Thanks Paul! I'm waiting to get paid Friday but my newegg cart is ready to roll.

I had to edit the post, it auto corrected to fail. I see what your saying. I'm taking a look now. I wasn't trying to be rude at all. I'm shopping newegg as I type.

Extremely valid point. My concern is with weather and things like that. Is the sim smoothish at 20fps? I can't stand lag and shudder on final and things like that. Mind you I don't run AI (fly online) and auto gen isn't hugely important to me.

Thanks for all the replies folks. I'm looking at the GTX680. I hear there is bit of improvement from the 580 to 680, correct?

Hey guys, I've been out of flight sim for 4 years and finally building a new machine. Going with the i7 2600k and hoping to OC. I'm needing a recommendation for a video card to run on a single monitor setup with track ir. Any tips and recommendations would be greats. Thanks!

I just wanted to get a conscientious as to the PMDG customer base about FSX stability. Everytime I get the twitch to build a new machine for FSX and the NGX, I find posts stating how you have to constantly deal with CTD's/reformats/etc. On top of that, I'm a C3 rated controller on VATSIM and see people "drop off" due to CTD's pretty constantly. I have all the popular tweak articles bookmarked and plan to us them, even with those, is FSX still THAT glitchy?

Hey I was working TWR that night. It was radar vectors to join J15. BTG was just used as a anchor for departure. Cheers!

My thoughts exactly. Thats why I'm looking for a close FsNav replacement.

The only reason why I am asking for a tool like this is because sometimes I fly into little known fields that sometimes it is hard to find flight plans to/from so I will build my own route and FsNav worked for that in the map screen. All I had to do was find the navaids between the airports I wanted and select those into the flight plan. I hope I am getting my point across clear enough.Thanks

I have FsBuild. Everyone swears by it and I'm not sure why. Sure it offers a auto generator and stuff but it's kinda basic. Besides, unless I am missing something, I can't view a map to look at the different navaids to choose from on the route I'm wanting to fly, can I? That's why fsnav worked great, I could just drag and drop my route and be done with it. Thanks

I need some help...Getting back into FS (used 9, now coming to X for NGX) and I need a good flight planner. What I'm needing is a tool to use that I can manual select route ie choose the specific VOR/Victor/jet routes/etc that I want to fly and build a plan that way. My top contender is Aivia EFB with FsCommander coming a close second. Can anyone provide any insight as to which program does this better? I don't need anything that will export to fms or what not, I enjoy putting that in myself. Thanks!

Great job on executing a great flight here. But more importantly.... Awesome software!

Can someone explain the UIAutomationcore.dll issue? First time I have seen it. Does the intro doc have a fix for this?

I'm reading through the forums and starting to get discouraged with the NGX and FSX (more the latter: OOM's CTD's etc) the more I read. I am waiting on parts for my new i7 2600K Sandy Bridge, gtx570, 2X4gb DDR3 ram build however all the issues everyone is having is making me nervous I just wasted alot of money... Is there people NOT have issues? If you have any of the specs I just mentioned, please feel free to reply with how things are going for you so far. I'm not saying there isn't people that aren't happy, they just seem to be keeping to themselves if that is the case.

I'm looking at building a system close to yours, hows your performance?
