I was told by my local hobby store that I needed 1gig memory for G3 to work well. This is not true. Here's what I have. This works great!

Pentium P4
512 mb memory
RADEON 9500 PRO / 9700
Windows XP Professional Service Pack
Motherboard: Intel D845PESV

I hear a lot of bitching about G3, but I find it to be excellent. No load issues, realistic plane physics. This is the way to improve flying skills. I helps get rid of the fear factor when trying complex maneuvers close to the ground.

Very true, I just went and pick up another pack of 512mb (2x 256mb) dual channel memory.

My setup is giving me 12-27 FPS with every option turned on and aa set to 16 and I am in 1280 x 1024 32 bit.

Intel P4-3.06 GHZ
Asus P4P800e-delux
Corsair TwinX XL - 1GB dual channel 2.2.2.5. memory
ATI 9800 Pro 128 MB
Maxtor 80GB 7200Rpm ata-133
Soundblaster Live 128

I am still not 100% satisfied. The sound is really cheesy. This game is slow with 512 mb.
