It depends on the aircraft that you are running, if you are running like PMDG aircraft your CPU may be slowing you down but if you CPU isn't under full-load then you probably need a new GPU. If you are looking for a new card and you have some money I recommend you upgrade to the new ATI 5000 series GPUs or the 4900 series. There is also the 400 series from Nvidia (which aren't out yet) and the 200 series. You are probably best either getting the 200 series or 4900 series because anything higher you may need a bigger power supply.
