ok, just wanted to ask a newbit question.
I have one pretty good new comp with an oc i7 930 at 4.0ghz with good ram and a fast HDD.
Only problem is flying the heavy addon payware aircraft. e.g. E-Jets Embraer 175-195
How have a 2nd computer which is still good and runs fs9 smoothly at maxed out settings. Can I some how use this over a network with widefs to increase my FPS?
e.g. getting the 2nd comp to do some of the work on the extensive flight computers and weather etc?

Why do not use the multicore enviroment advanced program? Just google it and you will find it.

im not sure this software is my solution. I can already set programs to different cores manually what im trying to find out is taking a advanced frame rate heavy aircraft like PMDG 747x and split up its task into 2 computers or optimize fsx through 2 computers.

Hello..
Take a look at Wideview (http://www.wideview.it/). Outside visuals on your fast machine and aircraft sim on the other.

ok sounds good, but if I have one output through a triple2go with 3 monitors from one machine graphics are displayed on all 3 so how do I divide the outside simulation on the fast machine and the sim on the other on wideview? Would I not have to put the sim on its own monitors?

Yes, you would need monitors on both machines. The aircraft sim machine runs an outside view of something trivial which uses minimal resources. For a better appearance, run with all gauges detached from the main panel. If you like to fly in the 3D VC, Wideview would probably not suit you.
