Video card to support new AFP Delux flight simulator

[Bob Pastorello]

Dion Cini at Ohio Model Products (US distributor for AFP Deluxe) has told me that my FX 5200 w/64mb will be fine...I'm still eyeballing a ATI9600, though....seems the higher processor speed and 128mb is really what makes the 3D engine sing...
    nVidia processors now are up to 5900-series, if I've read price-watch.com correctly.

  You can geta used NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 off ebay for around $40 plus shipping.  These are 128MB APG 4+ video cards.  Same company was the card you are using and at least 2 generations newer.

    I need help from the computer literate.  I would like to purchase the new AFP Delux flight simulator program.  It appears my computer's video card will not support the program.

    I pulled the spec sheet on my Sony computer. It is a Sony Vaio PCV-RX560 computer with: 
    1.7GHz, 256MB RAM, NVIDIA TNT2 M64 (32MB) graphics acceleration. 
    Do I need to both upgrade the RAM and the graphics card? 
    What is a good "plug-in" graphics card that will do the job but is still fairly inexpensive? 

    Thanks - Steve
