I know absolutely nothing about these types of upgrades and whether my "Motherboard" can handle this and that...
I have Microsoft`s Flight Sim X and was advised by a few people on one of the Flight Sim Forums to upgrade my Video Card and my Ram Memory to increase the performance and quality when "Flying" FSX...
I described my computer to them in detail and they told me I should look for a: Nvidia GeForce GTS 250 pci-express X16 video card...*$120 - $145...???
My question is: if I can use the above card would this card work: Nvidia GTX 285
1gb-GDDR3-Nvidia 3D Vision Ready-HDTV-2 Dual Link DVI-Graphics Clock 648MHz
Processor Clock 1476MHz
*I can buy this used in my local classifieds for $80*
The "Ram" upgrade suggested was a matched set of 2gb sticks of 400MHz *effectively 800Mhz in dual channel mode*
*Corsair Twin 2 X 4096 -6400C5*
Is this ram available in other brand names...
Thanks for any help or additional info for a complete Newbie...
