• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

XP and Video cards

Actually, you might want to check it and see how the Demo runs it. I am pretty sure it will run smoothly already on your existing system.

Austin doesnt make this for systems that do not exist yet. Your existing rig should run it fine.

I should also recommend that you not think of this sim as a comparisson with FSX. It has FSX qualities, like autogen and things, but its totally different. It uses OpenGL for its graphics instead of DirectX. DirectX has bombed lately. OpenGL has always been easy on rigs and GC's. Try the Demo and load up (max out) the graphics settings and see if you even need to update your rig.

Actually I already have XP-9 but like lots of eye candy and it brings my system to its knees when everything is set on high.

I have decided to go with the gtx260 due to OC ability/performance.
Thanks for the input.
