just 19fps (set) with medium graphics, runs not too well. It skips frames (runs ok for a second then skips a frame and continues this), especially when there's advanced scenery such as overcast or scattered clouds.
I might be getting a 13" Apple MacBook pretty soon and would put Apple
s Boot Camp on it (lets you run Windows natively). The specs of the computer would be as follows: 1.83GHz Core Duo, 2GB DDR2-667 RAM, 60GB 5400rpm HD. and (sadly) a 64MB GMA950 integrated graphics card. How would FS2004 perform? Would the fast CPU + RAM be able to compensate for the lack of a good graphics card?

Don't expect high FPS with a 64mb card, set your slides to low and see how it does then start to move some up.

Yeah I'm not looking for anything above 24, as a matter of fact, 19 is fine... I just don't want it to lag and have low quality (look like FS2000).
When you do it, come back find this post and let us help you get the best settings for the sim.
