Well ,I now know just how under powered my pc was, I used to have a 305W dell PSU, running the whole puter plus a 7950GT card. About an hour ago I added a 550W PSU, while I have only gained a couple FPS in games, I see now that my video card especially was lacking. It produces sharper textures,and faster loading, along with a more "full" area of autogen in the sim. So in conclusion, 80 dollars well spent

Indeed! My new PSU cooled down my system by around 20 degrees or so...FS9 ran like a charm 8-)

buying my new PSU actually allowed me to use my graphics card (250W with a 8600GTS = not gonna work)

thermaltake tr2 500W FTW
