Bojote's Tweaking/Tuning Tool for FSX

[Jen 0]

One of the questions pertaining to the tweaking tool listed on the site below asks for the brand of my graphics card, but lists all nvidia cards. I'm using a Ati 5770 card and it wants me to give 'an equivalent nvidia counterpart' as an answer to the question. What would I enter for an equivalent nvidia counterpart to my Ati 5770 graphics card? Also it wants to know if I would like the vSync FIX applied? What exactly does this mean, and if I'm a computer illiterate, should I answer (Yes) or (No) to this question? On a final note, keeping in mind that I'm a computer illiterate, should I take the 'normal' as opposed to the 'conservative' approach to the optimization question?http://www.venetubo.com/fsx.htmlRegards,jack noulet

Jack,A 5770 is roughly equivalent to a GTX260 in terms of performance.The VSync fix is something that to me depends on whether you run windowed or full-screen mode. If you run full-screen then use it, but don't if you run windowed mode. The reason is that in windowed mode, Vsync can actually drop your framerate considerably. This won't happen in full-screen because FSX uses a form of triple buffering that prevents it.

Thanks for your reply Ryan. As for the last question: Do you have any advise as to taking the 'Normal' as opposed to the 'Conservative' approach to the optimization question while keeping in mind that I'm not very computer savvy?:( Regards,jack noulet
