  1. This is my first post! I was a hard core flight sim user in the 90's but had to take an extended leave due to life. Now wanting to get back into it. I've read extensively on the computer requirements for FSX and am planning to build my own system. I know zero about computers so this will be a great and challenging learning experience (and I won't be doing it solo, FYI). Anyway, here's the system I plan to build. Comments are much appreciated.Case: Antec 300 IllusionCPU: Core i7 2600kMotherboard: ASUS P8P67 ProMemory: Mushkin ENhanced Redline 4GB (2x2GB) 1600 mHzPower: Corsair Professional series AX750 750WOptical drive: ASUS SATA 24x DVD BurnerHDD: 2 x Samsung Spinpoint F3 1 TB 7200 rpm\Cooling: Noctua NH-D14 CPU coolerVideo: EVGA GTX 570Monitor: ASUS 23" Widescreen HD 1080pOS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bitAm I missing anything? Will use the computer primarily for FSX, Microsoft office, internet.What should I do for internet access?How do I overclock the CPU to over 4 Ghz?How do I check temperatures to avoid overheating?
