I am not good on computers very much... but I am building a new computer for FSX. I am tight on money, and its not very important to me that every FSX slider is all the way up.

 

I need to know if I am missing any hardware component...

 

i am going to get:

 

Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo Boost) LGA 1155 95W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 3000 BX80623I72600K

 

EVGA 01G-P3-1556-KR GeForce GTX 550 Ti (Fermi) FPB 1GB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

 

COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 Plus RR-B10-212P-G1 "Heatpipe Direct Contact" Long Life Sleeve 120mm CPU Cooler Compatible Intel Core i5 & Intel Core i7

 

Acer S201HLbd Black 20" 5ms LED-Backlight LCD monitor 250 cd/m2 ACM 12,000,000:1 (1000:1)

 

ASRock H61M-DGS LGA 1155 Intel H61 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard

Assuming you already have a case, keyboard and mouse.

 

MB is on your description

I edited with the motherboard.

 

Logitech 963290-0403 Extreme 3D Pro USB Joystick

 

 

Western Digital Caviar Blue WD5000AAKX 500GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive

 

 

What is a good memory??

Stick to Corsair or GSkil or well known brands with 1600 speed ...not sure how much Gig Memory you are looking for for 4Gigs you could get for around $24 for 8 Gigs (2 x 4)speed 1600 memory you could for around $45.

Get an I5 2500K or 3570K and put what you save towards a board that will allow overclocking (P67, Z68 or Z77)

Also get a GTX460 instead of that 550Ti
