October 26, 201114 yr Hello,I am wondering if it is a good upgrade from gtx 275 to gtx560ti for fsx? I know fsx is CPU dependent and i wont upgrade if it is very minimal improvement. I am building a new PC very soon and is upgrading to i2500k.Any advices would be appreciated.Thanks!Brian
October 26, 201114 yr I upgraded from a gtx 275 to a gtx 560ti the week the gtx 560ti was released (see my specs below). For FSX the gtx 560ti was a modest but noticable improvement, for as you note it's all in your CPU. For other titles such as Rise of Flight, it was a huge improvement. IMO that 2500K deserves at least a gtx 560ti.
