What the title says. Post your settings, your specs, test area and how many frames you achieved.

Settings: SP1. General: Highest resolution. Light bloom off. Anti-aliasing on. Aircraft: Ultra High. Scenery: Ultra High (includes autogen on MAXIMUM). Weather: Ultra High. Traffic: Custom. No airline/general aviation traffic, yet 100% CAR TRAFFIC, 7% leisure boat traffic and 100% ships & ferries traffic.

Specs: 1Gb of RAM. Standard Pentium 4 processor (3.2 GhZ). Nvidia 6800 GPU. Its worth noting that NONE of this was overclocked.

Test Area: Get ready for this...SEATTLE CITY AREA.

Frames per second: In excess of 12.8.

Post yours - and imagine how two 8800GTX's would run FSX on these settings. I already have 12+ with a 3 year old card.

Tested it with two aircraft - Payware CLS A300 ST Beluga and default CRJ-700. No frame difference.

Everything on Ultra high, no bloom, in game AA on with NVIDIA Enhance AA, 8xAF, reduced res textures.

Specs: Core 2 Duo 1.83ghz, Nvidia Go 7600, 1 gig RAM, WIndows Vista

Area: Seattle

FPS: 8.3 (average)

An-225 - FSX doesn't support SLi. It has been tested and proven that dual 8800s have barely a spec of better performance over a single card. In FSX the main piece of hardware that determines performance is the CPU.

All maxed, except bloom & road & ship traffic, water on low 2.x.

Runway 15FPS, mid-air 18FPS locked.

Captain Kirk: Quick, Scotty, we need - more - duck tape!
Scotty: She can't hold, Captain!

;D

Yup, that pretty much sums up my computer's current performance [it's as old as ten-year-old expired milk to say the least]. ::)

e6700, 8800GTX, Framerates not a problem, but smooth is.

Tell me what you get on takeoff toward the cranes and CBD from Boeing Field with a glass cockpit plane.  That's the test.  Overflying at 6000 ft I can get in excess of 25fps sliders on Extreme Dense/Very Dense but not on the takeoff roll.

Settings:  Good enough
Test area:  Wherever the f*$@ I feel like flying
Test plane: Whatever the f$#@ I feel like flying
Performance:  20FPS locked in most situations, drops in clouds.

I'm pretty happy. My frame rates are staying pretty much in the twenties.
