Howdy Everybody! Happy New year!
This is silly, but I am torn between upgrading my copy of FS9, or changing to P3D (Prepar3d). I do have FSX:SE (steam edition), but one large draw back is the requirement to log in to STEAM before I can play FSX. Thus FSX (at least right now) cannot be played off-line.
Computer hardware wise, I should not have a problem. I am running an i7 930, which I will overclock to 3.6 GHZ, 6 GB of RAM, a GTX 970, a 500 GB Samsung 840 EVO SSD, and two Seagate 500 GB HDDs. FS9 runs rings around P3D frame rate wise, but that is more indicative of the age of FS9 than anything else.
What I am grappling with in the fact that I have amassed a collection of fantastic FS9 aircraft that I know will not work in P3D; and the cost of P3D itself. With the vast majority of aircraft and add-ons for P3D being payware in nature, it is not an inexpensive platform.
What are your thoughts? I appreciate your time to reply.
