Thanks to Didier and Martin for the recommendations.
In the end, my choices were quite limited as I had an AGP 8X rather than
PCI-E slot. I ended up buying an MSI GeForce 7600GS with 512MB of RAM for
£103 (~ 150 euros).
I've still to fine-tune performance, but I'm getting a solid 35fps around
KSFO with the c172p on the current OSG FG and high levels of AA and AS
filtering at 1280x1024. It isn't possible for me to do a direct comparison
with my now-dead ATI card, but that represents a decent improvement. I've
also noticed that the frame-rate is staying pretty constant, which is also
very good and probably due to OSG rather than plib. Thanks Mathias!
