Hi,I´m from Germany, so don´t be surprised if this English is not as good as yours.I´m planning to buy a new computer and decided to take these components:processor: Intel Core i5-2500Kmainboard: Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD3RAM:: 4096 MB - DDR3-1333videocard: Geforce GTX570 with 1280MB and GDDR5direct X11harddrive: 1000GB (32MB Cache, 7200U/min, SATA II)drive: 22x DVD-burnerpower adapter with 560W •140mm fan • active PFC • connections: 1x 20/24-pin, 1x 4/8-pin ATX12V, 1x 6/8-pin PCIe, 1x 6-pin PCIe, 6x SATA, 2xDo you think that this system is enough to play FSX with REX in highest settings without lagging?Thank´s for your answers in advance.PS: I hope my expressions are reasonably right and clear.

Yeah, looking pritty cool, but why an i5? It would be better if you get an i7-2600k, but all in all an really good system.

Best regards, Steffen

If you were top go with an i7 and a GTX 580. I would up the PSU to at least a 750W. Probably would even with an i5.
ok, but why an i7?i guess it´s the same as the i5, the only difference is, that the i7 has 3,4Ghz, and the i5 has 3,3Ghz
