What do you think of this laptop for Xplane 11? Ad Adorablejames
I wanted to ask which laptop is suitable for Xplane 11? Ad Adorablejames
Does it also meet the recommended requirements?
Can You Run It
Google it and do the test.
Shouldn't be a problem if you don't want to play the game with any 4k sceneries.
System requirements should not be relied on.
The page (Systemrequirementslab) is total rubbish (I don't know if another page will come out on Google, I use DuckDuckGo).
There's the following:
CPU: Intel Core i3, i5, or i7 CPU with 2 or more cores, or AMD equivalent
RAM: 8 GB
VIDEO CARD: DirectX 11-capable video card from NVIDIA, AMD w / 512 MB VRAM
FREE DISK SPACE: 20 GB
DEDICATED VIDEO RAM: 512 MB
To go into this junk of such sites (and some system requirements):
The CPU cores do not say anything exactly about the performance. The same thing says on the X-Plane page, but with the addition that it is best to test the demo.
When it comes to RAM, it depends, although 8GB should be enough for the basic game.
With the graphics card it becomes noticeable that there are cheaply copied and outdated system requirements. Graphics memory doesn't say much about actual graphics performance. You can have a GT210 with one gigabyte of graphics memory, you could probably also have an RTX3090 with 512 megabytes of graphics memory. The RTX3090 will still handle calculations better if they are not VRam-intensive. The same thing is stated in X-Plane (only with one gigabyte of VRam), but below, which graphics cards / chips you need at least.
I think 20GB SSD storage should be enough for the X-Plane, but I don't remember that.
So the best thing is: Don't rely on system requirements and certainly not on external pages with system requirements and rather watch benchmarks on YouTube, for example.
