July 3, 201312 yr I've noticed recently that I get significantly better frames in the 747 than my 737, anyone know why? And how do your performances match up?

July 3, 201312 yr Commercial Member I've noticed recently that I get significantly better frames in the 747 than my 737, anyone know why? Normally it's the other way around because of the optimizations PMDG added (or I'm guessing "subtracted" is probably a better term) into the NGX. The exception is when you add fixes into the FIX page in the NGX. Make sure you're actually evaluating this scientifically instead of anecdotally. Kill weather, set the aircraft in the exact same location, at the exact same time of day, and you should see the NGX with higher frames. Passive observation during normal flying has too many different variables (scenery, weather load, different textures for various times of day, and so on). Kyle Rodgers
July 3, 201312 yr The NGX performs better than the 744. It might be different with a densely populated ND in the NGX, including terrain and VSI activated, but that would not be a fair comparison. What happened to AVSIM
July 3, 201312 yr Author I tried same place, aircraft in same state at at the same time and my 747 still gets about 4-5 frames better, I know I've heard in the past that the 737 is supposed to get better frames, so I'm just curious as to why this is, because if I could get it to be better then the 747 frame wise, I would be very happy Jacob Bettencourt KMODCore i7 2600k 4.4 GHz OC, 8 GB G.Skill Sniper DDR3 RAM Dual Channel, Biostar TP67XE,1 TB Seagate HDD, Geforce Evga GTX 460SSC 1GB DDR5 ZALMAN 92mm 2 Ball CPU Cooler
July 3, 201312 yr There are a number of performance/texture quality options for both the NGX and the 744. They are part of the equation, as well. What happened to AVSIM
July 3, 201312 yr The 747x has a higher top perfomance and consquently a lower bottom performance than the NGX which runs more fluid on average only. That would be because the 747 isn't as fully simulated as the NGX is.
July 4, 201312 yr Ngx performs heaps better than the 747 on mine I7-8700k,Corsair h1101 cooler ,Asus Strix Gaming Intel Z370 S11 motherboard, Corsair 32gb ramDD4,, gtx 1080ti Card, RM850 power supply Peter kelberg
July 4, 201312 yr I don't have the 747 for FSX - but if it helps, I get better frames in the NGX than LDS 763. As Kyle said, fixes in the NGX can kill your frames - but that isn't always the case. For me, I think its effect is greater with more programs running in the background. - Luke Pabari
July 5, 201312 yr Commercial Member 747 in FSX always brings my system to a screeching halt. I only fly my 747 in FS9. Kyle Weber (Private Pilot, ASEL; Flight Test Engineer)Check out my repaints and downloads, all right here on AVSIM
July 14, 201312 yr Commercial Member I actually concur with OP, I get better FPS in the 747 compared to the NGX. Alex Ridge Join Fswakevortex here! YOUTUBE and FACEBOOK
