Hi,

I would appreciate some advice in upgrading my graphics card.

256MB nVIDIA GeForce 6800 XT - TV-Out + DVI - PCI-Express
AMD Athlon 64 x2 Dual Core Processor 4400+ 2.21 GHz
Memory 3.00GB
Vista Home Premium (SP1) 32 bit

Main programme requiring upgrade FSX (no other games)

FSX graphics are dreadful since upgrading to Vista although they were great on XP SP2 with the same hardware and the same default settings. I do not want to waste money for great performance numbers and barely visible differences.

Selecting anti-aliasing has greatly improved the jaggies but the water effects are still terrible!

Alternatively any suggestions on setting up my current card, or any benefits of overclocking it would be appreciated.
