January 13, 201016 yr Ive had more bad experiences with ATi over nVidia, had 4 of each and not one nVidia card has slightly failed on me.Thanks Dez for your reply.I had a problem with an ATI Card a few years ago; ATI Support said it was due to the nVidia chipset I had, they refunded my money without any poblem. I have used nVidia Cards ever since. I just wondered if things had changed with the new breed of Cards we have now,Ken

If you can get a 8800GTX it remains a superb card for FS9. But I'm guessing it will only be available from a private seller. I'm not up-to-date with current cards so others can probably offer better advice. Ray (Cheshire, England).
