I get the same results using the stock CFG in P3D 2.0 or adding [JOBSCHEDULER] AffinityMask=14 setting. About 35-40% CPU usage max and 46 threads on an I7-3770K OCd to 4.3Ghz. However, when I set [JOBSCHEDULER] AffinityMask=15, I get worse performance - 20% reduction in FPS, the same amount of threads, and 50% CPU usage. For me, leaving at stock for now works the best, but it seems like there is a lot of room for improvement of cores/thread usage in P3D that is waiting to be tapped.

Great tip Dylan. Also make sure in windows security options to allow full control for standard Users in the P3D main folder. Otherwise the program will stop because it would need admin access approval.

P3D V2.0 Stock with no add ons - Wow, beautiful and smooth. Graphics maxed and getting 30+ FPS in all the locations I tested - Ohare, San Francisco, Default. No popups is a true game changer. Interior cockpit shadows were an unexpected bonus. This is the future after a few bugs are fixed. I'm on Windows 8.1 64 Bit Many bugs left to iron out: Had a few CTD errors: runtime error R6025 - pure virtual function call Blackscreen happened numerous times Joystick would randomly stop working
