I am planning on buying a really good CPU for FSX, approx. between $1,000 - $1,500 and I see this site looks pretty good, but I would like to know has anybody else purchased from there? or does anyone know of a better site? thanks

If i were you i would take the money and build myself one.I know if you dont know how, it will be hard but MORE MONEY ON POCKET.
But its your choice.

I guess its time for you to learn.The max it can happen is "pc not working"
But if i can do it.You also can do it.And if i menage to keep some $ in pocket its worth it to learn.
With $1500 of budget, you can build a wonderful machine and keep some money.
Tell us what is your decision and help will came along.

I understand, its your $ after all.Good Luck.

Remembering myself in this situation, I bought a second hand PC and asked a tech to build it for me specificly to run FSX. He said this PC will run any game out there, I garantee. That was his first mistake! I took my tower back to him 3 times, I gave him this website address to refer to. Money was really no object, but this guy could not build the system for FSX! My specs below are what I ended up with. 
Next time, I will do it myself, using the advice found at Simv. 

Here is a $900 Intel i720 cpu system that will wipe that $1,500 Xjett 750 off the map:  http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883229102  and now you have an extra $600 to play with.  Whoops .... with the mail in rebate it's only $800.

Well let me put it this way.
1 you rather fix cars than pc? Well think like this the tools you need are cheaper, to build and repair pc's.
2 People are giving you help. In my time and most of this guys time there were no forums to help, all was FPS experience.
3 YOU HAVE THE MONEY?? USE IT.
4 "Sorry my pc crash, how can i do to repair it??" BUY ANOTHER ONE!!!
Good luck.

The rev. on that pc are very good!!

Pros: Very fast machine. A lot of room for upgrades. Very fast shipping. Very good Cyberpower customer service(Try to call early in the morning, hold time can be long)

Cons: I am an nvidia guy. This is my first ATI. I tried to update the drivers and got an error with the ccc. WARNING: uninstall your older drivers before installing the new ones, or you will have the 2 day headache that i went through. I called cyberpower, the guy tried to help me but in vain. So i decided to google the mom.implementation error, and got it fixed at last.
Again, this is not newegg, or cyberpowers fault. thats why they get 5 eggs. As for ATI, I dont know if i was doing something wrong, but i am going back to nvidia(they can find the drivers for me and update them with the click of a button)
Other Thoughts: Very good system for the price. Just spend around 150 bux and get you an nvidia gtx 260 and you will be good to go for a long long time.
About the Mom.implementation...just google that and add ati next to it, you will see how many people had this problem.

Buy it, then dont forget to buy a new video card!!!! The forums will be here!!!

Thank you everybody for all your input, it has all been helpful, right now I think im going to put off that jetlinesystems website because I want to look in to building a system more, but thanks everyone, you saved me from probably making a huge mistake and throwing money down the drain
