I got this laptop for college but I'm thinking about running fsx on it if my specs will allow it. Whats your opinion?

It should run FSX pretty well, I would just make sure you get a cooling pad because latitudes aren't exactly meant for gaming so it'll probably get pretty hot.

Yeah! It should work great. As long as you do what John said and cool it, you'll be fine! I used an ASUS with FSX for years. It ran great! biggrin

I have the exact same laptop and it runs well but they are RIGHT I need a cooling pad, after a 12hrs flight it started to get REALLY slow and it froze.
