Thinking about upgrading to FSX but my poor PC has a hard time running FS9. I am ready to hit the order button on this PC. For those of you who run FSX will this system run it ok?
Intel® 4th Generation Core™ i5, 3.5GHz (with Turbo Boost up to 3.9GHz), System Memory (RAM) 8GB, IDIA GeForce GT 730 2GB (dedicate) Thanks for the advise!

I personally dont see anything wrong with it, but i havent bought any hardware since 07 (which shows how old my current system is getting)

I agree. That's a nice system and you should be able to run FSX. I'm sticking with FS2004 but I'd eventually like to get to at least an i3.

It has been ordered with a new gaming monitor! Thanks for the advise. I will be sticking with FS9 for a bit longer. I should get a lot better graphics now :-). Can't wait for it to come in!
