Geforce 4600 to 9800 pro

[Guest]

I would like to know if anybody here has regret going from a Geforce 4 to 9800 pro(or 9700 pro) . Was the price to steep for the performance obtained? problems with installation or drivers? My performance in FS2004, which is not bad, has some graphic (loading texture/squares)problems that I want to fix. Any help?? P4 2.0Ghz, 640 RDRAM, 80 gb HD, audigy2, 4600ti,viewsonic vx900.Thanks , Alberto

You can control how fast the program sends textures to your video card by adjusting the bandwidth_mult= setting in the fs9 cfg file. I set mine to =400 and now the textures load instantly. It may cause some momentary stutters though on a card with less than 128mb ram. Give it a try.

Thanks; but I tried that with no difference, maybe I should get more ram or keep tweaking things a little. Alberto.
