All,

 

I've freshly reinstalled FSX, used Word Not Allowed's tweaks, OO Defragged my FSX drive as per NN's guide. I've set my fps to 30 from within FSX which I'm able to achieve - mostly using windowed mode. When I switch to fullscreen, my frames reduce to 15-18. Not a problem in itself, except its noticeable. I've not had this problem before with previous installations. I was always able to keep 30fps.

 

 

I'm wondering whether there is something in Nvidia Inspector that could make the difference.

 

I'm running a 4Ghz 950 i7 with 4GB RAM and have a 460 GTX Nvidia card with the latest driver.

 

Any thoughts?

 

thanks

eric

It may well depend on the AA settings you have chosen. Sometimes, only full screen applies the more aggressive AA settings and can take a toll on FPS.

 

Are you using nHancer or nvidia Inspector? The latter provides support for 1/2 refresh rate vsynch which helps!

Hi Bert,

 

I am using Nvidia Inspector and in the AA setting........ 8xSQ [Combined: 2x2 SS + 2x MS]...

Doen't Word Not Allowed's tweak recommend NI setting of 8xS and 2X SGSS?

OK - I am using the same setting, also on a GTX460, and do not have this problem.

 

Are you using the 1/2 refresh vsynch option?

Bert, thanks!

 

It wasn't set at 1/2 refresh and has increased my frames by 5-10

 

Many thanks

Happy to hear!
