Johns FSX shots

[Sir_Jon]

Seeing as everyone else was posting some, I thought I would join in. These shots were with all the sliders to the right. Sorry about the lack of interesting angles etc, these shots a mainly to show how it would look on a high end pc. Enjoy!






Thanks for looking,
John.

im definutly byin it now

How was performance?

Very good indeed. When I was out over the sea I was getting 20-25 FPS per second, however when I approached St Maarten it dropped dramitacally and ate my FPS, only getting 10-15. Still, I'm very happy because I should get excellent FPS when the real game comes out

With your system setup you were getting 10-15 FPS???  1GB worth of video, SLI even!

I don't quite understand your video card. What is a 512x2 etc etc. Have you two of the same card in or something?

Where've you been?

SLI is with 2 x nVidia cards, Crossfire is with 2 ATI cards (PCI-express that is)
Then you combine that with a dual core CPU, SATA drives in a RAID configuration and about 2GB of special high speed RAM and you've got something like the minimum configuration to run FSX  :D

I'm rubbish at hardware Roger and I can't make head or tail of your answer either.

Yes but thats over the island with all the settings maxed out as an example. Over the water away from land i was happily getting 25 FPS.

beautiful shots..........!! sir+jon...what do you mean, you'll get great fps when the real game comes out.. will it be more fps. friendly than the demo?

[Sir_Jon]

Hopefully yes. This is a buggy pre release demo/beta to put it bluntly. When the game comes out, many of the issues will be fixed, and soon the Flight Sim communinty will find ways to tweak it so its even more FPS friendly.
