Ok, after reading few a few threads have become to think that many people have micro stutters but don't notice them. So here is a poll to try and settle this topic.

Interesting votes we see. They really are the thing that turns fun into annoying if you experience them.

They can be reduced, not eliminated. They are not as bad as they used to be. Wings of Prey runs SO smooth. It's the way a sim should run.

I'm hoping Flight is coded as well as Wings of Prey.

I had them flying around metro NYC and other heavy areas like that. After I put my two FSX Vrap's on a 9750-4i that got completely rid of my microstutters.

We all do.

Now that is interesting. Most folks are on Nvidia for FSX. I wonder if the answer is AMD but thought I read some other AMD users that had stutters to?

I don't really think that the GPU itself will cause the stutters. It may contribute but it will not cause.

You did not understand what I meant when I said "After I put my two FSX Vrap's on a 9750-4i", the 9750-4i is not a ATI GPU, it is a 3ware SATA/SAS PCIe 2.0 controller. Using this put my FSX HD's on the PCIe bus and moved them off the Marvell Controller on the motherboard.

Duh, yup missed that one. thxs

I have a RevoDrive and I still experience a hick-up here and there. I think that most would concur that my HD is not only fast but effective. FSX is just poorly coded and broken. There was recently a tweak for d3d.dll CTDs, that gave you a message so that you can continue. It worked for some, I doubt for most. FSX continues to be a work in progress.

after all these years...

i seem to have solved mine by removing the two entries I had under bufferpools, yay.

I'm glad that you took my advice. Now STOP tweaking.

I voted "See them and don't care." I have a few from time to time but they don't bother me. I think almost everyone who runs FSX at high settings has them but they may be so small the user doesn't notice or doesn't care. For instance, along the same lines, I have screen tearing and run with vsync off. But it doesn't bother me and I like the increased fps. Yes, my fps are increased I don't care what anyone else says.
