If I were you I'd wait for the DX 10 cards and bump up the ram. They may make a bootcamp setup for the Mac and Vista, that's the only way your going to get DX 10, it won't work on XP.

I could always install vista on my 2nd drive. It doesn't look like mac will have DX10 card for at least the next year!

What rates would you expect my machine to run FSX? Marks out of 10 lets say.

10 being high, a 7 or better. Don't judge by the FPS I've flown smoothly at 8FPS in FSX never in FS9.

Ok i'll stick with what i have and pray that Apple release a DX10 card some time this century javascript:emoticon''
