Newer 3D video cards for the PC, such as the nVidia GeForce or ATI use dedicated hardware to perform steps (3) and (4). Upgrading an older PC with a newer video card, compatible with OpenGL 2.0, will dramatically improve FlightGear performance. Even putting a cheaper basic 3D video card onto an older PC will improve performance, because the per-pixel operations are handled by the video card, so the frame rate speeds up.
