Sounds good! I ordered myself a 7950 GT as replacement for my GTX 260 two days ago. Of course i'll keep the GTX, but when it comes to playing EE1, i'll exchange the GTX for the 7950 GT!

EDIT: DO you run the newest version 1.11.0 ?

Is this the fastest card that will run EE? I'm thinking about this, a 1950, or an 800xt. I know my 800xt (before it fried) was faster than the 7800GS that I had for a day, but not sure about this newer Nvidia you're talking about. Right now I've just got a 3850 and 9250, the latter being pretty slow.

The term "necroposting" was invented by a person with no social memory beyond a year. People with a similar hangup are those o.k. with the internet being transient vapor.

@ mickey7: Thank you! Your setup sounds good. As soon as i've tried out EE 1.11, i'll give a feedback.

I still have not flown the Hind!! frown frown frown Looking forward to finally see arneh's awesome work!!

@ ukSleek: According to EECHCentral, the 8 series should also work, but in case i understood it right, only with driver version up to 169.25 (?)

Shack!! Now that my new graphics card has arrived, i already tried EE1. Most important is that you first uninstall the old graphics driver, because if you do not, there might be the same problems as with new ATi/Nvidia cards (nothing visible but blue sky...)

It runs perfectly even with the newest driver version. Could be so much fun, if not my Freetrack made problems...
