Graphics Cards...

[737NGCapt]

Well I'm finally getting a new computer, i'm tired of poor graphics,speed, etc. I'm looking into getting a Dell and i'm curious as to which graphics card is best to run FS9. There's a choice of the 128MB DDR ATI RADEON 9800 Pro, 64MB DDR NVIDIA GeForce4 MX, 128MB DDR GeForce FX 5200. Any input on these are greatly appreciated.

9800pro is by far the fastest there...just make sure your CPU is better than 2.4 GHZ.  Thats about the minimum for fast performance in FS.

I'm doing fine with my 2.0 and a 128mb FX5200.

Yup, like Jaffa says, the 9800 is certainly the quickest card in your list, from an image quality point of view, I'd be looking at an FX5950 as an alternative.

The CPU is certainly critical here, you'd be wasting money with an FX5950 or 9800 Ati and a low speed cpu..

I've got the now obsolete FX5600 128mb (about

I am running a Dell XPS Gaming Machine on a P4, 2.8 GHZ with an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128 MB using the latest Omega drivers. FS9, FS2k2 and CFS2 run flawlessly, as do all my other latest games. They ran great with the original drivers from Dell too.
