You Hackwell guys need to go back to theses Jurassic Ivy Bridge CPU's. Just kiddin. :P

I see the same micro stuttering with a 3770K setup as I do with the two 4770K setups I run, makes no difference.

Here's my little experience so far -

 

I've been testing P3D for the last hour.  Looking at how quick my Nvidia card renders photoreal scenery.  Was testing the same scenery (MSEv2 - Idaho), on a 3TB 7200 SATA drive, a 600GB Velocirapter and a 512GB SSD.  Switching between all three in flight at 13,000ft, 250 knots, I encountered the smoothest experience of stutter free flying in my twelve years of simming.  This is using a GeForce 670 2GB card on a 27" 1080p display.  Framerates were hovering at 60 (set at Unlimited), sliders around 2/3.

 

Refreshing/sharpening of scenery was noticable among all three drives but is that more of a radius issue or the card trying to keep up?  Time may tell. But all three handled so well I feel I do not need to stock up on SSD's for photoreal. Yea!

 

Now I did notice some micro stuttering when I expanded across my three 27" displays.   It was pretty micro but I could detect it.  It  was still completely enjoyable to fly with... that is it did not break my immersion.  And I was getting 40's for FPS.  Never had that good of frames across three before.  My gut is telling my I am over stressing the card with just 2GB of RAM on board.   And when I switched back to one display (mind you all in real time - no restarting P3D), back to "baby's but" smooth. 

 

So for me it's a keeper.  The only question is do I go for a 4GB (guess that would be a 770?), or go for the 6GB Titan. 

 

Simming is good...  :P

Bummer! I just found stutters if I limited my frames. If I move to unlimited it is smooth as glass.

You'll have to define smooth as glass, lol.

 

Yes the stuttering does see to be more tolerable with the frame rate set to unlimited but it's not as fluid as the other sims/games I run with v-sync enabled. Just look at the extreme left and right side of your display as you pan around in Prepar3D v2.1, the micro stutter are there.

770 would likely run out of gas before it could make use of all 4GB.

 

Not too mention, a 770 is really just a 680, if you're gonna upgrade, surely you'd want to aim higher than that.

I'm running a EVGA SC Titan in one setup and a ASUS R9 290X DirectCU II in another, Prepar3D v2.1 micro stutters with both setups.
