hey guys, i have a big problems with fps. i got about 10-15 fps on low/medium low settings. my computer is:
phenom X4 940 3ghz
4gb ram
ati radeon 4870 gddr5
640gb hard drive.

I guess, i could run fsx on this computer with medium or medium-high settings without any fps dropping all the time. i have installed sp1 and sp2 but doesnt help. My installed addons are fspassengerx and mytrafficx. any suggestion or ist good computer for fsx?
thanks for help

Try turning down your AI traffic. That takes up a lot of cpu, thus dropping FPS.

You might also want to install the texture conversion software, it takes all of the FSX textures and makes them smaller and this helps FSX to load them quicker, I went from 20-25FPS to 30-40!
