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

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
There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

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