Been thinking of upgrading my computer simply for fsx. I'm running a toshiba x205 sli2. Running max ram and the old t8100 chip. Nothing special but runs. I'm getting frame rates of 20ish FPS. I have barely any scenery running and nothing aftermarket besides the planes of a2a. I have scenery but can't install due to computer limitations. Any thoughts?

I'm thinking about upgrading to Alienware
Intel Core i7-2670QM Processor
Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit), 18.4" WLED WideFHD (1080p) Display
8GB, DDR3, 1333MHz, 2 DIMM Memory
1TB RAID 0 (2x 500GB) 7200RPM Solid State Hybrid
1.5GB GDDR5 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560M

Is anyone running similar and what's it run like.
