• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

graphics card question

Terry

SOH-CM-2016
I have the following two graphics cards on hand. Which one
do you folks think is the best match for an XPS 435 i7-920,
8MB L2 cache 2.66 GHZ, and 8GB of memory. System is Vista 64 bit.
It's primary use is of course FS9 and FSX.

nVidia GeForce 8800GT 512MB
or

ATI Radeon HD4670 512MB

Thanks in advance
Terry
 
I have the 8800GT and I'm a happy customer indeed!!

I will take your collective advice and install the 8800. By the way there are new certified drivers for it available at nVidia.

Thanks
Terry
 
I have two 8800 cards SLIed. If you go that route, be sure and get the latest 182.50 nVidia Forceware drivers. They did wonders with my sky blending over previous drivers.
