Microsoft Flight Simulator X has been announced but you just might have to upgrade your PC to fly this simulation. Microsoft has announced the impending release of Flight Simulator X and this should really excite Flight Sim fans, but what will it take for you to run it properly? You might have to do a few computer upgrades just to get the simulator torun right on your computer.
First, Microsoft has optimized this latest version of Flight Simulator to run on Windows Vista. It will also require quite a bit of horsepower to run the title. Many might have to not only upgrade to Vista to see all that Flight Simulator has to offer, but you might also have to upgrade your processor, maybe the motherboard, add more RAM and replace your video card.
Oh, the game might run just fine on the rig you are currently running but you will likely not get all that the game has to offer. And even though the player has the option to reduce the settings to match their machine, they will likely then be seeing something much like an earlier version of the simulator rather than this amazing new offering.
Those users who have the right equipment will see cars and trucks on the roads and even wild animals in some areas like caribou herds in the northern Canadian areas, along with a seamless world that will look more real than you have even seen before.
