Issues with X-Plane free demo

Would installing a Nvidia or AMD video card have to be done by a computer technician, or is that something that can be downloaded/installed off the internet?

 

Installing a GPU involves installing a physical video card into your PC. It isn't difficult to do, but if you aren't comfortable, then taking your PC to a local shop to install it would be best.

So I was on Amazon reading some reviews for Flight Sim 10, and Flight Sim 10 Steam. One question was what's the difference? Answer was that one (Steam) is a download (no discs), whereas Flight Sim 10 has discs. Another answer was that Steam is cheaper, but on Amazon both were about the same price. Does that sound correct?

$16.24 right now at the Steam Store!

 

Keep in mind that what you see on the Amazon site for FSX Steam Edition-Boxed is nothing more that a card with code on it that's used on the Steam Store site.

?Google: "how to install a graphics card"

(google really knows a lot.:) )

 

But before you start:

--make sure that the pc really has no graphics card yet. Unplug the power cord from the wall, open the case and just look inside.

--before buying something walk through every step. Do a dry run.

--Before starting make sure you know all the specs of the pc. Cpu, Ram, etc. If the pc is really old and slow these games won't be much fun. Even with a new card.
