Hi. Am looking at a new computer to run FS9.
Dell Optiplex GX6 20
4 G Ram
250 G HD
Raedon x600 Pro card
Pentium 4

Will be used to run FS9 only and no other programs except those required to operate.

Your comments welcome.

Cheers Adrian.

It'll run it, but not that well. The x600 is a very, very old card, thus old technology. 4GB RAM is nice, but the P4 kills it. Dual/Quad Cores are the way to go now, its old, slow technology.

I was lead to believe the Optiplex systems were office systems, for businesses and things like that? Definitely not designed for gaming, and that must be an old model too.
