    Can anyone describe to me how well FSX performs with the Geforce 8600m gt. Perferably ddr3, but a gs or gt with ddr2 will still give me a general idea of how well it will performs. Thanks

    20-30 fps with most options on high, weather and traffic is what will kill your framerate.

    FSX runs good on my system (see signature). Most options on high, airport traffic set to none and cloud view distance quite low.
