Graphics Curruption - What does this mean?

I have just reinstalled FSX and running it on a dedicated SSD.

 

This looks like the old highmemfix problem, I did alter a V sync setting in inspector while running FS, thats the only thing I can think of..

 

Thoughts?

I double checked them

 

when looking they were 79 [on a gtx480] fan was around 60 on auto. They dissappeared, so I will try and do a complete flight again

temps are in the mid 70's constant..

 

What I am noticing on this install, is that the textures take longer to load [greyed out] until they load properly. I am on a SSD with 12gb ram, shouldn't really have that problem right?

You definitely should not have texture load issues with an SSD and using the FSX max amount of RAM. I have 8Gb of ram and a 128Gb SSD and my texture loads are near instant. COuld you have gotten a bad SSD maybe?

70 degrees seems like a lot to me... I fly medium-haul flights and play other games while FSX is minimized and my temperatures range from 50-60 Celsius and my fan speed is on 35%.

 

My CPU, however....

i7-6700K @ 4.5 GHz, 16 GB DDR4-2400 MHz, GTX 1070 8GB

I had the same problem on my old PC, temps was ok. I can't help you to much becouse I have not found the cause, and I changed PC in the meantime. But I'm pretty sure that it has nothing to do with the temps, You should think about other possibilities

GPU temps can often be higher...

 

The fans are smaller, as are the coolers, even on the big cards... 70s is common for high loads...

 

GPU overheat can cause artefacts and stuff though...

No, that looks about right for healthy SSD. I know this sounds strange, but what does your external view look like when you have those weird artifacts in the cockpit? To me, your original post almost look like those are guy wires from another aircraft model. I'm wondering if you just have a corrupt FSX install maybe? Of course if they disappeared, and haven't returned, I wouldn't worry about it. FSX has done some very strange things to me before as well.

 

Have you opened a ticket with PMDG?

That doesn't look like the HIGHMEM issue at all - that looks like an actual artifacting video card. Overheat, unstable overclock, bad memory on the card etc.

I haven't got it since then, but I am getting slow texture loading [greyed out cockpit for a second etc]

Seen these on another thread some where, but the spikes were from the ground up unlike the ones here, and it was due to the graphic card not being able to cope with it. So wondering does it go away if you lower your settings since you havnt mentioned if you have lowered your settings at all yet?
