I have received some good feedback on this forum concerning my search for a new CPU. However, I only fly the Carenado sr22, but I get stutters...I get smooth flying when using default planes.

 

 

Can anyone fly the Carenado Sr22 / TBM 850 / Phenom 100 stutter free?

 

If so, what is your CPU and GPU hardware?

Yeah but I turn down my other settings to make flying better.

 

2500k @4 ghz gtx 970

Thanks...I have the exact same cpu / gpu. I just increased my cpu to 4 ghz. Lowered settings make no difference for me,

The one thing I've found is to drop textures to 1m.  Basically I think my cpu just can't keep up with the loading.  It seems different than FSX...

 

So after that I still have lower-ish fps but it's pretty smooth.  I don't lock fps in p3d and run windowed mode.

Carenado glass cockpits seem usable but slow. I'm using a ninja PC ([email protected] overclock on water, dedicated P3D machine). So yeah, quite flyable but I don't - I use the steam gauge versions as I want to use the CPU horsepower elsewhere.

 

Now the Carenado 337 - that's a good example fo framerate friendly aircraft. Love it!

 

Btw, when I want glass I just add the G1000 ipad app by simionic. Works well with everything and no noticable framerate hit at all.
