November 28, 201015 yr Hey guys. I have a i5-750 @ 4.0ghz/4gb DDR2 and a GTX 285. Has anyone gone from a 285 to a for 470 and think the difference is worth it?
December 1, 201015 yr Not worth it for FS really. If you use other games and are interested in DX11 then it may be worth the price, however a performance increase would be marginal in most games. If you can get a good price for the 285 then it might be worth a punt, but don't expect a night and day difference. i7 2600k @ 5.1Ghz, ASUS Sabertooth P67, 8GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600Mhz, EVGA GTX 580 @ 950MHz, OCZ Vertex II 240GB, ASUS Xonar DG, Thermaltake Toughpower XT 875W PSU, Antec KÜHLER 620 W/C, Corsair 600T SE White My FS9 Screens - http://fs9screens.blogspot.com/ Callum Richardson
December 3, 201015 yr Hi there,I received my gtx 480 today and replaced my old gtx 285 with it. I have to say it is louder than a 285 but it is worth it.FSX runs really smooth now! Cheers Jan 9800X3D | Asus ROG Astral 5080 | 64GB G.Skill RipJaws | 1T/2T/4T Samsung 990 PRO | Windows 11 | MSFS
