Great shots Chuck. ;)

What kind of FPS does that rig give you?

Thanks guys :)

@Andy.....I have it locked at 26 fps and so far it hasn't wavered or stuttered no matter what I throw at it. My settings are not maxed though.......Scenery Complexity and Autogen are at "Very Dense". Water and weather are set to "High" and I run very little traffic (mostly GA) at about 20% plus ship traffic around 15% (So that the Aerosoft Antarctica icebreakers show).

The only thing I've done tweaking wise is send my cfg. through Bjote's Tweaking and Tuning Tool.
