Hm, it'd be interested if you can run light cloud configurations at all with decent framerates. I'm fairly certain that some multilayer overcast cloud configs will mean instand death for your system, but the ones with relatively low cloud count (say, higher pressure, morning flights to keep convective clouds down or island hopping, relatively low visible range ~15 - 20 km, maybe also no detailed clouds) might be easier on your system than the standard layers.
