Hello fellow simmers, captjim here,

I'am trying to find out what is the best card to use for my fs2002/04 sims.  I have the following system:  Genunielntel x86 Family 15 model 1 stepping 3 256 0mb Ram 32bit.  Viewsonic G90fb2 on Vision TecXtasy 9200. (hope that makes sence)  I know that there are exppansive high end cards out there, but are they actually worth it.  Does it really improve the system that much.  Sure would like some im-put on this question.       Thanks, again  captjim

It would be best if you asked that at the Hardware forum

Cheers,
Ashar

Hi Jim, well it comes down to budget really, but for FS the GeForce Ti range are best really.
I run FS on a Ti4600 and still get good results, but if you can afford it go for a newer card. You'll want to up your RAM to 512mb at least for FS9 as well

I generally recommend the 6600 gt as it offers the best performence for its price.

BTW, you never said what the clock rate of your CPU was.

Sorry Ozzy, your praising a Dinosoar!  :P  ;D

Anybody looking for an FS9 friendly graphics card needs look no further than the 6600GT.
