P3D2.5 tweaks for E3 1230v3 users?

Featured Replies

Greetings from China:)

I've been looking around the forum for p3d cfg tweaks, but most tweaks done for i7 4790k.

 

Could anyone give some advice on tweaking based on this specific CPU E3 1230?

 

My current tweaks including ammask84, bufferpool, optimise1 and nothing else, my gig is an ITX running b85n board+e3+msi gtx970+16g, your help is much appreciated!

 

cheers, LINGFENG

my p3d setting is quite realistic, some high some ultra, some dense some normal.

 

Addons: res4+softclouds with not very high res setup, orbx global vector lc n EU, asn, pmdg777, uk2000 egll extreme.

 

with the tweaks i mentioned above, i only get poor 16 fraps average inside cokpit down egll, outside scores ave 25 ahhh, only upto fl200 then i can see 30 to 50, really need some help here.

 

thanks a lot, LINGFENG

P3D v2.5 should NOT be tweaked according to LM!!! So far recommended tweaks from "experts" only make things worse.

no one using e3 1230?

 

Why would anyone be using a Sandybridge Xeon processor? They're meant for small office mail servers at most. Edit: That specific CPU.

Wrong. Optimized Parts=1. Affinitymask for freeing cores not using cores. 

 

Have you read the learning center documentation provided by LM with P3D?

Yes I have read the documentaion provided by LM, but v2,5 is optimized without the suggestions, they were for v2.4.

Optimized Parts is only for users of PMDG products (737/777).

 

Affmask is only for PC:s with 2 cores.

thanks for pionting this out, a lot of guys using this server cpu for gaming in china right now, i was be misdirected by their e3 myth. they say this cpu has 4 cores 8 threads, same performance as i5 but a cheaper price. i believed it and turnouts very struggling with xplane fsx and p3d.

yesterday i finally decided to sell E3 and upgrade to i7 4790k, will install it today, expect some improvements hopefully.
