Long time I don't fly anymore but I hope I can start again in the next months; so I'm thinking about getting myself a new pc. As everyone, I'd like it to run FSX with max settings, addons included ( aircrafts - for example LevelD 767 and PMDG MD11 - , sceneries, traffic, weather programs - maybe I could run weather on a second pc, etc) with at least a decent frame rate. So here's what I'm aiming to:

 

- Case: MidiTower ATX ITEK REPLAY 2.0 (ITP43OS)

- Power Supply: ADJ 210-00700 700W

- CPU: INTEL CORE i7 4790K 4,0Ghz 8Mb cache sk 1150 BOX

- Cooling: INTEL Ivy Bridge AIR COOLER

- Mobo: ASUS Z97-K

- Ram: CRUCIAL CT102464BA160B 16Gb DDR3-1600 (2x8Gb)

- Video card: GAINWARD GEFORCE GTX 970 4Gb GDDR5

- Audio: REALTEK ALC 898 7.1 Channel High Definition Audio CODEC (onboard)

- Hard Disk: WESTERN DIGITAL 1Tb WD10EZRX 64Mb cache SATA3

- Solid State Disk: KINGSTON SSDNOW SV300S37A/240G 240Gb SATA3

- DVD: LG GH24NSB0 24X SATA Dual Layer

 

What do you think about it? Will it be enough or is there something wrong with this configuration? How many FPS would you expect it to get from this pc (provided I tweak everything in the config files)?

Thank you in advance!
