Which Graphic Card to get?

Featured Replies

I want to update my Graphic card and have the following 2 in mind:1) GTX570 http://www.bestbuy.com/site/EVGA+-+GeForce+GTX+570+1.25GB+GDDR5+PCI+Express+2.0+Graphics+Card/2389207.p?id=1218324435018&skuId=23892072) GTX560 Ti http://www.bestbuy.com/site/EVGA+-+GeForce+GTX+560+Ti+1GB+GDDR5+PCI+Express+2.0+Graphics+Card/2389164.p?id=1218324435840&skuId=2389164Which one will be the best performance for the Buck? I have a core i7 2600K and a p67 motherboard but the graphics card I got now is just slowing me down on fsx. (At least i think it is? I have the 9800 GTX+ 512MB) so would it be worth the extra money to get the 570 or just stick with the 560 Ti.Thanks for any replies in advance

GTX 560TI 1GB GDDR5

I just recently put a 560Ti in and couldnt be happier (went from ATI 512). I went for this over the 570 as i have a lower end system (P5 mobo at 2.8).

Hi,I just built a new FSX rig based on the i7-2600K and P67. I went for the EVGA GTX560Ti and it works real nice. Cools temps. I'm getting around 33C as a system temp.Currently getting 40FPS with the Queen at a complex airport like Frankfurt running at 3.7Ghz.I hope that helps.RegardsMark

What res monitor do you run and do you use nvidia inspector?If you're running a higher res like 1920x1080 and want lots of AA (8xSQ for example), I'd get the GTX570. Otherwise the 560ti will be fine.

I am running at 1920x1080 and will upgrade the GPU again for FSX. This card is for FS9 so I don't worry about FPS with my rig, would just like to know what drivers are stable etc. My ATI card died so this is a quick upgrade to get me back in the air. It's been years since I used NVIDIA so not too sure about drivers etc. With ATI the latest drivers were not always the best option.Also yes I will be using inspector, is that not the best way to go?Thanks
