Another thing, I had G-SYNC on from yesterday, shut down. Powered on today and found my other game's fps took a massive drop. Turned off G-SYNC and restarted, everything back to normal. Just curious, but fairly certain my 15 fps is without G-SYNC. Well, still open to suggestions to improve fps other than the obvious turn down settings or get a better system.

Well, anything else I can do? I heard the 6700HQ is not overclock-able. Something else I can do to my fps? I'm specifically thinking of this. I know VC is more fps intensive, but my FSX looks the same as his and doesn't even run half as smooth. If anyone has any ideas about what to do, please let me know.

Never mind, turned on optimized defaults in the BIOS and G-SYNC is now, there. I'll try it and report back. I only found G-SYNC in the Setup G-SYNC tab and disabled it. Unfortunately absolutely zero fps increase. Maybe there's something else I have to disable, but unchecking the Enable G-SYNC box DID NOT provide a fps improvement. Gonna need more suggestions here. Strangely enough, I enabled G-SYNC for windowed and fullscreen mode, it didn't make a difference, still the 15/16 fps sitting still. Do I need to restart after making a change like that? What should I do here?

How do you do that? I just cannot find any setting with the word "G-SYNC" in it anywhere.

Something else I should mention, in the Nvidia control panel, it just says "Laptop Display" it didn't have "(G-SYNC Capable)". Does that mean I don't have any G-SYNC to turn off? I thought this model supported G-SYNC.

Changed PhysX processing to the GTX 980M instead of the CPU, but only got 0-1 frame, which makes it an unconfirmed improvement.

Also, what kind of fps improvement am I looking at? I'm not expecting magical fps leap, but every frame helps. If anyone has a tweak that works in bring up some frames with a low end system, please share them if possible.

How do you do that exactly? I have nothing to do with G-Sync in Inspector.

I just cannot think of what caused the 8 fps drop. Is it because I'm moving? Because as I move faster before rotate, the frames steadily drop until I lift off when it returns to about 10/11 fps. The 16 pretty much never comes back, the best over land with Orbx was 13 fps. I would've expected more from 3.2 Ghz... Am I right in assuming that way?

No traffic, I knew this system can't handle the traffic on top of what I need which is reasonably accurate terrain. Same setting, default Trike at Friday Harbour, default fair weather runs at around 50 fps.

Hello folks, I just recently bought an ASUS G752VY and have these specs: i7-6700HQ @ 2.60Ghz, but pretty much always run at 3.2Ghz Nvidia GTX 980M 32GB RAM Windows 10 64-bit Now, this isn't top line, I know. I just want to know if this is normal and maybe get some suggestions. I was running PMDG 777, Orbx Global + Vector at FSDT CYVR with Orbx Weather 5. Here are my settings in FSX: LOD Radius: Large (untweaked) Mesh Complexity: 60 Mesh Resolution: 2m (for 3D taxiway etc.) Texture Resolution: 15cm (for 3D taxiway etc.) Water Effects: High 2.x (for use with Bufferpools) Land Detail Textures: ticked Scenery Complexity: Normal Autogen Density: Sparse Special Effects Details: High Clouds draw to 60mi and at maximum detailed coverage. With all that, I was getting 15 fps sitting still and 8 fps rotating, is that normal? Am I missing something? Also, I read that the 6700HQ cannot be overclocked, is that true? I'm an amateur at hardware, but from videos I saw, my fps just isn't what it's suppose to be for a CPU running at 3.2 Ghz consistently. Thanks for the help!

Shadows and traffic are both disabled and I run FSX in DX10; DX9 produces about 2 fps. The texture resolution is set to 15cm because that's the minimum for 3D taxiway bridges etc., but I'll try 1m. Also, how do an i7 6700K 4.0Ghz and an 8GB GeForce 980M sound to you? Will that be good enough for about 20fps on FSX and P3D with the same settings (no idea what the setting options are for P3D)? I know it's hard to be exact, but educated guesses are good enough, I don't want to spend CAD$3700 without having some idea about the results.

Hello fellow simmers: I am a low end computer user and I love playing FSX. Here is my spec: i5-3230M @ 2.6 Ghz; 12GB RAM and Nvidia GeForce GT740M. Not a great setup and I don't know if this is asking for too much out of it. Here are the settings: LOD Radius: Large; Mesh Complexity: 20; Mesh Resolution: 5m; Texture Resolution: 15cm; Water Effects: Mid 1x; Scenery Complexity: Normal; Auto-Gen Density: Sparse. Weather settings all on minimum. With PMDG 777 on approach to FsDreamTeam's Vancouver, I only get about 8 frames with the best combination of tweaks I can find, is this asking for too much out of my system? I really want to fly with this kind of detail, but if it's asking for too much, what is the best way to get more framerates with as little loss in quality as possible?

Well, I need someone to work with me for this. Not sure what you mean by that post, but I don't know how to change air quality in FSX SDK.

Hello fellow fliers: I have a few question about AI traffic. I have AI Traffic enable, I like the realism of not being the only one around. I don't have a great system, my FPS running high-end scenery and high-end aircrafts are playable at best. I noticed something strange with the AI though. Number one, I need to turn the AI slider to 95% to start seeing international flights and heavy aircrafts, but what comes with it is loads of smaller domestic aircrafts that just kills my frame. Is there a way see heavies at international airports and reduce the number of domestic aircrafts? Number two, I know this has been a long time issue is that the AI lands and stops within two meters and exits the runway. Normally this is fine, but at FlyTampa's Montreal, the AI gets stuck at the high-speed exit because there is only one taxiway that can take them to the terminal and departing aircrafts are constantly occupying. I know you can edit the performance of each aircraft, but I don't have time to search for realistic performances for each of them, is there a quick way of doing this? I really need an answer, I'm trying to make an educational video of a flight and I cannot do it with 15 frames a second and AI making carrier-style landings and departures despawning right in front of me because too many domestic flights getting in the way of each other. Thanks in advance.
