Help choosing Graphics Card

[ovechkin1313]

Hi , i recently got myself a gaming rig ; i5 2500k @ 4ghz, p8z77 motherboard, 16gb kingston ddr3 ram, and 620wtt psu.

I want to max out fsx, and was wondering if anyone could link me to a great video card for it to max it out at maxed resolution. I play flight simulator x , and want the card to be from ncix.ca please help me out as i want to get it by tommorow morning

Regards, Billy

hi billy,

what kind, model, of 620 watt PSU is it and what kind of budget are you looking at?

It would have helped to have a budget.

Based on your power supply this card will work well with the other components and should be good for FSX. If 2gb is needed for that game then you could go with this card;

Another card to consider is ;

Antec HCG-620M 620W ATX12V Modular SINGLE-RAIL 48A 80PLUS Bronze 135mm Fan Active PFC Power Supply is the psu , im budget is 300 dollars fora good video card for solely fsx; the person at ncix.ca choose the evga 560 ti , but im not sure if its good , is that the best one out right now ? I wana be able to max out fsx, except traffic.

[strike]EVGA GeForce GTX 560 Ti - 448 $289.99
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130758
$259.99 after mail-in rebate card

better than the 560ti as good as a 570- anything better will be at least $50+ more for a 7870[/strike]

NEVERMIND! sorry i forgot about ncix.ca requirement

I don't know your finances but here is an opprtunity to get a GTX 580 for $40 after rebate over your budget , with this card you will have no trouble whatsoever of maxxing out FSX.

This card is much better than the 560Ti and under your budget.

http://ncix.ca/products/?sku=69586&vpn=R7870%20Twin%20Frozr%202GD5%2FOC&manufacture=MSI%2FMicroStar

Another card that is over your budget but would give you powerful performance and I am only giving you these cards to look at as I had said I don't know your limitations and if you can't swing the extra then no big deal just ignor them. The 570 is in your budget and would be a good card to get.
