Hi all.I'm wondering what will do me most good (and get me som FPS over 15 - I would love 25-45):1. A new CPU fx P4 3,2ghz, 800mhz bus, 512kb L2 (installed at the moment: P4 2,8ghz, 533mhz bus, 51kb L2)OR2. New graphic card fx. new ATI Radeon X800 Pro 256mb(installed at the moment: ATI 9700 Pro 128mb)Anyone got any inputs?As stated above my FPS is around 15fps and down to single digits in or around airports (landing and starting). And it sometimes feels very stuttering. I have done the xml-file tweaking as proposed elsewhere in this forum. Ohh, and I have 1024mb of pc400 meamory.Cheers, Mads

Hi P

Walle, you are a stupid fool, Prescotts are crap because they do less work per clock cycle than Northwoods, which is what you already have. A 3.0GHz Prescott = 2.6GHz Northwood. Prescotts are slow and were Intel's atupid attempt to rival AMD's superior Athlon 64. AMD Athlon 64 is the only way to go for a top of the range gaming system

'Walle, you are a stupid fool, Prescotts are crap because theydo less work per clock cycle than Northwoods, which is whatyou already have.' Well, well jetflyer... did you have a bad day, missed a landing, been sacked by your job? It's sad for you that you take my question and conclusion (weather wrong or right)so personally that you have to use offending words. I hope for you that your blackend mood may someday turn blue as the sky. Or that you in the future try to elaborate in a normal way when you use this forum... weather your are normal or not.take care.
