Hello,

 

I just splashed out on some hardware. Will it run FSX smoothly with max settings PMDG etc?

You have to be very clear on what you mean by 'max settings'.  If it's absolute max for all sliders, and highest video driver settings, that's one thing.  I set EVERY single slider fully right, including traffic of all kinds, cloud draw distance and the highest driver settings using inspector.  At KSEA at dawn in PNW ORBX scenery in the NGX in heavy weather, LOD 6.5:  13 fps at 4.4Ghz.  No one in their right minds would run the settings where I had them.  When I set to my normal settings, which is traffic at around 10-20%, autogen at very dense, clouds to 80m, LOD 6.5 I'm in the low 20's at KSEA, and it's smooth.  Usually I'm seeing 30 fps locked in all of my normal areas I fly.

Hello Guys,

 

Thank you for the comments. When you say "overclock" do you mean the video card or processor? If the processor how do i do it?

 

Thank you again

I mean the processor overclocking a gpu isnt needed. Overclocking is done via bios I'm not sure which mobo you have and overclocking differs with each one. If I were you I do.a google search on how to overclock with your mobo
