256GB SSD for FSX
Cuddly1956 replied to Flight simmer's topic in System Hardware: PC | MOBO | RAM | CPU | HDD | SSD | PSU etc
If you use extra scenery, etc then go for 256Gb SSD else you wont have the space to add an awful lot. As an aside loading FSX from a hard drive it seems to stick at around 6% for a while before moving on, with an SSD this wait is almost non existent. Happy Flying. -
Also on youtube is the voice behind some of the callouts

Fscene is ok if you just want a basic improvement but GEX is much better.... of course, a lot more expensive too. Up to you really.
-
Just my thoughts - It's not really fair comparing the latest Aerowinx product with a PMDG plane released quite a lot of years ago (2005 perhaps).

Anyone still flying the 747? You still like it?
Cuddly1956 replied to pampiermole's topic in PMDG 747-8
I really like all the PMDG planes but the 747 still holds pride of place in my heart so still fly it. -
Bought a new PC, questions about overclocking
Cuddly1956 replied to Robinnn's topic in PMDG General Forum
Just some advice - run it at standard for about a week, that will let all the components settle in. After that overclock keeping it stable. -
SP1c Release Planned for this weekend!

Even better news than the release of MS Flight there Robert, I will be looking forward to this a LOT more for one.All seems to be coming together. -
I'd suggest a ssd just for fsx - there is no pause at all on loading with one... just bear in mind the cost and your patience.As for cooling I went for the H70 cooler rather than air as I'm of the opinion of keeping the weight off the motherboard is beneficial - I'm not saying better.2500k should be well up to the job on the cpu side, but waiting for the next gen couldn't hurt if in no hurry.

Secret Project #1: This one is a classic!
Cuddly1956 replied to rsrandazzo's topic in PMDG General Forum
Just love it pure and simple flight in a tin. -
Utopia in the AVsim library does a good job of 737 variants derates as well as topcat only covers part so far.

I don't know if it has been addressed yet but with ATI cards if the mouse cursor was outside the fsx window the framerate would increase a lot. Don't believe it makes a difference with Nvidia cards.I usually run in a window anyway as I have programs on another monitor but yes there is an apparent improvement in fullscreen but if you keep changing views, etc it will crash eventually due to a fsx bug.Just speculation here as I have never had an issue with this so please take as opinion, not hard fact.

Agree with above as on the ITVV 747 dvd you clearly hear them say "do not overtake 'smaller plane' on the right" when doing a parallel landing. I assume that for aircraft of similar weights it wouldn't be too much of an issue for one to be a little in front of the other as they'd have similar wake profiles.Looks impressive though.

Really silly repaint needed
