January 15, 20188 yr Hi All I have just formatted my lap top up to windows 10 64 bit. So I have reinstalled prepar3d v4 with ORBX scenery addons. My system is a Toshiba Qosmio X770 CPU intel i7-2630QM 2.0 GHz Ram 8.0 Gig Graphics Nvidia GeForce GTX 560M I have messed about with graphic options, followed suggestions from youtube clips, tried default settings. However the best I can get in frame rate is between 5-10 frames/sec Is this the best this machine can do, or is there something, or some settings that are seriously wrong. Regards Paul

Regards Paul Hi Paul, I am afraid the hardware is way too low for P3DV4, try putting all display settings to minimum and see how much you can get. Check Lockheed Martin recommended system hardware.

January 15, 20188 yr Other playing with the settings, there's really not much you can do Paul. As above, there just isn't enough CPU/GPU available to get the job done properly..........Doug Intel 10700K @ 5.1Ghz, Asus Hero Maximus motherboard, Noctua NH-U12A cooler, Corsair Vengeance Pro 32GB 3200 MHz RAM, RTX 2060 Super GPU, Cooler Master HAF 932 Tower, Thermaltake 1000W Toughpower PSU, Windows 10 Professional 64-Bit, 100TB of disk storage.

January 15, 20188 yr As the other above said. As some additional info, I actually ran FSX on that exact machine for a number of years and I can tell you that no matter what you do, you will never be happy. The machine will tend to overheat as well which means it'll run fine for a few minutes on medium settings and then throttle to cool itself, causing intermittant but drastic framerate drops. If you have the possiblility, save yourself from frustration and tweaking hell and get new hardware Andre
January 15, 20188 yr Other than turning down settings, I would suggest to turn off all shadows. That has helped increase my FPS significantly. Also, no DL.
January 15, 20188 yr In my case I disable all shadows, and that gives me good performance in an old system ( i5 2500 + gtx 960 4 GB )... In aircraft that still allow for it, like the FSLabs A320, I use 2d panels only, which IO actualy prefer, since I'm not yet ready to depart VR... LOD also never higher than 4, at most 4.5 YMMV - it all depends on the type of use you want to give to the sim. If procedural simulation is what you're up to, than you can easily open hand of some graphics sugar, and gain decent frames to play more complex stuff...
