Hello everyone...Hope ya'll doing great. Well, I decided to move with Sandy and since Micro-center had it on sale (good sale), I told my wife that my computer had failed and I needed to buy some parts for it. So, I ran (or drove rather) as quick as I could to Microcenter 3 days ago, got an Intel i7 2600 K and and an MSI MOBO P 67A-GD65. At first I was going to go with the Asus Board (deluxe), but since I've had back luck with Asus in the past I decided to try MSI.---So, I got home and switched CPUs and MOBO which I had built (i7 950)3 months ago and installed Sandy. Well, long story short, guys, I can testify that this new CPU is absoluetly fantastic!. I OC it easily to 5.0 Ghz but decided to leave it at 4.80 Ghz to be save and I'll tell you...FSX runs so smooth (no lagging) that I see it and not believe it.... Very nice !So, if anyone wondering if it makes a difference-- yes it does; it's a leap of performance !John
