    This is what I have:
    Intel board P7N SLI-FI
    Intel Core 2 Duo E8000
    DDR2-800 2 GB
    GeForce 9600GT 1 GB DDR2
    Windows XP

    With FS9 maxed out on everything flying at KSEA with real weather I'm getting 63-67 fps in the day and 58-63 at night. I'm getting 73-79 FPS over the mountains.

    FSX maxed out except bloom, 28-32 avg fps same as above day/night at KSEA. When I drop sceneries down to 80%, getting 32-40 fps. I was about to install KMCO from cloud9 when i realized I installed FSX on hte wrong drive, so I uninstalled and reinstalling now. To much in a hurry .

    I'm still tweaking

    SO overall I'm pretty happy, I plan on running FS9 mainly and will try to install the Tileproxy. I'll let you know how that goes if I do it

  3. Thanks Matt Olieman thanked for this post

    Sounds great!

    Have you tried it out with payware scenery or aircraft yet?

    At those frame rates you shouldn't have anything to worry about.

    You know this is good news that it's running great. I know that I had hoped and half way planned on switching to FSX on this great new PC that I have but I have so much enjoyment and very little problems with FS9 that I dont that if it'd be worth it with buying a new FSUIPC and new products and all the little issues that we have with FSX. However, with the FTX product line, when it gets to the USA I will be sorely tempted.

    I am glad to hear your new machine is top notch. BTW DAL, you didnt sustain any damage this past week/weekend did ye?
