March 25, 201412 yr New pc help Hi simmers! I got my new pc build yest and installed fsx with 737 ngx pmdg! My comp specs are below plus monitor! My question is when i load up the 737 ngx the graphics are a bit jaggy looking in the cockpit and not sharp like the videos you see in youtube? Has anyone had this problem when they first started out? I have a basic knowledge of computers infact pretty low. Can anyone help me tweak fsx for my 737 thanks alot What would you guys recommend HDMI OR VDI for my monitor below?

March 25, 201412 yr IIRC, the NGX features a performance manager where you can make sure that cockpit texture quality is set to 'high'. There's also a high-resolution VC checkbox in the FSX/aircraft settings. Hope these help. What happened to AVSIM
March 25, 201412 yr Author Hi thanks for the reply! What is IIRC? I'll try it again later once i'm home. Would you recommend hd over the vdi for my monitor? Vernon Howells
March 25, 201412 yr IIRC= If I Remember Correctly. HDMI should yield better results. I forgot to mention your hardware/graphics settings in FSX: You should also check your anti-aliasing settings (both in FSX and in your GPU driver). There are AVSIM configuration guides available in the forum here (see the "quicklinks" at the upper right-hand side of the page). What happened to AVSIM
March 25, 201412 yr Author Ok i'll check all this later today! And also where do i get this performance manager about and what does it do? Vernon Howells
March 25, 201412 yr The perf. manager is automatically installed alongside the NGX. You should be able to reach it from your Windows start menu (PMDG => NGX). It allows you to configure cockpit textures, display refresh rates and stuff. (IIRC ...) Details can be found in the introduction manual for the NGX. What happened to AVSIM
March 25, 201412 yr FSX settings and options are stored in the fsx.cfg. Some can be controlled via the FSX options screens, others need to be altered by opening the cfg file and changing values manually. The only entry you really have to bother with is to make sure that HIGHMEMFIX=1 exists in the [GRAPHICS] section. If not, enter it manually via Notepad, for example. What happened to AVSIM
March 25, 201412 yr Top marks to you, Oliver, for being so patient and so helpful to this Newbie. Rick Almeida

My question is when i load up the 737 ngx the graphics are a bit jaggy looking in the cockpit and not sharp like the videos you see in youtube? Has anyone had this problem when they first started out? You might want to read the PMDG 737NGX Introduction and try Tutorials 1 and 2. These documents can be accessed by Clicking Start>All Programs>PMDG Simulations>PMDG 737NGX. These documents contain a wealth of information concerning FSX and 737NGX setup. You should read them.
