@ slipstream --- doesnt dx10 effects fsx performancewise ???? anyways - are u thru with your invest conc MS/FSX being used on a commercial level ;-)) --- been checking this/your thread -- there is some plans conc this business model here in germany too .....@tolip2 --- what is the idea conc bad performance in clouds - being served my bojote ..... can u give me that thread .....@all --- will discuss this with my technicians tomorrow ....... am not really shure if i should go for gtx480 --- but i need to improve performance of my rig - due to it starts to ###### me off .... :-))rgds ... ric hi jose ..... what is yr average fps ??? in for example kjfk or -- friday harbour ??? any stuttering with your gtx 480 ?????thanx ... ric

hi ....one gtx 480 does not support 3 monitors ..... only 2 ..... thats why i checked with nvidis and they said a sli config would work ..... but then again - fsx does not support sli ..... i know that - but the gtx 480 is a bit different then a gtx 285 .... i thought .....#ric

hi and good evening ......am having a question conc a fsx / gtx 480 / i7-980 configuration ......am currently using the ati 5870 with an i7-980xe @ 4,0ghz ..... but i am not happy with the results i am getting (fps/microstuttering etc.... tried a lot of tweaks - outcome: soso) so i think about getting me two gtx 480 (in NVIDIA SLI Konfiguration) ...... i am not shure but shouldnt this be fsx heaven (oh i forgot - i am using 3 monitors in eyevinity config at the moment at a resolution of 5870x1200 with my 3 28 inch monitors ........ i know that many people over here at this forum prefer nvidia anyways ... but what about this sli-solution ..... just to have enough power to have 3 monitors running fine and having fsx running at an average of 30 to 60 frames .... without microstutters and all this other stuff we dont need ......(tweaks included) ......would this be the right step ?????my current installation:fsx,gex,utx,fs global 2010, aerosoft eddf, fsdt kjfk and a few other addons ........any ideas ??? please advise ......cheers ... ric

hmmmmm.... okay ...... but still -- maybe Word Not Allowed or bojote has an idea ..... this would make this programm mad cool !!!cheers ... rick

hi and hello ...........i have a brief question - maybe this has been discussed - but i can not find anything about this issue .......is there generaly a possibility to speed up the load of autogen / scenery in fsx ??no matter what kind of setting i use - even very low - i always see autogen / houses etc ... popup while flying - even in very close distance ....... i am thankful for any comment ...rickp.s. fsdreamteam found a solution - but only for their sceneries and with their autopop-manager tool .....

hi everybody ...... just would like to know if anyone out there at avsim has made experiences with a i7 980xe combined with a nvidia gtx 480 - with matrox triplehead to go (dp) and 3 monitors @ 1024 resolution ......any reply would help me suggest to what kind of system i will switch to .... currently running i5-750 @ 4,0 ghz with an ati 5780 (tweaked with CCC) ..... not what is best - i guess ;-) .... need more performance ... tried several tweaks (*******, nikn etc..) but still need my system to be improved .....thnks for any reply !!cheers ... ric
