Vid Cards

I would like to know what type of Video card is recommended for CFS2? Also I need to replace my power unit so any recommendations would help. I am going to take My game PC in later to day and get a new hard drive put in and have them put in Vista or windows 7 as the OS. I want to get back to flying CFS2. Before I lost my hard drive. I will post more info after I get the PC back.
 
Bob, i'm sure like most your computer serves many purposes, but if your primary gaming goal is getting back to CFS2, you'd be better served by avoiding Vista, going W7 and installing an Nvidia card along with a new PSU of 650w or better.

I'm still happy with my 3 yr old Nvidia GTS250. It handles CFS2 very well, as well as FS9 and FSX. In my experiences, Radeons seem to need more tweaking for MS sims.
