Pictures of our FS9/FSX/XP-10 Computers and Cockpits

[Ben Cap 89]

This is a hot topic here in the hardware forums Rodney, and one where almost everybody agrees. FSX is CPU bound, but not in a way that will take advantage of an SR-2 system.You are adding cores that FSX won't use, at the expense of raw speed, that FSX loves. So I'm afraid you'll be extremely disappointed.FSX doesn't benefit from more than 3 cores, it's much better to have a fast quad core and overclock itSame goes for multi-GPU as Ben explained

Theoretically, FSX can "use" the extra cores with the setting of an affinity mask withing FSX.CFG. Whether the FPS gain is worth the extra $$ is debatable. Edited January 25, 2012 by benorg

OK Alexey that last picture looks incredible!

Alexey, the last pic IS an edit, right? Tell me it is...

Look at the light from the landing and taxi light. Plus the depth of field effect only achievable by editing software ( that's an easy edit, too). Edited January 27, 2012 by ZachLW

A bit of photoshop. Mostly just a blur on distant scenery.

That last one is really amazing. Is that LGAV?

I got pretty much the exact same specs, just 4gb less RAM and I cant seem to get that smoothly Alexey.

Yes. Athens :hi:

You mean smoothly by anti-aliasing? It's not hard with good inspector settings. Edited January 27, 2012 by FCOM

Mmm, I know some effects were/are possible through ENB, including blur. I just thought it might be something from there... but I thought it was an edit.

ENB is too FPS expensive) And I didn't like it with blur, because sometimes when you panning in VC, the gauges you need with be blured. It's not intellegent enough.

I used to be able to come here and actually see "Pictures of Our Computers". Seems to me, a lot of what's been going on here lately, would be better suited in some of the other threads. How about it guys?!
