It should be, yes. A CPU over 3.0 Ghz, with a decent video card of at least 256mb and RAM of 1.5 gig should be sufficient. I would recommend another 512mb - 1024mb if at all possible.

I'm not going to buy a new computer now. I'll buy one when FSX has already been released. This is what I'm expecting to buy and of course will need to save up to:
1. Hard Disk around 200 GB
2. CPU of dual-core
3. graphics card of 512 mb, or more if it exisits
4. 4 gigs of ram
5. not sure if an asus p4p800-x will do it |

There is a nVidia GeForce 7950 that is TWO GPU's in one that uses 1 gig of memory. Or, you can get a SLI-ready PC that can have two or four GPU's. |

Thats what I just purchased from Dell but with a 256mb video card. The only thing that suck is that I dont get full use of the 4gb of ram because its a 32bit OS. But I'll take 80fps with all the sliders maxed any day(with certain planes of course) ! |
