What PSU are you thinking about getting? If you’re going to run VISTA 4 GB of ram is ok but not for XP. It will only use 2Gb. What about you’re MOBO?

I have VISTA and XP on my machine. XP beats VISTA hands down. You will need to do a lot of tweaking to run FSX at full settings or get a lot more horse power.
