    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Sadly I have to replace my trusty Win 7 i5 computer. It's been a real gem, has lasted years.

I've found one I think will give me some growth into future needs; and it certainly ticks the 'price' box. And hopefully I'll still be able to use my MS FF2 stick.

Scorptec Precision GTX 1650 Gaming PC @ $1,299.00 Aus
Intel Core i5 12400F 6 Core,
Intel H610 Chipset,
GeForce GTX 1650 4GB,
16GB 3200MHz RAM,
2TB M.2 NVMe SSD, SilverStone Precision PS15 RGB Case,
550W PSU,
WiFi,
Win 11 Home

Whadda ya think? Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
 
Good system for FSX/P3D, you can also play many other games with no problem.

Congrats of your new system :)
 
Cool. Thanks for that Toni. Glad to know I'm on the right track.
Haven't bought it yet, but will now budget for it.

Easily the lowest priced/ best equipped system I've found. Computer prices here in Oz are very expensive, compared to US and Europe.
