FSX bad perfomance with GTX 580 and I 5 2500K

Featured Replies

Hi all,Can you please help me with this FSX bad perfomance with GTX 580 and I 5 2500K OC 4.4 Ghz.I have now tried to use Bojote's tool to get better perfomance but no help.Also do some other FSX.cfg tweaks but still no miracle happen...It seems that the texture loading is slow and runways are not look so smooth.

Try downloading Nvidia Inspector and enabling Anisotropic Filtering. Set it to 16x.

What settings, resolution and addons are you running it with? What do you mean by bad, what frame rates are you getting on ground and air?

Although Bojote's tool is not bad, it was ok for older systems, not needed for newer really - no insult to *******, just saying.You could try running fresh fsx.cfg with:Bp=0Am=14HighmemfixNi:Override setting (look into pmdg forum in general for tabs recommended setting for 8xs) and add 2x sparse grid supersampling just below where you set 8xs.I'm on the ipad so hard to help fully...

As verybumpy has said, can you please quantify exactly what you mean by 'bad performance.' With respect, your statement is useless without some hard information.

As the others said, "bad" performance is up tro everyones oppinion. I do have the same CPU as you, running on 4,5 GHz and I too have some areas were the performance it not that great but you can live with it. I get, for example, about 35-50 FPS while enroute flying with NGX. But despite of that I can also only get 11 FPs while on a night approach with the same plane into O´Hare with mostly everything cranked up. But that´s ok and understandable in these situations and I don´t belive that my system could get it any better without major compromise on the grafic´s side. I don´t belive in miracles, even with that very good CPU.What I want to say that "bad" performance it up to everyone´s own oppinion.

Best regards, Steffen

It seems that the texture loading is slow.
Make sure you defrag your harddrive too. Best regards,Jim

So long as it's not an SSD! :(

Use FPS limiter. I have a lower specs that you but I am getting 20-25 at heavy add-on airports.

Are you serious you monster ghz machine users still getting lag and stuttering???I would think a machine like your could handle FSX on max settings.

That option is built into the new nVidia Inspector. All you have to do is select the FPS.

Oh sorry, I didn't know. I have a Radeon card.

Nope! FSX can bring it to it's knees. Depends where you are.

@ Word Not Allowed:Will the BP=0 tweak make use of both my video cards memory or just one of them (as I know FSX does not support SLI).

I don't think bp=0 changes the behaviour what gpu memory is used. It only bypasses internal fsx video buffer between cpu and gpu.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
