Update on Radeon card problem

[buzzard2008]

Heya guy's,

Just reffering back to the problem I was having with my Radeon graphics card, I somewhat made the problem a little better by updating my driver but things still are not perfect or at least close to it. I had a suggestion that if I had a good system I might consider moving to Prepar3D and that it maybe a little kinder on my card also is DX11 friendly not that I know much about that lol. How do you guy's feel about Prepar3D, you think I should switch? Its either that or converting to Nvidia, I here it gels better with FSX is this true to some extent? I gotta get the graphics solved before Robins Wellington scenery comes out!!!!

Always been a Nvidia user, for a starter you maybe best to jump straight into P3D , It would be the cheaper option, also depends how many addon's you have, a good Nvidia G/card is worth around the $300 mark.

Heya Ian, yeah I have VLC, NZNI, NZSI, Nelson, Auckland and subscription scenery to date that's all. Will these be compatible with Prepar3D? I spoke to the guy who builds my computer and he says he can get me a Nvidia card worth around $600 retail for around $450 plus a trade in on my Radeon card, that sound like a good deal? And is it ok to have FSX and P3D running on the same machine?

I'd want to check the pricing , .. the Geforce GTX750 Ti $285 .. this is the performance here and you have seen the screens I produce http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gp...-ti/performance

The G/cards have hugely come down in price and shot up in being vibrant and with performance.

You can get EVGA's GTX750 FTW for around $220
