Cheers man for getting some great performance :)

I am just curious though I am getting not even close to the same performance and was wondering if you were having the same issue prior to the patch?

I am attaching my two photos of what My GPU's were doing in both tests and now I am starting to worry that its either my set up or my cards that are under powered.

Just wanted to get your opinion. Thanks very much and grats again on getting that kind of performance.

Both Tests were performed at 1920x1080 on a 40' HD TV. I still get that GPU1 clipping and only minor improvement in GPU2 performance.

Before the last (14550) patch the sim was unflyable on my rig at any graphic settings. The issue was not with frame rates it was the stuttering.
My guess, with your rig at 1920x1080 on medium settings you should be getting average of 40 - 50 FPS. One thing I've noticed even with 14550 patch that disabling mirror significantly improved the smoothness of rendering.

Cheers!

Thanks :) I was being dumb i forgot to update my ATI drivers. Once i updated to 11.5 I got almost the same performance that the OP for this thread did :) almost :) his cards are better then mine so I got just a bit more stutter with everything on but MAN was it fun to fly a complete mission :) With just a bit of tweaking im sure i can get it to run smooth as silk 50+ fps and with future improvements may even be able to run it with full graphics switches :) (fingers crossed) wooooooot :) if feels good to be back in the air again :)

here is my performance single Brit campaign mission with everything on full 1920x1080. :)

Have you tested 14588 already?
Think it is a little bit smoother, 1 step in the right direction
Tomorrow I will start more testing,it's 2:00Am now

Cheers

Yes, in fact I feel like I should be getting paid.

Here is something weird. At default medium settings my frame rates range 50-60. If I change anything like lowering amount of buildings from medium to low my average FPS drop below 25! :rolleyes:

We are still in beta - my offshore developers in India do better testing LOL.

After monkeying with this thing for couple of hours it seems the best balance for me is having everything on highest settings with SSAO and VSYNC OFF, AA=8.

No mirrors. Having mirrors causing major performance and stutter issues with my setup.

I don't get it, but I can live with this.

London still has major issues with FPS and stuttering.

You are right, Steam shows me 229 Hours of Betatesting
must look were my post-dated cheque is :evil:


Conclusion

since latest patch (I had this Cloud thing on)

3x Launcher crash
Sound+ForceFeedback comes and goes
must repair my key and joystick setting
my Freetrack won't start anymore :sad:
but yes it run a little bit smoother (I think)

now I will to reinstall Win7 and all the other stuff
it will take some time :rolleyes:

Cheers

nice rig :) I get the exact same microstuters at the same alt as you when flying over london :( good news is its not my machine that is causing it :)

S!

My on-line performance (>20 FPS) is pathetic regardless of settings. :-x

have you tried just running one card? i ask because you should be getting 60+ fps with your rig and the only thing i can see in your specs that would cause a bottle neck is the XFIRE and the hydra you are running.
