Ok here for your weak eyes I zoomed in for you.

Thats a 66.5 fps in that shot

That says 52.9 fps there.

Absolutely Crossfire makes no improvement at all, but it also isn't worth disableling for just for this sim either.

If you want to save a few FPS, then yes it is worth switching Crossfire off, its been well documented and I know this for a fact.

In FSX, you need all the FPS you can get (apart from your rig obviously) that's why we tweak it inside out.

LOL m8, what resolution is that, 640x480? (you said you had a 24" LCD, right) also check the jaggies, you also have the detail very very low for those screenies. and your water setting and autogen is very low too, also what happened to your 180 FPS claims?

That's not what FSX is about. I could turn everything down too and get the same sort of FPS figures or higher.

Now this is what FSX can look like, anything less and you might as well stick with FS9 or even FS8. Just dont expect frame rates that you talk of in FSX if you are using it like you are supposed to

I take it you don't get this stuff in the free demo

How much does it cost to set up the full thing plus any add ons to get such quality?

Too much Over the years I've always built my PC's for FS and its cost an absolute fortune, my rig in sig runs FSX very well now, but that's down to OS and FSX tweaking as well the overclocking, there is lot you can do to FSX to make it look good and run better for free if you follow Nick N's guide.

Follow that to the letter where it is applicable to your system and you will have a much better looking and performing FSX.

I really want to upgrade to I7 for best FSX performance, but have a lot of other financial outlay this year, but come spring 2010 I'll be building a complete new system based on the best I7 hardware available at the time, should be more options than there is now.

Which addons do you use to get that skyline?

Edit: NM, i see you used aerosofts addons, are there any addons other than the city addons you can recommend?

If you mean for terrain MESH, then have a look here, a lot of the world terrain in FS9 and FSX can look generically flat without it.
