pcpartpicker.com doesn't actually sell the item, it just aggregates the price data from multiple merchants to compare.

that link from pcpartspicker is a link to newegg who is the biggest pc parts reseller. the gtx750 is probably more horsepower than you need, and there will likely still be a cpu bottleneck. you can also look at the gt740 or gt730 as they are cheaper and less powerful. at any rate, the gtx750 will play battlefield 4 at 1080p on medium settings and stay slightly above 30fps.... far more demanding of a game than flight simulator.

that said, a quick look up for the fsx benchmarks show that it is a very cpu intensive game, much more so than on the gpu. you might want to look around on fsx forums and see if there is a better option for you since your cpu is going to bog down the game even if you have a ultra powerful gpu.

What is your budget, and how many wattage is your PSU?

If you have like a 650W PSU then you should get a GTX 480 from Ebay. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odkw=GTX+570&_from=R40&...


Did you just suggest a 5 year old card? The GTX 750 performs nearly on par and and uses less power...

lol no it doesnt, GTX 750 is absolute shit, so what if the GTX 480 is old, it still performs like a beast.

fsx is an 8 year old game, and it shows, as it cannot address high threads, and really doesn't care about more than 2 cores. it really just wants 2 cores running as fast as they can... paired with current generation entry level gpu like the nvidia gt630/gt730 or amd r7-240. otherwise it seems peoples goal is just to get the game running buttery smooth at 30fps. you might want to think about getting an entirely new system if you intend on running this simulator for a long time.

i could say you can build a fairly fast pentium g3258 rig with an entry level gpu for about $400, but that might not be an option for you.

Hmm looks like I found a bad Firestrike result for the 480 then, because it was around the 750. Still I wouldn't buy a 5 year old used card that is that power hungry and would be held back by the CPU most likely anyway.

well like i said... the gtx750 is going to be your best bet. the 750 doesn't require any power pins from your power supply. we dont even know what power supply you have. its also very likely that your power supply is very weak... 250-350 watts. any graphics card higher than the gtx750 will require at least on 6 pin power connector from the power supply, which your power supply might not even have. the 750 works on a 75 watt max, it will get all the power it needs from the pcie16x connector that you will plug it into, and will work fine. that all said, in fsx, you might not see any improvement since the game seems get 75% of its performance from a fast cpu, and 25% performance from the graphics card. as far as games like battlefield 4, there are plenty of benchmarks, but they are using much more powerful newer quad core cpus. you will have a cpu bottleneck, but they will likely run better than fsx because they are more optimized.

http://www.anandtech.com/show/7764/the-nvidia-geforce-g...

there is bf4 on the 750... 1080p@medium settings running 64.4fps. but remember there is no cpu bottleneck in that review, so you could expect anywhere from 5-20fps less than what they get since your e5700 is anywhere between 50-75% slower than the tested cpu depending on thread count.

Like I said I was looking at Firestrike scores, though the 480's range from 4000s to 10k(somehow higher than than a 780ti) so it is tough to tell what it was preforming at.

gtx750... or possibly a pcie only powered gtx750ti. those are the most powerful cards you can currently buy that will plug right into your system without issues. i vote for gtx750
