This is a great place to look for all those looking to build or upgrade their processors..... It is a little long,but lots of comparison graphs on the issue.....http://www.guru3d.com/article/cpu-scaling-...re-processors/1

Thanks, interesting.Be great if AVsim or another FS site would benchmark FSX.Tom's Hardware numbers mean little with his Max Details settings.I've built a few FSX systems of late, and I think once over 3Ghz dual core with a 8800GTX, little gains are left to be had in spending more.

I agree mostly with the technogoly avaible today.....My best set up by far was with SLI 8800GTS's on a Quad Q6600 O/C @ 3.42And it rocked........
