Is that a good one?
And will it run FSX Acceleration?
Is it a good price?

Thanks!

With the mail in rebate? Hell yeah, that's a good price! =D

However, that seems to be a somewhat low-end card. Why don't you save up and buy a GREAT one?

I'm trying to keep this below $80. I just want something that will allow me to run FSX Acceleration.

It's got a lower than average clock speed.. but I think it should be able to run it. Just make sure your power supply has enough juice to run it!

I can't believe you are getting a 512 MB card for such a low price. I got my 128 MB card for about $50.

Just to make sure, is this the right cable?

Well is your monitor DVI or analog?

Also that cord would be used for a monitor that has a DVI cord that is too short (i.e. if it were a wall mount)

If your monitor has a DVI cord and it is not mounted on a wall (it's next to your CPU), it should connect directly to your graphics card.

If your monitor is analog, there are DVI to analog adapters that you can buy.
