have you verified your gpu drivers are the latest? starting 10.30 i have seen many people complaining about very low fps and solved when they updated their drivers. XP 10.30 has an opengl rework thus very sensitive to latest drivers. hope this helps

I am on xplane 10.25 and using the 14.6 Beta drivers

A Cloud Detail of 70% is high, but according to the other setting I should expect at least twice the fps you have. On the other hand, Ben Supnik still has to solve fps-related issues with AMD-cards in X-Plane 10.30,
