I am picking up a new system the Dell Dimension E 520 with an upgraded graphics card and upgraded memory and I am wondering if I will be able to properly play Flight sim X- as it is now my system is really pretty good but falls short of being able to play the game properly, would anyone know if this new system will be adequate?? I am not much of a comp. whiz but I went over the "requirements" with the technician and he assures me that I have more than enough power to run this....also do you have any recommendations of the resolution I should set to? I have read reviews but they complain that their system doesn't cut the mustard to run the game adequately and complain of it looking like a slide show.
I am wondering if anyone has the game and is running it and happy with it?
Thanks to all fellow flight sim pilots and any help you may provide me with.

We have the larger monitor also but I didn't figure that would mean didley to you...if you look on the right side of the page that is as close to the specs as I have right now.
Thanks again and I hope that helps you figure it out. 😀

😕 If you can't run fsx on that, then you better give it to me 😛

An integrated graphics card isn't going to please you, read some of the posts here.
Add speakers to that also.
