With no plans of going with FSX anytime soon, I'm wondering if this machine can run FS9 properly, at least better than (struggling) 28fps. Or can this run FSX, let me know. Thanks in advance for any advise you may offer. Specs below:

 

Intel Dual Core E2180 2.00GHz

1.99GB of RAM - (no video card yet)

hard to say without the video card, thats just as important as anything else, even for FS9. you can have great ram and an awesome core, but skimp on the video card and itll still be [Mod - lovely stuff]py.

 

28fps is good IMO, if you dont want the old parts, send them to me!

 

i have an ASUS dual core 3.0 with 4 gb ram. i got around 30 - 40 frames with FS9 maxed out, 20 - 30 around heavy scenery. had 60 - 90 frames with a fresh install if i wouldve added a new video card the frames wouldve sky rocketed, no money for that yet tho, now trying to save up to buy a new hard drive to replace the one that failed on me. maybe this year i can get both
