Hey guys...
I am looking for an optimum graphics card to run fsx at decent settings, PMDGs as well...at a price max 100$. Can u pls suggest some good ones? Oh, and single monitor ones would suffice.
Thanks in advance!!

I had to upgrade in order to run XPlane-10 and my choice was NVidia GeForce550 Ti. I guess its price is around $130 in the US. I'm happy with it.
Here's an article from Tom's Hardware site:

Good luck
