Got a I5 gigabyte ud3 gskill ripjaw 1600 and a coolermaster hsf, it runs great it has made a big difference in rise of flight, i had 20 planes in the air and it was choppy now its smooth with 40, il2 is better too, as for other games well i cant see any difference tbh, the cpu never goes above 51c and its running turbo mode so 3.3 gig. The hsf seems to holding up fine. but I doubt it would hold up to 4 gigs. Is it much better than my old 6850 yes esp in the 2 flight sims i play and my 6850 is in my sugo sg1 so its not wasted. Im buying a house so I decided to take the plunge before the wife tightens the purse strings.
Im happy with my i5 build

Games like il2 are amazing when you can fill the sky with b17's @ night and shoot them all down with your schwarm of focke wulf 190's. I know thats what i did when i built my first pc, crucified them as well and i lost my vid replay
