A friend of mine is giving me a Radeon X1800XT 512MB card. Is this a good card to run with FSX/Accel???

Any bad news about this card?? I just dont want to use it if its not really all that great.

Thanks in advanced for the input!

I've never had any experience with a Radeon card, but it's widely known that nVidia is the way to go for Microsoft Flight Simulator. I would rather get a GTX 260/280/285, or for a little lower price than the 260, the 9800.

My own 9600 Mobile performs better than I would have thought at first.. the only problem I have is that I have a ****load of programs running in the background :-[
