HI All

I just go the FSX, and it has like it says but I am having problems running FSX.

I find I am only getting 4 - 10 frames a min

I am running

AMD 3800 Duel Core
2GB of RAM
74GB 10,000 HardDrive
ATI 1900XT videocard

What's your video card memory?  I'm running an ATI Radeon 9000 with 64M and getting relatively low fps, and can't really get anything above "medium high"...

I have 512mb

Hmm...4-10 frames a min?

so, that would be.....

0.06 frames per second?



he made a typo I couldn't resist commenting on.

sorry I meant 4-10 fps

I have just download the new version of the video drivers

My system is very close to yours:

Gateway GT5082

AMD 3800 DUAL Core (2.0 Ghz each)
2048 Mb PC4200 DDR
250 Gb HD
120 Gb HD
512 Mb ATI Radeon X1600 Video Card
17" Widescreen LCD Plasma Monitor (1440 X 900 Res)

and my FPS also suck...

WTF... this totally pisses me off... since Tuesday I've gone to THREE Best Buy's, two CompUSA's, two Circuit City's, two Fred Meyers, and four GameStops to find the game... NOTHING!  Not even an empty spot indicating they were sold out!

It's like, come on man, they built the freakin' game 30 miles from where I live, why can't we get it at the same time?  


Gggrrrr!!!!

have you read nothing?  a few stores accdently put it on the shelves before they were supposed to, they all (as far as i know) have pulled them back off the shelves so you need to wait untill the 17th.

I live in Seattle, and I have yet to check a Best Buy around here, I live roughly 5 miles from where the game was made, so i might go tomorrow and find one somewhere.

My X850 gets like triple your FPS. Try turning down some settings..

You must have something wrong with your setup somewhere. With my spec

AMD64 3500+
1gig Corsair @ 10,2,2,2
Nvidia 6800 Ultra, only 256ram
80gig 7200rpm Sata hdd

I was holding an FPS of between 15-25 (locked @25) in the demo. I had my sliders set to achieve the best looking environment but did turn down all of the AI (bar boats) and I think autogen was only on dense and water on high 2. What have you got your sliders set at?

Are you sure you dont have loads or proccesses running in the background hogging resources?

Check your bios settings. Make sure than any on board processes that are duplicated by video/sound cards motherboard etc etc etc and Windows are disabled. Your FS9 was presumably running at a little more than 4fps?

FS9 was presumably running at a little more than 4fps

FS9 is running at 35 to 50 fps, everything on ultra High

FSx I can get 20fps on Medium

so I am not sure what to do from here

Don't moan guys I've got a PIII 1GHz so my machine probably won't get above 1 frame per hour! And it'll be a good 6 months before it appears in Central Europe. Ahh well at least I'll have a shiny new PC when it gets here

Am in the same boat. Have been trying different setting with the sliders but have not had much success yet.
