December 24, 201411 yr Though I'm wondering that it may also have to do with my Graphics card. I have an i74790k not overclocked yet. I'm sure once you overclock, or if you decide to, you'll see a performance increase with FSX. Most users are running 4.5Ghz stable, although there are those who've taken the leap to OC to 5.0Ghz with proper cooling. Can't wait to get my hands on my rig!
December 24, 201411 yr Author I'm sure once you overclock, or if you decide to, you'll see a performance increase with FSX. Most users are running 4.5Ghz stable, although there are those who've taken the leap to OC to 5.0Ghz with proper cooling. Can't wait to get my hands on my rig! I tried oc and it failed. I think it's because I didn't apply the thermal compound correctly on my CPU or my water cooling system wasn't installed correctly. Even right now at 100% load the computer shutoff. So that's one thing to keep in mind. I haven't yet bothered redoing everything though. Sagga Toure
December 24, 201411 yr Unless you're GPU limited, which is tough to do nowadays w/ FSX, you'll get an increase in frame rate roughly equivalent to the % increase in clock speed of your overclock. If you are in a very complex scenario getting a frame rate of 22 and go from 4.5 to 5.0 you will see something on the order of 10% increase, so up to a frame rate of 24.
