in the fsx.cfg ive modified only 2 parameters: - highfemex=1- bufferpool=0
Not fixing your problem, but if you cut 'n' pasted, below is what these parameters should be:-[GRAPHICS]HIGHMEMFIX=1[bufferPools]UsePools=0

What do these commands in CFG file do?Are they deleted everytime I change something in the settings?

<br /><br /><br />hi. thx for reply me but i did that modifications already in my fsx.cfg weeks ago. my performance gain really good especially in scenery like london heatrow aerosoft (19-25fps with 45% woai traffic inside the pmdg md-11 cockpit). But the question is:Why my gou usage is only 15-20% when i play especially inside the virtual cockpit?

I have CPU i5-750, 8 gigs of ram, and a Radeon HD5970. I get some performance issues, so I checked my CPU usage and it was constantly at 30%.So I have the same question as the author of this thread. Why is my CPU not utilized fully?

Sounds like your affinity mask is 14. If you want to max out your CPU0 then set your LOD to 6.5.jja
Will my FPS decrease if I raise my LOD but not get my CPU to 100%?

thx for reply me. i play at 1440x900 resolution and im using 4x AA. so if i set 8x AA it doesnt hit the frame rate? ps. i use nhancer for the GPU
Hi,yes flying with 8xS AA is no problem. Our GTX285 have enough performance to handle that. You won
