hi all
Having got rid of my imac,i have gone back to a windows 10 64 bit computer,and i have been after a flight sim for a while now but am unsure if my system would run Flight Gear Sim without any Problems.I have been looking on the web and there seems to be a few folk who are having probs with their systems trying to run Flight Gear Sim. SO my system is
Windows 10 (64 bit)
2 TB Hard Drive
16 GB Ram
Radeon RX 580 SIX CORE (with latest Drivers)
32" AOC Monitor
I think i should be ok but would just like to make sure before i go ahead
I hope this post is in the right place Appollogies if it is not

Thank You for any help i recieve
regards tony (cupcake)

You missed the CPU, but otherwise it will run it just fine(although you might not be unable to max everything out)

FlightGear is also 100% free to download and the in-sim facilities for fetching world scenery and any aircraft from the library have improved massively over the past few years. The store is still there as a service for people with slow or expensive internet connections.
