Any news lately?

Thomas Creel September 21, 2014 7:29:56 PM PCIe 2.0 x16 = 8,000 MB/s = 64,000,000,000 bits PCIe 3.0 x16 = 16,000 MB/s = 128,000,000,000 bits GTX 980 Memory Clock = 7,000 Mb/s = 7,000,000,000 bits As you can see, PCIe 2.0 x16 can EASILY handle the mere 7 billion bits with its 64 billion bit threshold. quote name="frosty777" post="3134436" timestamp="1418650636"]I would wait... 970GTX is PCI 3.0 - and I don´t think your Asus P8P67 supports that? Go for Skylake, new mobo, new GPU, new, new, new...! I was concerned by this until I researched it further. Here is an post from tomshardware forum about the topic. "

Would prefer if I could just get away with an GPU upgrade. My specs; i7 2600k @ 4.8 asus p8p67 pro 3.1 16gb gskill ddr3 1600 1tb seagate barracuda 10krpm geforce 570gtx superclocked 1.2gb So my question is; I want to do an upgrade on my system this winter but I don't want to spend a whole lot of money. I have been considering an 970GTX, but am wondering am I going to be seeing an noticable improvement in FSX if i do so? or am I wasting my money and should be waiting another year for a full system upgrade and hope by then they will release hardware to run FSX the way we all want it to run......

Not real satisfied with this. maybe as freeware.. but not payware.

Sounds like you had a blast. I fly my Stearman from time to time - it never gets boring

Wondering about migrating to prepar3d....... I currently use FSX and am wondering if I would run into performance issues if I installed them both on the same machine - or should it be one or the other?

What are you using? Mouse? I can land it fine with stick and rudder pedals. It lands like a tank.

The above is true. But during the beta I was specifically told it was a Lyc R680 from someone on the dev team. It came in 3 horsepower varients, and is a 9 cylinder radial as opposed to the classic 7 cylinder.

They're refering to the Lycoming R-680. A quick wiki search will bring up the specs, but it came in 3 models so I'm unsure if its 225hp or 300hp.

That thing take's off down the runway like a rocket. I was a beta tester and did mention a few things (which were not changed). I don't know if they're modeling a 450 Stearman or not, but the 220 contential Stearman we have here on our farm flys completely different.Roll rate - too fast.Pitch axis - Much too "touchy"Yaw axis - Way too much authority. Take off and level out 100Knots and hold full rudder and watch what the flight Stearman does, hold opposite aieleron and you can almost turn it around 180 degrees and fly backwards! After all flight's meant to be a game I wouldn't expect them to try to put together a realistic flight model anyway.There isn't much more I can say about it

As someone with a Stearman in the backyard hangar, I'll tell you guy's the Flight model is very much UN-REALISTIC!

You know buddy, it was a suggestion I made because it smoothed things out on my system, IF you want an argument, you can take it up with me in PM, because I will not argue here. Thanks.

Ahah! I never noticed that!

I'm convinced the OP's issue is at hardware or driver level. I suggest to follow NickN's Windows 7/XP set up guide after a fresh format and start over from scratch.

Well Mr. Jim.Works for me. My deepest sympathies if it does not suite your system, :(

TEXTURE_MAX_LOAD=1024toTEXTURE_MAX_LOAD=4096Also, try:[bufferPools]PoolSize=8388608RejectThreshold=131072UsePools=1

Wow that's low. Somthings definately not right, what driver version are you using?And are you using nVidia Inspector? I notice you don't seem to have any Anti Aliasing.... even with 8X AA I would be getting 20fps in that situation at the very least... and my system isn't that far off from yours.

The last time I checked forums were for discussion... if you guys want photo only join flickr or photobucket. /end

Jeesh!!,,, most people spend endless hours tweaking to get rid of blurries - you add them in!way to go, those screenshots look incredible.. Seems as you have the perfect combination!

For me it's stick only. I've tried both CH Yoke and Saitek yoke. I don't like flying with yokes. I was brought up flying a stick and that's the way it's gonna be.

Hi guysI searched but couldn't find any other posts with the same problem - has anyone ever expirenced anything like this with their AI aircraft??Package is WoAI.Thanks for the help.

Cliffs of Dover sure looks good on youtube - but man what an awful pile of rubbish that program is. That hurt the IL-2 name. Get 1946 if you want a realistic simulator. Now back on topic....A2A w/ Accusim all the way!

If i was to go back using an AI program it would be WoAI. It's the best performing of the bunch, and not real hard on framerates.

Agreed - ran FS9 happily on 1GB ram, and a 3700+ AMD for quiet a few years - with addons.

Best bang for the buck is probably the GTX 570 TBH. Overclocked, it's shown to be faster than the 580 in some applications.
