PMDG T7 FPS Problem

Featured Replies

Hi all, as said i have some performance problems with the PMDG t7 and also the 737ngx. I use FSX and i tried to tweak the fsx.cfg it helped, but i dont really get the performance out of my computer, as you can exepct for my computer. Here are my Pc specs: 

 

Cpu: Intel I5 3570K @4,0ghz

 

Ram: 4x2 Gb corsair vengeance ddr3 cl9 1600mhz

 

Mobo: MSI Z77A-G45

 

Graphics Card: Sapphire amd radeon 7870XT w/Boost

 

Psu: XFX Pro Series 750w

 

As fsx addons i have these: 

 

Rex w/overdrive,

 

PMDG T7 and 737NGX,

 

some freeware airport sceneries,

 

EKBI Scansim scenery (My local Airport in Denmark),

 

UK2000 Egll and Egkk free version.

 

At for example Egll with uk2000 free with the t7 i only got about 10-15 fps

When i cruise i got 20-30 fps(limit 30fps) depending on scenery below me.

 

Okay i hope you will help me.

Hi Noah,

 

I have relatively the same specs, a bit more CPU power at 4.5ghz but running triple screen and get about the same FPS. With those FPS you should get smooth running.

 

My advice is;

Don't go chasing FPS as it's smoothness that counts.

 

Without knowing your settings it's hard to say what you can do to improve.

Thank you for your quick answer. Yeah i know it´s smoothness its all about but i dont get it that smooth more laggy, and thats not what i want when approaching a runway.

Okay sounds interresting that you have the same problem as me.

I´ll post my settings tommorow both fsx standard settings ingame and thr fsx.cfg file.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/aip66bez6mqth5r/fsx.cfg This is my new fsx.cfg file, i have changed the things like fsxgenius did and hope it will be better. I changed my  3d cloud resolution to 2048 insted of 4096 in rex. All other settings in rex is just the highest possible. I think thats it write if you want more information about my settings

I add Poolsize=0 under [bufferPools] make sure your water is at least on low 2x
