How many ghz needed?

Katana, your cpu @4ghz helps over the stock clock how?. I'm not understanding what you mean in light of b101's claim that at stock speed his 920 is hardly taxed.
I'm a bit confused.
thanks,

I meant most flights sims/games in general, FSX in particular sees a big performance gain once the CPU is over-clocked.

Once IL2 is properly optimised for CPU and multi-core we should see those same sort of gains too in this sim.

EDIT: and come to think of it, IL2 CoD maxs out core one on my quad at stock speed and over-clocked ... I use a G19 keyboard with the performance meter on its LCD and can monitor core usage in real time while flying the sim.

I can only speak for myself, too many variables with different PC hardware, one obvious difference between my rig and b101's is that I'm using a GTX570.
