Thanks Krupi,
I would have thought it was just me
For the new beta I upgraded my ram to 16gb and did a clean install of the o.s. on a ocz vertex3 ssd.
For my testing I disabled/enabled multithreading and pagefile(couldnt see a difference) as well as any defender/virus/firewall.
Only the sim/TiR5/Ts3/ch software and the OS are on the ssd.
Parked at my favorite spot at tramecourt on the ATAG server and commenced the usual pan left/right scenario with about 10fps less then the the alpha on my old HDD and 8gb of ram I previously was using for the sim.
Settings on high except:
No SSAO
Med trees
Med Buildings amount and detail
No grass, w/grass
Latest nvidia drivers
Vsync on
Results: Using TiR5 panning L/R on the ground @ Tramecourt in a Ju88
Trees in the distance are not smooth as butter with fps @40/48
In a Ju88 with the engines running fps will drop to...25/42
With these settings I could achieve a respectable 55/60 fps with no engines before the patch.
As I lowered settings they didnt seem to give as much of performance boost as before when .
