pphibbs Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Hi Guys, I posted a thread in the Tips section of the forum a while back, complaining about the dismal performance with my computer and FTX airports. Particularly Melbourne and Brisbane. Thread: http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/30701-disappointed-with-computer-performance-lately-ftx-ybbn/ I posted this shot, which was based on the sliders being very low as suggested for low end computers and I have a high spec computer. Here's the same aircraft flying circuits today after the following changes: + replaced my two 285 GTX cards in SLI (4gb RAM) for a single 580 GTX with 3gb RAM + overclocked my I7 950 3ghz to 4ghz and added water cooling + installed a product called Xtreem FSX PC and had it configure FSX to improve performance Here is the same shot again along with some other shots in the circuit ... note the framerate increase. In all cases the aircraft is very flyable with no stutters. All the sliders are also up very high. I'm a much happier simmer these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontworry Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 It's ridiculous how much work is needed just to get FSX running smoothly . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
