I am building a new system mainly to run FS9 and FSX as well as other games and programs and would like an opinion on what I should use. Right now I am thinking of

ASUS M4A79T Deluxe AM3 DDR3 AMD 790FX ATX AMD Motherboard - Retail

AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition Deneb 3.2GHz Socket AM3 125W Quad-Core

OCZ Obsidian 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800)

and Ill be running my old EVGA GeForce 9800 GT Hybrid Power 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16

I know the weakest part is the vid card so far. I will update it later on. My big question is will this handle FSX


Thanks
 
Looks good to me..

I would go for an 260 card though..make sure its 256 Bit Interface
