Recommended PC for BMS
-
My rig does the job for me. Normally sits at 60FPS with VSync on all conditions. See sig for spec

Been curious in a good combat oriented Flight Sim. I looked at the original F4.0 many years ago. After finding out about BMS, Im highly curious in trying it out again. My Specs are as follows:
AMD A8 Quad-Core Processor 3.2ghz O/C’d to 3.5ghz
AMD Radeon 7470M GPU with 1GB DDR3 VRAM
8GB DDR3 1600 RAM
1TB HDD
21" Screen
I do have a Stick, Throttle and Pedals I use for FSX as well.Would this be good to run F4:BMS at decent settings without an impact and smooth FPS ?
I did look over at the specifications… But not too sure where my Sim Rig would fit into the situation. I definitely know its on the lower side of the spectrum.
But any additional advice would be nice.Thanks All

-JoeI would upgrade the video card. I think your CPU is ok, but an AMD 7470 isn’t much better than a stock Intel HD chip. I would go with an R9 series or an Nvidia 970. One point about the AMD cards, they use much less power than the comparable Nvidia cards, and you can get by with a smaller PSU. The majority of people say that Nvidia is better performance, but in my opinion the AMD cards have better image quality. Tomato, tomato I guess.

Yes He needs a real video card, ATI HD 380 or GTX 960 is the entry point for reasonably good performance.

Yea, this PC is an Off the shelf stock Asus from Best Buy. Nothing special. Been dabbling with the idea of upgrading my GPU. My FSX is really starting to suffer as well with all the addons installed. Excellent. Guess im at my wall until i upgrade.
Thanks again

-JoeMaybe just try it and see joe? I dont have a great pc by todays standards, but it’s served me very well, and can play bms with some adjustments.

Well… I cant really say my other sim is suffering… More like having an issue with the heavier models/systems of highly complex airliners. Can handle fighters to single engine GA all day. Ill tweak with the settings some more still. I know my friend is upgrading his GPU and is gonna toss me his old gtx 760 card. I know that will improve my pc highly.

That GTX 760 will be perfect to get you in reasonable shape.

Post by Snowsky “Don’t ask me why, but on the top slot, they managed to get the metal so far out that you can barely plug in the DVI, and the HDMI is impossible.”
Shame that name pubicly. Never mind, will probably buy a case from a US online seller. But your post points out why all cases aren’t equal. Thanks for that.
