Sorry if I confused you - what I wrote makes no sense!

What I meant to say was "is this being run off of the CPU graphics, or a GPU?" Sorry for the confusion!

In that CPU-Z window you showed earlier, there's a graphics tab. Should be on there.

Hopefully that picture helps

All good. That's what we're here for. You got me exactly what I needed, thanks.

So the 7700 CPU that you have can actually generate graphics for you, but it appears that you have a GTX1050Ti, which is a processor dedicated to that (allows your CPU to concentrate on stuff like sim physics, running other programs, and so on - in theory). Some CPUs require external graphics processors, and some people run CPUs like yours without the external card (with worse graphics). Just needed to know what we're dealing with.

Can you post your graphics settings that you're using in the sim?

So weirdly if i disable "Anti-aliasing" the problem is fixed. However the plane looks awful and all jagged 😞

On your Settings-Display-Scenery tab I would lower the Level of Detail Radius, Mesh, Texture Resolution sliders down to about 3/4 instead of full right.  Also the Water Effects slider to less than 1/2.

Under the [Graphics] in your FSX.cfg try 1024 instead of 4096 for Texture Max Load=

This should take a lot of the strain off of your system and maybe clear up the boxes on your lights.  Are you using Triple buffering instead of Anti-aliasing?

Pretty sure its something in this thats causing it. When i turn it off they are fine???

Have you experimented with your NVidia Control panel and tried setting up FSX through it?  I have my Filtering set up just using the Application control but you might try letting the Control panel do it.

Its only the 777 it does it on...NGX is fine, aerosoft fine. Dont think its my graphics in general thats the issue

The AVSIM FSX Configuration Guide also provides some suggestions as well as settings for the Nvidia Inspector program.

Are you using a PMDG or "3rd party" livery?
Some have weird glitches.
