August 6, 201114 yr Author could we agree that upgrading to 4gb ram could fix some of the memory crashes and improve lag slightly?cant upgrade the to the full shebang, only have $400 Nick Watson Lover of the Boeing 737-800NG "If it's not Boeing, I'm not going"
August 6, 201114 yr could we agree that upgrading to 4gb ram could fix some of the memory crashes and improve lag slightly? cant upgrade the to the full shebang, only have $400 I have 16GB of ram and still only maybe 20 FPS Derek Lane Passenger Division Vice-President AirHaul Airline Alliance
August 6, 201114 yr I have 16GB of ram and still only maybe 20 FPS That is def a waste of money.Unless you use that RAM for photoshop After Effects?I dont think FSX really needs all of that lol.
August 6, 201114 yr Author Actually, i do use after effects alotbut fsx may not need alot but at least it may stop me crashing from out of memory errors AND 4gb is recommended for the ngx on PMDG's website Nick Watson Lover of the Boeing 737-800NG "If it's not Boeing, I'm not going"
August 6, 201114 yr That is def a waste of money.Unless you use that RAM for photoshop After Effects?I dont think FSX really needs all of that lol. Meh computer came with it and alsoIntel® Core™ i7-860,2.80GHz w TurboBoost up to 3.46GHz & 8MB L3 Cache1.5TB HDD 16GB RAM ATI 5770 1GB and im still only maybe 20 FPS, with other aircraft at any airport payware or original FSX im lucky to get 30 FPSIts beyond me, i think i should be getting more anyways Derek Lane Passenger Division Vice-President AirHaul Airline Alliance
August 6, 201114 yr could we agree that upgrading to 4gb ram could fix some of the memory crashes and improve lag slightly? cant upgrade the to the full shebang, only have $400 you want to fix memory crashes, get 6 gbs or better. I had 6 and was ok fo r a while but then I got memory crashes back in January. Im now at 12 gbs and I never ever get a memory crash. I just cant get it to install correctly because everytime it gets to the Direct X install part it fails and states something about Cryptograph issues. What the heck is that. Ive tried over and over and my 70.00 is down the drain. Marc
August 6, 201114 yr Actually, i do use after effects alot but fsx may not need alot but at least it may stop me crashing from out of memory errors AND 4gb is recommended for the ngx on PMDG's website Yup, I'm on 4GB of Ram, I can't complain about my FPS, I get about 25(Locked at at 30) at KMIA4GB Processor2.7Ghz CPUnVidia 9500GTI have one of the lowest end computers on the forums.BUT THAT IS ABOUT TO CHANGE, when I RELEASE THE KRAKEN. Comparable to my J41.
August 6, 201114 yr Nick, Have you read the intro documentation that came with the NGX? There is a section in there that covers performance and getting the most out of the NGX. Have a read and see if you can improve things on your end. We strongly suggest that EVERYBODY and I mean EVERYBODY read the Introduction documentation before they fly the NGX, its a must. I fly the J41 at about 25 FPS, and I'm getting massive stutters here. I don't use the external limiter, but have fixed FPS in the settings. Cheers,Which is why you should post it on the website as was stated would happen. Doug Orvis PP-ASEL-IA (USA), Based at KHEF Picture courtesy of Kyle Rodgers
August 6, 201114 yr Author off topic question, anyone know how to start the ngx with the engines running?, cant seem to get them up and i cant find a panel state for them up Nick Watson Lover of the Boeing 737-800NG "If it's not Boeing, I'm not going"

August 6, 201114 yr Author page pool virtual ram? OOM's have nothing to do with the amount of physical RAM guyspage pool virtual ram? Nick Watson Lover of the Boeing 737-800NG "If it's not Boeing, I'm not going"
August 6, 201114 yr page pool virtual ram? page pool virtual ram? Yes, it's when it runs out of virtual memory that you get an OOM error. When you run out of RAM performance is compromised since it will start swapping to/from disk, but if the page file is big enough, it won't crash
August 6, 201114 yr could we agree that upgrading to 4gb ram could fix some of the memory crashes and improve lag slightly? cant upgrade the to the full shebang, only have $400 Im telling you that if you upgrade the ram to 8 gbs you wont have that problem anymore. i did it and not a problem since. I did this because my Overclocking master told me to and he was right.

I did this because my Overclocking master told me to and he was right.well i have only 2 slots in my MO, is it possible to get 2x4gb sticks, im doubting it Nick Watson Lover of the Boeing 737-800NG "If it's not Boeing, I'm not going"
