Dont get any thing with on board graphics...pure crap.
Fsx wants powerfull graphics card.Cpu not that big a deal,My core2duo isnt really used 100% when i play .i7 isnt as important as gpu.
Fsx will bring the most powerfull i7 system to its knees,without an kick ass gpu.
You want an gpu with as much memory as You can afford,at least 512,best 1 gig.
HAve alook at toms gpu charts...
Look at; 9800gt low end or 260**, mid range.or a nice 285gtx oh ya!
