Ahmed Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 HellO! I bought a laptop with 2GB video card AMD Radeon 7600M series.. *Not sure which one exactly*, anyway, i was hoping to run x-plane 9 on high settings, but when i set the buildings into *Tons* my fps drops to 20, maybe lessAlso in the rendring options, it says that its using 300mbs or something from the video card, while i have 2gbs.. Any help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andydckent Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 The CPU is the bottle neck not the GPU? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahmed Posted July 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 But im pretty sure that "Buildings" in X-Plane 9 uses GPU not CPU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonymousUser68 Posted July 8, 2013 Report Share Posted July 8, 2013 I would suggest a CPU bottleneck, if you are only at 300mb of vram you can probably boost your texture resolution which will take advantage of your GPU but sadly your CPU is limiting the object number. I suggest this guide... CPU-IntensiveWorld Level of DetailNumber of ObjectsDraw Cars On RoadsDraw Birds (not that expensive for modern machines)Draw Hi Detail WorldWorld Field Of View (wider view means more CPU work!)GPU-IntensiveTexture Resolution (requires more VRAM)Screen ResolutionFull Screen Anti-Aliasing (FSAA)Anisotropic Filtering (most cards can do at least 4x)Draw Hi-Res Planet Textures From OrbitCloud Shadows and Reflections (not that expensive)Draw Hi Detailed World 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
