Hello everyone, I was surfing around the net as usual, trying to find a way to improve my frames in FSX, and from what I have researched, I could buy an external video/graphic card that would plug into a usb or similar port that would help boost my graphics and frame rates at the same time. Is this true, because my maximum frame rate is 20, although I am using my home computer for fsx. (My computer and monitor specs will be below.) I don't want to shell out a fortune on a purpose built computer, but I do need some help finding and external card to serve me. From what I have found on amazon.com and other places like it is external cards made for attaching a second monitor to your computer. Would this also just boost the graphics of my single monitor, or what. I am really lost here and help is greatly appriciated! Please post links!!!!!
