February 16, 201511 yr Hi, Just need some advice on a new graphics card for P3D. Currently I have a Gigabyte GTX 580 which I think is failing, and I have had to reduce clock speed to stop the dreaded NVDKKM401 errors. I believe that is one of the failings of the Gigabyte cards. Anyway, have been looking at this EVGA GeForce GTX 750Ti Superclock 2GB GDDR5 and does fit my budget. Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated. http://www.overclockers.com/evga-gtx-750ti-ftw-graphics-card-review/ System: MSFS2024, ASUS Rog Stryx Z790-A, Intel i9-14900KF, Asus ROG Ryujin III 360 , Asus Hyperion Case,Rog Stryx 4090 OC, Samsung 970 EVO M.2 SSD, 1Tb Samsung 860 EVO SSD,64Gb G Skill Memory, Asus Aura 1200W Gold PSU,Win 11 ,LG C4 48" 4K OLED Screen., Airbus TCA Full Kit, Stream Deck XL.

February 16, 201511 yr How much will you spend on money? I would prefer you a GTX 780Ti or GTX 980 and not the GTX 970 because of the VRam Bug.
February 16, 201511 yr The GTX 750Ti is not enough for P3Dv2 - not powerful enough and only 2Gb. My advice would be to keep saving some money until you have around $250-$300 to spend on GPU MSFS & XP11 - Aviatek G1000 Complex Desktop Trainer - Fulcrum One Yoke - TPR Rudder Pedals - VF TQ6 Throttle - LG 55" OLED Display
February 16, 201511 yr I would prefer you a GTX 780Ti Is 3Gb better than 3.5Gb? And most 970's will perform faster than a Ti when overclocked.
February 16, 201511 yr I would prefer the 980 over a 780 or a 970. I'm also looking for a new graphics card at the moment, because the GTX670 (4GB) isn't perfect for P3D. Philipp Schwaegerl
February 16, 201511 yr Author Thanks Guy's. Looks like I will need to wait a bit longer and get a better card. The 980's sell for about 1000 NZD here. We pay too much for hardware here unfortunately.

February 16, 201511 yr A 970 is still the best value card I doubt anyone is using 3+ GB vram unless you're 4k or multi monitor If you've got money to burn ya go 980 for sure | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |

February 17, 201511 yr I've got an eVGA 970 SC and it's an absolute beast, the 3.5GB thing is like a storm in a teacup, the card does use all 4GB, the last 0.5GB is just not as fast. Definitely go ahead and get a 970 if you can afford it. Beats any card except the 980.
February 17, 201511 yr Any card - did you forget the real beast its called the Titan - couldn't resist Rich Sennett
