I mean after i have sorted my Nvidia Inspector settings, fsx.cfg tweaks. What order should i install (Like general things like GEX, UTX first? followed by the smaller sceneries, followed by REX?)I have a raft of add-ons to install, but in what order would be best (to avoid conflicts)I have Horizons VFR for the UK (all) as well as all the UK2000 airports.I have UTX for both EU and USAI have GEX for both EU and USA/CanadaREXShade and a loads of US/Asian airports.

Start with basic stuff:Elevation (Mesh), Landclass, Texturing...And then aircraft and airports.Then tools: FSUIPC, traffic, ATC management...GEX is definitely installed AFTER UTX. And REX doesn't really matter.That's kind of a short-manual to what to install first.

Defrag your HD, but not using the Win 7 defragger.

No problem. What's the bad mobo you ordered?

I wanted the Asrock Z68 PRO3, But had to order the Gigabyte Z68. The problem appears to be that the Gigabyte one only has a 4 pin CPU input where as the Asrock one has an 8, so overclocking the i5 2500k will be a problem.
