Flight Sim X ran fine on my old rig, And that was 1.5Gb ram, 2.8Ghz Processor and a 64mb GFX :P

It runs even better on my new one :P

Yeah but what did it look like? Having played all the versions since '98, when people say it looks good, it usually looks quite poor tbf. Just FSX for you :')

Some of the liverys looked great to be honest, Some of the airports were a bit..well... but the Taxi ways and runways were fine, Clouds and sky rendered no problems
