Recommended specs for the latest Trainz game?

[Red_Rattler]

What's the recommended computer specs for the latest Trainz game please?

And which would be best Windows 7, 8, 8.1? I don't think Win 10 hasn't come out yet.

64 bit OS for T:ANE ... Desktops outperform all laptops ... some laptops get quite hot, and overheat on Trainz ... Not to say that ALL laptops will become genital sterilization units ... as some people have very good results on laptops.

I am lead to believe that Trainz is the most, video card, CPU, demanding game on the market

Are all-in-one computers now overtaking/overtaken the tower computers?

What's also the latest and best video card, not just for Trainz either?

Seems as though the higher the card number, doesn't mean it's the latest or the best.
(Now if we could just find a way to get MSTS to work with Win 7 & higher!)

The required and recommended specs are in the Hardware Discussion thread in the Trainz: A New Era + Kickstarter forum.

Not needed now, problem solved, just a faulty graphics card.

Should the AMD HD7770 card be okay for TS12?

From what I remember learning in the past, all in one's are stationary like a desktop but they use components that can be found in a laptop.

I have Microsoft Train Simulator working on my computer. It is an HP Compaq 8200 Elite CMT PC with Intel Core i7-2600 CPU at 3.4 GHz, 8 GB memory and NVidia NVS 310 graphics card with 512 MB dedicated memory. It is dual boot with Windows 7 Professional and Windows 8.1 Professional.

I do need to lower the resolution from 2560 x 1600 to 1920 x 1200 for MSTS.

MSTS should work just fine on Windows 7 and also on Windows 8, though not on the latter if your computer has an AMD graphics card, as I found out the hard way.
