Can I just ask as getting the Mobo Z97 - A I7 - 4790k 4.0 Ghz Corsair H100i How easy /not so easy is this to build with thermal paste etc.... how much, where, what paste etc... Having never done anything like this before in my life I really want to be going into this eyes open any advice ? Craig

I have I think 480 GB SSD ill buy a 256 GB Plus my 500 GB HDD I really need more ? Im going to run with that cheaper than I expected too. I should be flying again in no time. thanks for all your help so far Craig

So if I choose to build a new rig taking on your advice as best I can I came up with this what do you think ? Corsair vengeance C70 I7-4790k 4.0 Ghz Corsair H100i Z97-A GTX-770 4GB 16 GB Corsair Vengeance Pro DDR3 ( 1866 ) Corsair 256 GB SSD Total £1007 ill use my Corsair HX 750 Corsair 480 GB SSD 500 GB HDD Windows 7 - 64bit What you reckon to this ? Craig

Yeah the for me ( dredded tweeting ) as I have no idea what I am doing. but ill post again when the time is right and get some help on tweeking and what to tweek. My Current set up + £800 spending on it will be I7 4790k Corsair HX 750 ( have ) 16GB Corsair Vengeance1600mhz ( have ) Nvidia GTX 770 -4GB H-100i SSD 480 GB ( have ) Corsair Vengeance C70 CD-Drive ( have ) 500 GB HDD ( have ) MoBo Z97 - A That set up will set me back £800 overclocking I wouldn't do as I dont no what I am doing. Would you say all this would be enough ? Will be flying PMDG ORBX Europe mainly. also the usually difficult landings over the world. Craig

So I posted not so long ago "Advice" about upgrading my current computer to work much better with FSX. After totting it all up GPU, MoBo, Hydro Cooler, Intel I7, C70 Case, £800 give or take. Now I have been thinking if I were to build a computer from scratch. What would you recommend £1500 to play with at a stretch. Craig

Thank you. Craig

I have been away from fsx for well over 12months. I am not starting my return and I have noticed that there is now a REX 4. Wow! I have just watched a video on YouTube and well I was well impressed. on my REX ( not 4 as I don't have this yet ) my clouds would look what I call flat bottom clouds and was annoying to say the least. After seeing this new video of rex4 I noticed the clouds look real no more flat bottom ( maybe this was my set up ? ) Anyway what I would like to know is If using REX 4 what is the strain on your computer compared to REX. Do you need some kind of mega machine to run this new software Craig

So I have another question. my intentions are to get H100i Corsair Intel I7 4790k Asus Z97 - A MIS Geforce GTX 770 Twin Frozr 4GB The PSU I already have is a Corsair HX 750 now will this be enough to power my computer or will I need to upgrade the PSU too ? Craig

I don't really no much about this stuff but as this is the first thing that comes to mind for my self fort id get it out there. Could it be a conflict between the add ons installed ? Craig

Hi. With PMDG I started with the 747 then on to the 737. Not got over to the 777 as yet but maby a great xmas gift lol. PMDG also do great training packages and you cant go wrong with PMDG. You will have many many hours fun ahead of you. Enjoy Craig

Where is the best place to buy Orbx scenery at a reasonable price ? Would like all the uk as a starting point then expand. Any up coming sales ? Craig

There were a mention of a Z97 mobo however there are so many. Any pointers ? As you can tell clueless. Appreciate all your help. Craig

Thank you for the reply. I have now AMD phenom 964 3.4ghz as standard and a friend has an intel not sure what one but I know its less than mine mine also has 4 cores and his as 3. I have noticed that he seems to get better game play on fsx than I do. Now I know the reason Oh just checked out the GTX 770 there are so many types ? would I be better with a 2gb or will fsx use 4gb ? fsx is all that will be played on this computer Ill check them places out thanks for your advice Craig
