Okay the time has come my old ATI 1650 card is in need of replacement and was wondering what to replace it wiht as this is the week point on my PC. I am partial to the ATI cards as I prefer the ATI chipset over the NVidia chipset because my PC is an AMD and I have found that ATI works better with AMD and NVidia works better with Intel. The PC that it is going into is a pure games PC Wings over Everywhere FSX That sort of thing. Was wondering what anyone else is running on their rigs? Thanks in Advance.

As to the DASS system from what I saw when I was looking the jet over and the brochures (aka It works honest but we wont say for definite) provided by BAE the system works with a 90% accuracy... but its a Missile Approach Warner so it advises on all missiles not just heat but radar and laser guided kit. More data on the following link :- http://typhoon.starstreak.net/Eurofighter/defences.html As to the shootdown of the F-117 it was a mix between an SA-3 that had been seriously worked over and a Mig-29 no-one is really sure... outside of the Stealth guys... also didn't help that they used the same ingress egress routes every night. This data is open source. Anyway thats me 2 pence worth... -

Okay this might have been answered before and I apologise in advance if so. But I am looking at starting to do some 3d modelling etc and I have received a copy Truespace 3d and was wondering if this was any good for 3d Modelling for the Project 1 series... If not can someone advise on what is the best software to use... as in ease of use etc. Thanks in advance..
