I would recommend saving your money and wait to buy a DX10 compliant card for FSX.

But that's just me ;)

6600GT minimum, I'm not sure if the LE can get to GT speeds, I seriously doubt it.

Congo all the 6600 cards were manufactured with the same core. Thus meaning that the only difference between the cards is pixel pipelines (which can be unlocked) and the amount and quality of the RAM. So the LE can clock to the GT, and match its top core clock.
