"As a matter of fact that area is extremely unlike other areas in FSX which will tax an untweaked sim a lot lot lot more.
That particular area was set-up by Microsoft in the early stages to use as a demo and is quite fluid and is very misleading."
The reason this has been my only post with FSX shots is because of what Michael mentioned above. I too am experiencing the same problems that many others are experiencing. Don't read my specs and assume that everything will work great. FSX is a very demanding piece of software and allot of what you see in my shots is due to knowing how to photograph and how to catch interesting shots.
I can certainly see the advances in this new Sim. My obvious problems like many others is "performance". Yes, I can fly around BUT, it is definitely not a "fluid" experience. My standards are very high so what may be acceptable to some of you, will definitely not be acceptable by me. So for me to say that FSX does not perform well on my machine, simply means that in order for me to get the same experience with FS9, I too need to change some of my hardware.
