I've got a marginal machine for gaming, but I've been pleased with FS2002 with the sliders set lower. (Celeron 2.4mhz; 512k ram; Intel built-in graphics)Two questions:1) Is it true that I won't see a decrease in performance with FS2004 assuming similar settings?2) Can anyone recommend a graphics card? I am NOT a hardcore gamer, and would only use it for FS. I would like something that will improve performance, but don't want to spend much money. I was hoping to spend around $75, although that may be unrealistic. I just don't spend enough time playing games to justify spending much more - especially when new computers can be had for $500! Is it worth it at that price point? Or do I really have to spend $150 and up to make a worthwhile difference?Thanks for your help.

FS9 on those settings would run lower than 2k2 that you have now. If you upgrade your ram, you should see a little bit quicker performance. The vid card in FS9 would increase detail of the picture and give you some more frames. If your under 100$, go with the 9200 128MB. Id reccomend the FX5900 or the ATI9600XT that i run and am happy with it. I plan to go to the X800 this year though.. :)
