January 24, 201214 yr Yeah, loving the black & white theme too!I agree! My next build is going to be built with parts that have some theme.
January 24, 201214 yr What?!? 3 way SLI?!? :cray: :cray: :cray: i7-6700K @ 4.5 GHz, 16 GB DDR4-2400 MHz, GTX 1070 8GB
January 24, 201214 yr I wonder how much in terms of FSX these two CPU´s are worth. I´ve heared that it won´t make any real difference. Is that right? Best regards, Steffen Fight time: NGX 737-700: 37,0h; -800: 47,2h

January 25, 201214 yr I wonder how much in terms of FSX these two CPU´s are worth. I´ve heared that it won´t make any real difference. Is that right?That is what I am going to find out. They said that FSX is CPU hungry, then they say its hungry for RAM, and then they say its hungry for Video RAM.... different sites has different aspects on how FSX should run.So, I now have 2 CPUs, 24 GBs of RAM, running FSX on a 120GB SSD.... and I am going to buy 3 GTX 550 ti (2GB RAM per card). Then I want to see what excuse they can come up with. :Nerd: Rodney E. Jacobs

Then I want to see what excuse they can come up with. :Nerd:This is a hot topic here in the hardware forums Rodney, and one where almost everybody agrees. FSX is CPU bound, but not in a way that will take advantage of an SR-2 system.You are adding cores that FSX won't use, at the expense of raw speed, that FSX loves. So I'm afraid you'll be extremely disappointed.FSX doesn't benefit from more than 3 cores, it's much better to have a fast quad core and overclock itSame goes for multi-GPU as Ben explained

I'm sure that FSX isn't the only game Rodney plays. i7-6700K @ 4.5 GHz, 16 GB DDR4-2400 MHz, GTX 1070 8GB
