FPS?

Postby GunnerMan » Mon Dec 06, 2004 10:30 pm

Well I am basing this poll on Max Settings in the middle of NYC with scatterd cumulous clouds. Rember MAX settings just to keep things uniform.  

I want to see what people are getting on their rig so post your Rig and FPS you got in a extremley dense area such as NYC center with maxed out settings. If you are to imbarrased to tell us what you got then at least vote but I will start ad its not gnna be pretty...

Seattle Intl, Default Cessna, Max settings (with AA) on and a decent Res.
SYSTEM- AMD64 3200+
512 mbs PC-2100 RAM
GeForce MX440 64 mb GFX
and I got 2 FPS with heavy clouds and max settings again let me stress this.
I was barley able to take off :o

You know, this really isn't a good reference for performance.  There are so many combinations of harware out there, it's almost silly to think it's capable of telling you anything.

I don't get below 12fps in the most dense areas.  Averagely i get 45fps, and i max out at 110fps in very sparse areas.  This is with max settings. 16xAF, TAA with 6xAA, 1024*768 and 32-bit colour, with all quality settings maxed in the graphics card control panel.

I find some of these FRs staggering and if I'd invested in a 64 3200+ I would be seriously pi**ed off if I was only getting 1 fps. Take a close look at your settings because even running with just a cheeseboard

That is why I asked you post your system specs. I did not want it to be a terribly accurate area as that would be to much trouble to do for all of you, so i gave some simple guidelines and asked you post your specs(if not already in sig) and the FPS you got just so I could learn what people are getting with different hardware configurations ;)

Yeah well it was a huge improvement from my oldm 1.2 Ghz AMD Athlon XP but my RAM and video card kill it :/.

It varies terribly for me. it all depends where I am and what setting - every setting I have it on. Maxed out though it is usually under 10 though.

A 64 bit processor only gives you an advantage with 64 bit apps, don't fall for the 64 bit hype when using 32 bit apps like FS. I get 30FPS average in NYC with all settings max.

That's right, I'm now using an AMD! I decided to give them another try and they

With clouds it can be as low as 6 (but without stuttering), without clouds it's over 30 ......

I like clouds ........
I like flying .........
I like a lot of framerates .....

but you can't have it all (at least, I can't).

Agreed 64bit will only give big benefits when using programs for 64bit, but the AMD64 are still worth getting as they come with HyperThreading which boosts FSB from 200 to a theoretical 1000 (same principal as P4's)

With the tweaks I was able to find thanks to Google, I am unable to see my exact fps, but I have been able to estimate them in the neighborhood of 41-50, also thanks to the wonderful information I found online.
Great edit, Bob.


Google it.

Press Shift+Z two times and it will show your FPS!  You dont need to guess it.
