Bubblehead, forgive us for going off on a tangent here, but in a way
THIS IS relevant to your question.
You have (or are getting) a better graphics card than the one I have now (a HD
6850).
You should have better results than what we're talking about.lunitic_8 wrote:OldAirmail wrote:In all probability, yes.
On the other hand my HD 6850 works just fine.
Was this with the settings turned all the way down? Was the game paused when you took this pic? If I remember correctly(forgive me if I'm wrong for it has been a few years) it's better to have a set frame rate instead of having it to try and achieve the highest frame rate possible.
Just to make everyone feel better, I think that that was a fluke.
I'm still in the button/knob/switch setup mode after re-installing FSX.
FSX is still in it's original post install mode, in other words there's no real modifications.
While running FSX with 6 monitors (plus the 1 Saitek Pro Flight Instrument Panel) just now, I'm getting 30 to 40 FPS. mostly around 35-40.
When I press the GPS button on the Pro Flight Instrument Panel to make the GPS screen pop in my DeskTop Aviator GPS panel the FPS drops by about 5 to 6 FPS.
There are still some things to tweak, and if all goes well I should be back up in the upper 50s or lower 60s again. Of course that's not taking into account the 5 to 6 FPS drop for the GPS panel.
