Much appreciated guys
Many thanks for all the comments.
After my onboard built in graphics chip I thought the Radon 9250 for $50 would make a big difference.
After reading all the comments I'll get more prices for the X800 or the 9800pro.
The advice about the extra power supply is appreciated.
I guess it is a real dilema .. in another year my 2.7gig pentium 4 will be old news so upgrading is a little risky.. one is always behind
Still my main interest on the game side is simulators (not DOOM etc where apparently you need real whomp),
so i guess the P4 -- 2.67gig with a new Radon 9800 pro will be adequate for 12-18 months where FS4 is concerned
Although with all the new releases PMDG 747 etc one never knows
Thank goodness I am only a pilot c4 rated at the moment.
