FSUIPC/WideFS7...How much can I Off-load....
Posted: Mon Nov 30, 2009 11:42 amHey Everybody,
I have multiple rigs networked together via a gigabit switch. My i7 920 @ 4.1 still runs FSX well, but is slowly being taken to it's knees as I add more software. I can save the day by reducing settings, but that's not really what this question is about....I would like to keep the high settings--and offload a lot of the cpu work onto another pc.
What I have so far is:
FSX
Acceleration
GEX
UTX
REXv2
Night Environment X
Heli Traffic 2009
FSGenesis mesh
Fraps
Saitek X52 pro
TrackIR4 (5 software)
Still want/need to add:
FSinn
Copiliot
Possibly some more general AI traffic
Also possibly:
FSUIPC
WideFS7
WidevieW
As far as I understand at this point--I think-- the following can be off-loaded to another pc:
Saitek
TrackIR
Heli Traffic
FSinn
Copilot
Any insight here on the benefits (or not) of installing FSUIPC/WideFS and getting it setup properly.....Should it actually reduce the load on the i7 significantly?
