Yes! Since you have an aftermarket heatsink you should OC the i5. This will help improve the performance of FSX.

Did you bought the computer? I have a new computer, almost similar to you, can run FSX (default settings) at almost 87-127fps. I have a Gigabyte P55A-UD3P mobo and a Sapphire HD5750. No OC needed. Just enable the Turbo Boost.
