Hi All,A local PC shop is selling a nice computer that I think would do well with FSX. Here are the specs:Intel Core i5 2500KCorsair H50 Hydro CPU CoolerAsus P8P67 Rev 3.0 DDR3 USB3+SATA32x4GB DDR3-1600 RAM1TB HDD with 32MB cacheEVGA nVidea GeForce GTX560 Ti Superclocked 1GB GDDR5 PCI-ESeasonic M12II Bronze 620W PSUPlease tell me what you think. Suggestions welcome.Philip Dunlop

That looks like a pretty good default system to run FSX these days. Plan to OC to 4GHz. or higher for good FPS. I would suggest two things:1. A good PSU (800 watts or so)2. A second hard drive. One for the OS and the 2nd for FSX.Just my 2

I own very similar configuration (i5 2500, 2x4GB RAM, GeForce 450GTS with 1GB GDDR5. Only what you need for smooth FSX working is 64bit Win7 OS.I'm using FSX with Acceleration, REX and I have details and autogen set as high as possible because I often fly low with heli (my favourite is 206 from Dodosim).You should be satisfied with configuration you described.

That PSU is plenty as long as you don't starting adding multiple video cards.System looks great overall.
