So I bought a nice motherboard bundle which consists of i5 4670K overclocked to 4.2Ghz, ReFlex Asus Z87, 8GB of RAM at 1600mhz and Alphenfohn Brocken CPU cooler. I'm upgrading from a FX-6200 @3.6 GHz and Gigabyte 970A with 4GB of RAM on stock cooler. Would this improve the framerates noticeably for FSX, PMDG 777/NGX, all FSDreamteam sceneries, UK2000, ORBX landclass scenery, REX and ASN?

 

 

I know it's a lot of add-ons but I always disable the sceneries that I don't require if I'm flying into that airport or flying over that area. I would also be configuring the hell out of my fsx.cfg file without a doubt. 

 

 

What are your opinions about it?

Configure the hell more out of your cfg.

 

Its the only way to fly.

Yes it will, you`ll be fine with that Haswell. I  just went from a Q6600 @ 3.4Ghz, 8800GT to a 4670k @ 4.5Ghz 1.255v & GTX 760. Intel's single threaded performance blows AMD away in FSX. 

 

I have lots of scenery stuff that I could barely use previously due to frame rates. VAS is the only issue now.

Use Word Not Allowed's guide for tweaking cfg.

 

Cheers
