The 256MB ATI Radeon X1300 Pro seems to be a good card. Could it play FSX on high settings in a demanding environment smoothly? Also, does anyone have this card who plays FSX. Advice and feedback GREATLY appreciated.

No, it's looks like a pretty mediocre card.

I have this card and its ok with the setting at medium high, anymore than that and you get very slow play and blue screens.

I'm gonna wait for MS to release a patche and see if it eases the load on the card, if not I will have to think about upgrading.

Do you think I'd be ok with your card if I were to have 2GB or Ram?
