Hello all. I am looking to upgrade my 2 8800 superclocked cards I have in Sli mode to the latest and greatest Geforce cards. I saw on one site the GT 210 and 220? As i am only familiar with their cards up to say the 9800 series (or is it 9500) i'm not sure in their new card line up. I don't want to downgrade for sure so if someone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it. Thanks!


Mike

Certainly don't downgrade to GT 210/220...
I would say a GTS 250 would be around the same as a top end 9 series ( like the 9800 )
And then from the GTX 260 to GTX 295 they increase in power.

If I were you I would buy a GTX 280 or 285 ( or if you're not just running FSX you could get the top of the range Nvidia GTX 295 ).
FSX only recognizes one chip graphics card, whilst the 295 has two.
