    Posted: 20 Jul 2008 at 1:12pm

Hi,

My machine will be use exclusively for FSX. As I can't spent right now (5000-8000$) for a dream machine, I would like to figure out a basic configuration (minimal) capable running FSX with the accelaration pack; I intend to use yoke, pedals and throttle control.

 

In a second step, I intend to upgrade this basic configuration for better performance and using new add-on as Flight Simulator Ultimate Water FX, Night environment, World environment and airports.

 

I’m confuse as many options are available and I don’t know where to begin.

 

Thanks for yours advices

 

Michel

I suggest that you call DS and speak to Kelly directly. He has an impressive FS rig and can run down some setup options within your price range...

Also check out the 'Flight Simulator' topic in the 'Gaming' section here for more ideas and postings.

Wow Harley,

I want to just say one thing... holy *&$%!

You just need to take it easy on that addiction of yours :)

Too much FS-X causes you to start spouting Acronyms in your sleep.
