Is XPlane 11 running on the Asus Vivobook S14 (S406UA BM013T)?
I'm thinking for XPlane 11 to buy a notebook that costs no more than 700 euro.
Since I came across the Asus Vivobook S14 (because someone owns my sister) and wanted to ask if you can play XPlane 11?
Model Name: S406UA-BM013T
(90NB0FX2-M01250)
Data sheet:
Since no dedicated graphics card is built certainly not. The notebook has only the integrated graphics of the processor and this is absolutely unsuitable for gambling.
Likewise, the game requires 16 GB of RAM and an even stronger CPU.
For such demanding games you should definitely buy a PC, which is also much cheaper, lasts longer because of lower temperatures and is fully upgradeable. For 700 euro you can build something really neat.
No without graphics card definitely not. For the other specs, I'm not sure because I only know the game casually. A notebook is for gambling whether simulator or shooter anyway futile and overpriced. Better to get a mid-range desktop PC for the same amount of money
Thanks for your answers, only 8GB of RAM are required (16-24 GB is recommended)
How about this?

Well, those are the minimum requirements. Minimum requirements means that the game starts at all. But that will be something with a maximum of 30 fps and not even in Full HD. The recommended system requirements with 16 GB of RAM and so on are usually related to fluent gaming in Full HD @ 60fps, which in my opinion is the bare minimum when it comes to fun.
In addition, a laptop, especially with the Ryzen processor with whole 35W TDP, produces extremely much waste heat, so that due to the high temperatures, the CPU will surely downclock and it comes to lags.
The notebook is definitely much better, but not optimal. The game will run, but it is likely to hang more often and you have to shut down graphics to the minimum.
In a game like this, you can't get around a PC. Why should it be a notebook?
Edit: Have you ever looked for real game results. With the notebook you will probably be able to play with 60fps on low settings. At high settings it will definitely not run smoothly any more. As I said, a PC would be much better suited. Just as the battery life in such a notebook anyway goes to zero, I see no advantage. As a take-away device, it will certainly not be very well suited.
Thanks for the answer,
have looked now and configured a PC,
Are these data correct for XPlane 11?

Phew, what should it cost? So the CPU is ancient and the graphics card is actually an office card. I do not quite understand where you can configure something old today, but it's probably one of the rip-offs like Mifcom or Agando. Since even the notebook with the RX560X is better.
What do you want to spend a maximum for the PC?
For 800 euro you get at hardware advice the 800 euro PC, which packs every current game in high settings in Full HD, XPlane anyway.

If you trust yourself to build it yourself, it would cost you only 650 euro.
I configured that on One Gaming,
I configured him so that he does not cost more than 550-600 euro.
That's really not recommended. So make a big turn around the page. Info: I have almost used the same PC with the processor for 80 euro needed. They are really worth nothing.
I would buy the here in your place: https://hardwarerat.de/...arerat-600
If you are still looking for a monitor that is cheap, I can highly recommend the Samsung S24F356.
But it only has 8GB of RAM, 16-24GB is recommended
do you think the game runs smoothly?
I think it runs smoothly on the PC, but should run because of the little RAM no program in the background. Could you buy for 16GB 16GB RAM for 8GB and the 8GB are installed again for about 40-50 euro sale.
It would be best if you build yourself, then you will save 100 euro again and you can install 16 GB directly.
@RedgePro
I have now found another PC, vote the data?
Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 2400G, 4x 3600 MHz
RAM: 16 GB DDR4 RAM 2666 MHz
Graphics card: AMD Radeon Vega 8, 2 GB
This PC does not even have a dedicated graphics card, so that will definitely not matter… Also, the RAM for Ryzen is a bit slow clocked.
What speaks against the hardware advice? He is much better.
And if I use a GTX 1030 GDDR5 instead of the Vega 8 and the RAM clocks at 3000 MHz (the request for the clock of the RAM.
The GT 1030 is an office card and absolutely unsuitable for gaming.
As I said, I recommend you the hardware advice PC, you will not find a better PC for the price on the Internet. Unless you build yourself one.
Is it possible to install a 2nd 8GB RAM bank on the hardware PC, or does it need to install a single 16 GB RAM bank?
And is the PC factory-ready from Wi-Fi?
There are already 2x4 GB installed, in principle you can install 2x4 GB again, 4 slots are available. To use Dual Channel, I would simply swap the built-in for a 2x8 GB dual kit.
These are my new plans!
-Aus Dual GTX 1060 6 GB OC
-Intel ASRock H310CM-HDV
Intel Core i5 9400f (up to 4.1 Ghz)
-16 GB Crucial RAM 2666 MHz
-Toshiba 1 TB HDD
-Patriot Burst 120 GB
-Hamburg Pro RGB power supply 550W
(up to 600W)
-Aeroocool Rift
Xplane 11 is based on OpenGL, which is why graphics cards and CPUS based on OpenGL run significantly better than those based on volcano.
I would definitely change that.
Take a Ryzen 5 2600 on a B450 Pro4 AMD. Add 16GB G.Skill Aegis 3000MHz Dual Kit. Much cheaper and makes more sense.
The power supply is quite a garbage, rather take a 500W Bequiet Pure Power 11.
As I said, the i5 9400f is not based on OpenGL, the Ryzen 5 2600.
In addition, my chosen motherboard, anyway only supports a RAM speed of 2666 MHz.
Okay, I do not know that now, I think.
Then I would still take a better equipped B360 board with the latest BIOS. The RAM can often even run at 3000 MHz with OC.
The power supply you should swap in any case.
