Hey guys, I was wondering how i can get GOOD AA in the fsx dx10 mode. I have ticked AA in the fsx ingame menu and set up my nvidia inspector (using a gtx570) like in this picture! https://www.dropbox.com/sh/bp0r8nftpr3n9lb/GuiejqcbCf#lh:null-Bioshok.jpg Is it possible to have good AA in the fsx? best wishes enrico

@TechguyMaxC did you chance the termal paste of your 3770k? if you did so.. its no wonder that you can manage clock speeds like these.. if you didnt you got a very good chip.. you had both chips, hadn´t you? whichone would YOU choose (i will go for 2133 ram) in my case? @anxu intels next big thing will be haswell.. that requires another socket though..

i appreceiate all of your posts, thank you for these!! nevertheless i still cant decide... i dont want to buy an IB, get stuck there at 4.5, when i could have had a 2700k at 5ghz, because (i hope you all agree) in that case the sb would outperform the IB. so you mean i should defenetly go for 2133+ ram with low latencys? is it worth the money? if i did that, the IB would defenetely be the better choice, wouldn´t it? i have to think about that, since that would cost me ~140€ more... if i kept the 1600 memory the sb would be better?? taking to consideration the upcoming haswell, i would say that the ib sells more expensive, whenever i would decide to upgrade to haswell... oooh i cant decide... this is difficult please help me :shok:

hey guys, while doing some further researching i found a very nice video, which might influence my decision. i think the 2700k will be my choice.. watch this!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6zUE-dlPfs&feature=related best wishes

I would like to build myself a new rig, as my old one with the amd x6 has never fulfilled my dream of a smooth fsx, while using one of the PMDGs together with an aerosoft scenery. i would like to keep my gpu, which is a gtx 570 oc. CPU and GPU are watercooled and I´ve always done a lot of extreme cpu overclocking, which leads me to the question: 2700k or 3770k? Here in germany the price difference between those two is just about 30€ (3770k - 300€ / 2700k - 270€) and the only thing i´m interested in is whichone of the mentioned cpus does run the fsx better? I´ve read a lot about IB these days and i don´t like the fact that the chip runs THAT hot at ~4.5 GHZ and on top of that it´s well known that the 2700k is an overclocking monster, which means that 4.8 to 5 ghz are the average i´ve seen here people having on avsim. at the moment i would choose the asrock extreme4 z77 motherboard. would you recommend thisone? anyone having it? another significant point is that i would like to keep my 12gb gskill 1600 ram, because i dont see the point in spending more than a hundred euros on something which just gives me a tiny percentage more performance. on top of that i´m still a pupil so i´m pretty much interested in whether its worth the money so the question is: is it worth to buy IB with "slow" 1600 ram? should i go for sandy bridge? this is my first avsim post so tell my if i made something wrong. best wishes
