Frame Rates compared to the -400X?

[1kris007 0]

I m going to purchase the NGX this weekend, and I was just wondering if someone that also owns the 747-400X could comment on how the frame rates compare between the two products? Just trying o figure out what to expect. With the -400X I get about 25-60 frames per second depending on the airport, and 10 frames at worst, so I would be delighted if the 737NGX performed even better!

The NGX performs better no doubt.

SooIn 2dpanel and exterior it has better Frames.But it feels slower inVCNontheless, Dream!BTW the NGX needs more Memory so its highly recommended to have 64Bit ;)Jan Reineke

Just completed a flight from East Midlands to Glasgow, REX2 Overdrive, RC4 etc, frames are definitely better than the nearest competitor (ahem) and no mouse issues for me either. Early days yet I expect but so far extremely pleased. I have 30fps capped with an external limiter, ultra high settings for the most part, but no significant airport add-ons. Edit: Whoops! Yes, on my system waaay smoother than the 747-400.

Slower in general.Comparison to 747-400X:747-400X:2D: 40 VC: 32NGX:2D: 36 VC: 27 Apples to apples. And yes, there is a mouse issue, the very much same as in the competitor. Last test shown: full screen, cursor shown 23fps, cursor hidden 27fps. That's about the same difference as in the competitor. Around 20% loss.

Generally better I'd say. Exterior much smoother, 2D a LOT nicer, VC is great if you don't move the view too much, if you're moving about expect to have it break up a little.

Just done a few touch and goes at KBFI fresh out the paint shop and I must say I'm extremely impressed with this thing ... The frames are better than the 747x ... Well they are on my system which is coming on 4 yrs old.This addon is a must for the serious sim nut !

For me it's worse in FPS compared to 400X about 25-30 % less FPS and yes I got mouse Lag.

I made the mistake of buying this addon using 32-bit. 5-8 fps on fairly low settings in the middle of nowhere (Southern Illinois) at FL330. ----->DO NOT BUY IF YOU HAVE AN OLDISH SYSTEM USING 32-BIT<----------

Whats OLDish?

But the -400X is running well at 28 FPS at JFK with high settings (which makes no sense to me).

You can't say that based on your observation o_O

Oldish as in Core 2 Duo 2.33 Ghz, which is what I have.
