Hey all, 

I have recently purchased the fslabs a320 for p3d. I had been holding back for a while but decided to go for it as I loaded in the first time my frames were down to an average 14 FPS. I the adjusted my setting for better performance. Even with the settings being low I still average around 19FPS at a default P3D airport! I have no tweaks to my p3d.cfg file. My specs are 

i7 6700K

GeForce GTX 1070

16GB DDR4 ram

I feel like these are pretty good I just don’t know why my frames are so bad. They stay up around 29-35 in the VC of the PMDG products. 

Please help!!

Around 45-50 percent. My CPU is around 80

Start with the basics.  Reload your graphics driver, delete shaders, and delete your cfg.

Should I really do this? Won’t it delete both scenery airports and ORBX products? Plus this is only happening with the Fslabs. 

Are you running in 4k

I could be. How would I check? I am not home right now and am on vacation. Thank you for all you help! Especially on Christmas!

As long as u only delete your main cfg file u will be fine.  Make a back up first.  Both the cfg and shaders will be rebuilt at next sim start.  But u will lose all your in sim settings.

Have you checked the FSLabs forums?  There are a few threads with user tips on improving performance.

Ok I will try this when I get a chance. 

Thanks!

I have checked but I will check again

I'd add that this A/C is the poorest performer in my hanger. I still like it, but have to turn down some settings to smooth things out.

And, yeah. Check your resolution. 4K would be a bit much. Check your Display Settings, by right-clicking the desktop.

Good luck.

don't know  why  would  you  even  worry  about  the  fps,  the  main thing is  the  sim  smooth is  the main  concern  you  should  worry  about,  anyway  good luck in  chasing the  fps  down😀

The plane is incredibly heavy on CPU usage. With my old PC I had to uninstall it. I could only fly it over open water in good weather. 

Your CPU is a bit better than mine, so you may stand a chance. Setting the target frame rate to unlimited helped a lot (but not enough) in my case.
