The problem is not the graphics card. The problem is your CPU. FSX is very cpu limited. And Traffic on 50%?!!? Not even a computer with a QX6850 can handle that... even on small airports, much less on large airports. Decrease your traffic settings to like 10% and your scenery complexity a bit. THat should give you better fps at bigger airports... but don't expect anything great. Even top-of-the-line pc's can't handle FSX very well on areas like New York or London Heathrow.
