July 1, 200916 yr hi.As i am very keen on playing fsx ,so i decided to buy a new pc and i have ordered the following configuration:Cpu: I7 9206 gb rad ddr 3 750W CHIEFTEC P.S. 140MM FANGalaxy GTX 295However, i am concern about the video card.I was reading in many forums that the dual Gpu cards aren't appropriate for palying fsx but with this config would i play fsx at high settings on at least 30-40 FPS?or should i choose another video card?

July 1, 200916 yr Your new setup will run FSX nicely if you OC that i7 920. Two video cards are only good in FS if you are running multiple monitors.Bob Bob i5, 16 GB ram, GTX 960, FS on SSD, Windows 10 64 bit, home built works anyway.

You'll get better performance with a cheaper 285 GTX. And I7 920 D0s are easily overclockable as long as you use a decent heatsink/fan.

I've got those (though I don't know what a heatsink is, and I have 2 fans as part of the case), but I don't know how to overclock or what that means. Could someone explain or point me in the right direction? I spent much money and am still on FS9!Thanks
