P3D V4 + I7 7700k and lag

[cagrikartal 8]

Hello everyone,

I wanted to upgrade a few hardwares on my pc, i started with the cpu, from i5 16gb ddr3 to i7 7700k  and 16gb ddr4  so  i am currently runing on i7 7700k + gt 740 4gb +16gb ddr4 ram on win 10.  altough no metter what i try in my settings, i can get to have a smooth flight. no more than 10 fps. is there Something im missing ? 

 

Thank you in advance

Is the performance issue P3D specific or are you seeing issues with other applications as well?  Did you reinstall OS and P3D after the upgrade?

It's the gt740 your running. You've been around for awhile so how do you not know this?

maybe but im going slowly , first cpu, mother bord and ram than comes the gpu. a decent gtx is around 500€- +1000€ around here in France.  beside i tought the flight sims are more cpu consumer than the gpu  and a gt 740 with 4gb oc sounded ok for now.

I needed 2x 1070 superclocked gpus in SLI for good performance on an 7700 @4.6

Blimey!!!

 

I fly spanning the sim over 3 x 26" screens and 1 x 24" for moving maps etc etc and I only use 1 x GTX1070 and it flies very smoothly indeed with many sliders cranked well over to the right

Sure it is your GT740 !  Your graphic card is very weak vs your CPU. P3Dv4 requires a better gpu with more video ram on it.

Correct  new video card and a clean fresh installation slow and steady wins the race

Your gpu surely is the bottleneck here.

Till the moment you are able to upgrade fly with low settings. The moment you have a 1080 Ti in your system you will be very surprised ....

The CG is the problem as others have mentioned.  The parts in your computer have to be somewhat homogenous. If you run a high end cpu with a low end graphic card, the card is going to drag the cpu down. Its like putting a ferrari engine in a smart. Its going to work sort of well in a straight line but comes a corner  and you'll be kissing trees in no time. 

I'm suggesting you update your graphic card next, the ram can wait  and  will have much less impact on the overall performance.
