Great Computer not Getting Great Performance

Featured Replies

Hi All,

I don't know if i am posting this in the right place but here goes. I have a very high end computer, but i feel that i am not getting the performance everyone else is getting. Here are my specs:

 

Intel i7 2600k @ 4.6GHz

8GB of RAM

GTX570 Superclocked 1280MB

2.5 TB of HD

REX,UTX,GEX

 

I feel like all the guys on youtube with similar and even exactly the specs are getting alot better frame rates than I am. Sometimes coming into Boston in the Level-D 767 at night with the UTX night lighting settings turned down i am getting under 15 FPS.

 

Can anyone help??

 

Thanks!!

I suggest you follow Word Not Allowed's set-up guide (pinned to the top of the MS FSX Forum). For your system specs, I believe that will give you the best results. Remember to start with a "clean" fsx.cfg file. If you have made a lot of changes to the config, you can delete it and restart FSX so it creates a new one...then start from there. Word Not Allowed's guide is tied to Nvidia inspector settings, so you'll want to get that if you don't have it already. He explains what his tweaks are and what they do, so it is a good read. It has made a big difference for me and I am very happy with my FSX experience now.
