Can u spec me please ?

Hmm just wondering, is it worth the extra to get the 1g gfx460? or because of the price drop would the 768mb be a better choice considering like £80 less?
 
What about ? Would it be overclockable ? Both GPU + CPU ? Anything to change ? Its just something i came up with:P Thanks

That will certainly be awesome! Very overclockable too - 4GHz should be easy.

I tried to find some info on FSX and whether it really makes good use of hyperthreading and tripple-channel ram (i.e. the features of an i7 vs i5), and, as with other games, I'm not really convinced it would. If you switched to the i5 760 and the mobo and ram in my post above, for example, I don't think gaming performance would really suffer and you'd free up about £170 which could get you an SSD maybe, or something more special in the GPU dept like a 480 :). Maybe worth thinking about, or at least do a bit more research on benchmarks for i5 vs i7 in FSX or games in general.

Should run stable at i5 looks like... Would it be worth it going SLI ? Lets say 2x 460 1gb or stick with 480 ? Also if i do decide to go for i5 760 then how much will i be able to overclock it ? Cheers guys
