November 29, 201510 yr I run FSX SE and up to a couple of days ago, I was getting very smooth performance with addons such as the PMDG 777 with addon scenery. All of a sudden, I got an out of memory message while using the 777 with flytampa Toronto. A few hours after taking off from Boston on another occasion, white dots appeared all over my screen. I was forced to turn off my PC and lose my flight. Same thing happened again today. I downloaded MSI afterburner and turned fan speed to max. There is still lag while flying especially on the ground. Here are my specs: -I7 4790K (4ghz and 4.4 turbo) -Zotac GTX750Ti 2GB -8GB RAM -1TB HDD
November 30, 201510 yr The white dots are often an indication of a video card that is too hot. As for the lag, are you using a lot of add-on airports, scenery, and AI air traffic. Road AI traffic will also use up too much of the CPU as will high autogen settings. My computer: ABS Gladiator Gaming PC featuring an Intel 10700F CPU, EVGA CLC-240 AIO cooler (dead fans replaced with Noctua fans), Asus Tuf Gaming B460M Plus motherboard, 16GB DDR4-3000 RAM, 1 TB NVMe SSD, EVGA RTX3070 FTW3 video card, dead EVGA 750 watt power supply replaced with Antec 900 watt PSU.
December 1, 201510 yr Card could be too hot, and lag could be because the GPU is overheating and throttling back. Find out for sure by monitoring temp while under load.
