Just curious what type of system everyone has and what they put they're sliders on to achieve best flying with the PMDG? I am getting 512 more RDRAMM tomorrow to add to my 256 in there now....and am using a ATI 9600 Pro 256 mb video card. I also have a 2.4 pentium processor. Just curious what everyone else uses and how they feel about it. As of now, i have most sliders set on normal, except for texture complexity. I got 14-25 fps on a flight from PHX-SAN-SFO....but then flew today from ORD-CYUL and barely got in the teens, making a difficult landing. Let's hear it!!also...when installing new memory, do all i do is just put it in? or are there settings i need to tweak and stuff?Brad Z.

Brad: On the tutorial flight, I was getting mostly all in the mid 20s. I'm not sure about final approach because I haven't made it that far yet! All of my sliders are far right except: 1) MipMapping at 4, and, 2) AI Traffic at 10%. Shadows (ground objects and plane) are off. AA and AF are 6/16 respecively through my desktop's ATI control panel. I'll put my system specs on the bottom of this post.Re: your new memory...congratulations, I think you'll like the difference. What you would do is put the new chip (be care about static electricity, please) right next to the existing one. I'm unclear though if you get 2 256mb chips or one 512? If it was me, and I don't think this is absolutely necessary, IF you got one 512mb chip, take out the 256 chip and replace it with the 512 and then put the 256 next to it. I don't think it really matters which one is first, but I would probably put the larger one first. Then, just boot up your system and watch when the BIOS counts your memory to ensure that it sees it. If you don't get this display and Windows boots normally, just go to the System control panel and look on the general tab to see how much memory the system thinks you have. There are some reasons if may not work if the new chip(s) aren't well matched with your existing one. The best is to have all memory chips from the same venor, same model, same size, same specs. Subtle differences in esoteric stuff like differences in CAS Latency can cause them not to work. Good luck though. And don't worry, there's nothing special you should need to do...95% chance anyway!Sam Mantel, IIIKEWRP4 3.2Ghz, 800FSB, 875P chipset1Ghz DDR400 RAM (512Mb x 2)ATI Radeon 9800Pro 256Mb, 3.8 Catalyst driversSoundblaster Audigy2Mistubishi 21" DiamondPro CRTWindows XP-Pro SP1MS FF2 JoystickFS9Addons: PMDG 737NG, CS727, RealAir C172, FSGenesis 38m USA mesh & Landclass, FSUIPC 3.11 Registered, MegaScenery New York (soon, I hope!)
