Well because FSX is an oldish program it cannot take advantage of Crossfire, so it would only use one Graphics Card.

What Graphics Card is it?

Also what Operating System do you have?

Intel Core i5-2310 CPU @ 2.90GHz, 6GB RAM, AMD Radeon HD 6450, Windows 7 Professional 64 bit, Logitech Extreme 3D Pro

I strongly recommend you buy a 3rd party CPU cooler and overclock your CPU to 4.3 GHz, which is the speed that my 3570K is at. It runs FSX just great. The 0.9GHz increase really makes a difference.

A good 3rd party cooler is the CoolerMaster Hyper212 Evo.

i5 3570K @ 4.3GHz, ASRock Z77 Pro3, EVGA GTX 670 FTW, 8GB DDR3, 128GB Samsung 830, 500GB Seagate Barracuda, Thermaltake Armor A60, Logitech Extreme 3D Pro, Logitech K800, Logitech M510, Windows 8 Pro x64, FSX Acceleration
