So, I was thinking about a possible Computer Upgrade, and was wondering if the current Intel 'onboard' Graphics Card with 128 Mb would be enough to handle FS9?
The CPU is an Intel Core 7 with 1.8 Gb. 16 Gb of RAM.

Thanks!

Mate, when FS9 came out, a graphics card with 128 Mb of it's own was considered brilliant. That doesn't even take into consideration the graphics capabilities of the current CPU's. You're more than good!
