What about this system?

Hi all,

What about this system for FSX:

Intel i7 950 @ 4.6 GHz Windows 7, Forcware 182.52, ASUS P6T7 WS, GTX-280, Memory: OCZ Blade 2000MHz 7-8-7-20, 2x SAS 15k Raid 1 with 256MB Controller.

I got all this info from a friend. Still have to get more. Cost is not a factor since I'm getting this for about 500$ - 1000$.

Regards,
JJ.

Why not?? If it's that inexpensive you could invariably change about equipment as issues or changes you would want later come up.

That will be a great system.. if you can get it cheap then get it..

In India, you can get anything you want for a reduced cost (not online, from a local store). I got MS Office for 8$.

I'll look into this. Perhaps my friend got it wrong...

Hello,

I have looked into this and it is very much possible. Although, it may require quite some work. This is an experts opinion:

My i7 950 was overclocked. I was lucky with that CPU, because not every i7 is able to overclock that much.

Yes, he got to 4.6 GHz. If the shop has I am purchasing from already has a overclocked one then I might be lucky too. If not, I can still wait for them to tweak it or settle with the stock one because that's quite fast too.

Regards,
JJ.
