Hi all,Let me begin with my PC spec:Intel i7 920 processor4GB ramATI 4870X2 graphicsGigabyte EX58-UDR3 mobo1kw PSU2 x Samsung T240 monitorsMatrox TH2GO500GB SATA driveSaitek Yoke and TQMS FSX (obviously)FTX North AmericaI'm sick to death of crappy frame rates, micro stutters, tweaking the fsx.cfg here and there, etc. etc. I won't bother going into any more detail but I'd pay someone to remote access into my system and play to their hearts content on configuring the system once and for all.Anyone up for the challenge?TIADaz

But before you do that, invest in a new harddrive and have nothing but FSX on that one dedicated drive. When you do, follow NickN

You could overclock your processor.

Not certain what you mean by losing one of my GPU's. I know that the 4870X2 is two 4870's. I'm not changing my card again!

I did what ping pong did and had good results but don't think for a min. your gonna go that route and get it done in 30 min. i paid him 80 bucks i think and was some thing like 8 to 10 hours mabye more to set it up ..He will want to know every thing about your rig and i mean every thing so get a pen and write every number you see on your components. He'll contact you through msn and you will have to book an appoint ment . I feel your pain about being fed up trust, me that's why i paid to get it done. And if your not to to good on computers get some one with you who is cause he make you go into places that you never existed . Louis

I also used FS-GS after reading a postive review on it here on Avsim. It took about 7 hours to do my set up, but overall I think it was the best money I have ever spent on FS. May partially explain why even on my older hardware I am still able to get great performance flying complex a/c into major hubs with a lot of AI and still get good performance, where I hear people with much better equipment complaining about lousy performance in the same situations.Plus FS-GS charges after the service, not before. They have an agreement that if you use their service and aren't satisfied you dont pay a penny.

Hellocontact Michael at FS-GS, talk to him, listen his suggestions about what hardware you should have, let him tweek your system. It will be the best investment you ever did regarding FSXGood luck.Abrupto
