PC for flight sim X

I have been asked to build a new PC for a friend
he is into MS flight Sim X

heres the spec I am planning

Motherboard: Asus M2N-E AM2
Cpu: Athlon 64 x2 6000+ 3.0Ghz
Ram: 4gb 800mhz OCZ
GFX: Nvidia 8600 GTS 512mb

Not played flight Sim before so not to
sure of the spec needed for a smooth
experience in the game, do you think
it will run OK on the above PC?

    It will run fine on that spec but I don't think there is a PC around at the moment which could truly run it at max settings.
