Not sure what hardware you have, or not, but TrackIR 5 is a must for me. Saitek has plenty of hardware to choose from also like radio stacks, switch panels, gauges, yokes, etc. The A2A J-3 Cub is just a great plane to fly and very realistic in its handling. A2A 3D Lights A2A Accu-Feel v2 Any ORBX scenery is great, but the PNW has a lot to offer LINDA - to control all those add-on hardware switches Carenado Planes - just great planes here ( the C172 is great ) Alabeo planes ( also found on Carenado's web site) EZCA ( a.k.a. EZDOK) - to control your cameras REX4 Texture Direct IRIS Warthog Driver RemoteFlight MAP ( and others) if you have an iPad and/or and iPhone

sorry - got it... fixing now.....

Thanks for the info, I'll look into the 780ti. Also, I updated my sig with the requested info. Cheers

I'm looking to upgrade from my GTX560 to something with more horsepower to more closely match my CPU so I can get a better experience in FSX. See my signature for system specs. I currently run the latest FSX with all upgrades in DX10 mode. I use REX Overdrive (latest version) for my weather engine, REX 4 Texture Direct, ORBX sceneries, Carenado, Alabeo, IRIS and A2A add-on aircraft along with accu-feel. Also use the latest DX10 Fixer from Steve. Run on a single 24" wide screen monitor at 1920x1280 res - using an external frame rate limiter set to 30fps. Most setting in FSX are at MAX except Autogen = Dense, Water = Low 2x, Vehicles = 7%, Ships & Boats both = 0%, My system runs pretty well, but has occasional stutters and some slowly loading textures which cause occasional black flashes in the sceneries. I'm guessing that the graphics card just can't keep up. So, I'm thinking of upgrading to one of the newer cards, like the GTX970. Perhaps an older card family like the 700 series may be fine if as fast or faster, like the GTX780??? Budget is $500 MAX I'm sure that changing my memory sticks would also help, but I don't know enough about that stuff and haven't researched it yet. Read that NVIDIA is better than ATI for running FSX so that is why I'm leaning towards NVIDIA also. Any and all suggestions appreciated !
