Have an acquaintance who has a system with dual Xeon 3.2G cpu's

http://www.cpu-world.com/sspec/SL/SL7ZE.html

he's trying to set up FSX on it. So far so good but wondered if it will result in decent operation.

I *think* he pulled them out of an old server and is building a FSX system.

hes better off on a single modern quad

as long as the OS sees all the physical cores it will work but none of the hyperthread ability they may have will do anything

Must be learning - that's pretty much what I told him!
