Q: I like to play Flight SimulatorX and I only get about 10fps with my current one. What other things should I know about purchasing a graphics card? Also, I have Windows xp Media Center Edition. THanks.
A: This is a great graphics card, the Nvidia 9800GTX. It retails for about $200 but the PNY Nvidia 9800gtx is only $150 at CompUSA. That's the only video card I really reccomend since it's not only better than the GeForce8 Series, but it's the same price. Lastly, Flight SimulatorX is optomized for DirectX10, which is only available on Windows Vista so if you want it to look the BEST, get Windows Vista.
