I want to buy a new laptop that will run my FSX Steam the best it cam be. What do I need to get as far as specifications for a new laptop. Thank you!

intel i7 processor and 16 gig or more ram, a high capacity SSD drive to start. Since graphics are built-in the best package is also a plus

Since the sim is 32 bit tech from 2006, anything will run it. It will still have "issues" that hardware can't cure.

I've maxed out a laptop that was £329.
amd a6 2.5-2.8ghz
8gb ram
512mb vram
1TB HDD
I fly in the c182 RGII with photoreal scenery(1m res and 10M mesh res)with most settings medium-high. Along with dxtry and radeonpro my frames range from 20-40fps; In jets its slightly lower but still stays around 25-35fps.

If you have £1000 or whatever then you could get an alienware or over gaming laptop.Point is if I can run the sim ok you can!

FSX:SE relies heavily on the CPU, so the faster the CPU the better. FSX:SE still can't use more that 4GBof RAM so, get at least 6GB (anything over the 4GB can be used for other things). For Graphics, get something that can at least perform as well as an GeForce GTX 760 TI.

Gonna put my input here-- I bought a HP laptop from walmart, about 400 bucks. The specs are: Intel HD graphics 620- 8gb RAM- Intel core i3-7000u CPU @ 2.40 GHz. I run the game very steady at almost max scenery settings. I get around 45-50 in default aircraft and 35-40 in detailed add-ons. Also with rex 4 installed. Only reason the two mesh sliders aren't maxed is because my aircraft (no matter what it is) jumps on the runway when I have them up to max. In essence I guess I'm saying don't dump a ton of money into a laptop or custom built PC.
