 |
|
Hi guys,
Quick question:
I'm running a 3.2 gig with 512 RAM with a Nvidia GE Force FX 5200 (RAM?)
What would be the best bang for the buck upgrade to help FSX run faster? New video card? More RAM?
Thanks for any advice....

At least 1 GB. 2 GB, if you can afford it. I'm no expert of GFX cards, but I suspect yours is not one of the latest. So you might want to think about that, as well.

As CrashGordon says, more RAM will help. As for the card, yes, it is a fairly poor card - I have the same one. You'll greatly benefit from getting some more RAM and a better graphics card. You have a very nice processor, though
