It's time for an upgrade! Or so I think...

 

Im a little confused when it comes to a few FSX hardware issues. If someone could answer a couple questions or steer me in the right direction i would really appreciate it!

 

My current desktop runs fsx fairly well until it comes to bad weather.Rain and heavy clouds bring my FPS into the low teens and it drives me crazy.. Im looking to upgrade my gpu because i feel like I might be missing something looks wise and performance wise when it comes to FSX. When it comes to upgrading the GPU im not really looking to break the bank but im sure i could find something fairly decent at a decent price. My computer is pretty much used for strictly FSX so I wont really be playing many other games or anything to that nature. Is there a paticular range of gpu's sthat would benefit me in the area that im looking for?

 

I run the usuall add-ons..Orbx, rex OD and a few add on payware aircraft.

 

Here are my system specs:

CPU - Intel I7 2600 @ 3.4 (not able to overclock)

GPU - Nvidia Geforce GT 530

8 GB of ram.

windows 7 64 bit

 

 

If anyone has any questions about my system feel free to ask away..

 

 

GTX660 or 760 would really help overall.
