Hey NP. DCS seems to have a wide scale for video settings. Most of the sacrifice you need to make is in the terrain graphics. You can still fly with good res aircraft and cockpits on a low end PC with decent frame rates. If you can run AH3 on high settings you should have no trouble with DCS on lower settings.
And I don't know much, but I do know this. With a golden heart comes a rebel fist.

You can run DCS at low settings no problem.

Just make sure you clean out your cache every now and then.

Thanks guys. Just moved to Nevada and the boxes are piled in the garage. Unpacking....
Have my thustmaster gear circa 2000, have the puter which has a bad windows boot sector. Dont remember what is in it even though I built it. Want max recommended for AH.
DCS looks real good and if max AH will run it I'll give it go also. But for now, I'll unpack...
