Will Flight Simulator X work with an ATI X1650 Graphics 512MB(ATI X20600 512MB) Graphic Card and how smoothly will the game run?
 
I haven't tried it yet (low spec PC atm). It was released on a recent PC Pilot magazine. It tries to address many of the issues people were having with FSX. i.e. they had a decent PC but the game ran too slow & not very smoothly.
 
I have a AMD 3200 64Bit socket 939, 512MB ram and a Radeon 9550 ... I can run flightsim X on lowish graphics, so that card will run it on about medium graphics. But if you are using Vista, I suggest getting at least an 8600GTS as then you can use some of the DX10 features.
 
hmmm.... ya, I assume medium will be the limit for you, BUT then again, you're cpu it faster then 3 of mine(AMD 3200+ 939)... but i know there always overclocking, and even with my x1600pro ddr 3... stock :500 mhz core and 690 mhz ram, i got it to 630 mhz core and 750mhz ram... runs warm. but no artifacts at all... and then just a weee overclock on the cpu, and you'll have a BEAST!

So with the 8600GTS Card how good will the graphics be and will I be able to Run it on HIGH graphics??:eek:
 
Really doubt it, 84, 85 and 8600's are all rubbish cards from what i have heard and FSX is a real bitch to most systems as it is. Lowest i would go would be a 8800GTS 320.
