am I expecting to much??

I have a Dell PC with dual Core AMD chip and Radeon ATI 1300 graphics. I run FS 9 fully maxed and get super high frame rates a fluid graphics. I run FSX not maxed, but quite high settings and that's fine too..... but in FS 9, at "certain angles" I get very poor anti aliasing with saw toothing to leading edges etc, and "flickering" especial on runway centre lines and fences.

Interestingly, I get none of this in FS X and the graphics are perfect, trouble is I don’t have all my add-ons in FS X or my problem would be an easy fix.

I have tried just about every combination of anti aliasing settings... and just when I think I have cracked it, another aeroplane on a another day and the old jagged edges are back!

Any suggestions as to what settings (Radeon catalyst or FS 9) I should try?

Failing that, should I swap to NVIDIA GT? And which one (for around £100)?

Advice appreciated!

Hi Colin,

the 1300 is a pretty basic card, I had one in my last laptop, pretty good for a laptop, but very average in PC, an upgrade would probably be a good idea. ;-)
