Processor speed vs processor type.


Recommended Posts

My system has an Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650 running at 3.6Ghz. Now I know newer processors have an edge over it but would say a Quad Core i5 or i7 running at 3.6Ghz really make much difference as a comparison in like for like speed.

WIth FSX its al about speed the faster teh beter. But FSX like many programmes is affected by hardware,software and drivers which can all cause it to fall over. A quad core at 4.5 Gig or faster and a GTX 670 or better is the way to go.

You would gain about 50% to 75% fps.
