rush why do you keep spamming all 'progress' topics of this forums with questions that aren't even related to the category half the time?

Well, I just sent in my 5770 for RMA (cooling issues) and decided to take a GTX460 as a replacement while I wait for the ATi to get sorted. One thing I was quite surprised about was just how horrible my performance was - I had 19FPS in Innsbruck, where with the 5770 I had 25+ easily. Since a lot of other people say they're getting quite good performance with their nVidias, could I be doing something wrong? XPlane was installed while I had an ATi, could there be some setting that was applied that hits nVidia cards hard?

For what it's worth, a good portion of the newer ATi cards support up to three monitors being connected simultaneously. EDIT: Check this http://sites.amd.com/us/underground/products/eyefinity/Pages/eyefinity.aspx

Bummer...I was hoping, with the trend of XPlane always going above my expectations, it might even work with CrossFire ;D I was really hoping to avoid the sell n' buy another scheme, as it always annoys me.

Reviving a slightly old topic - how does XPlane work with SLI/Crossfire? Would it be better to add another Radeon 5770 into the combo, or replace the existing one with a more powerful single card? I'm asking strictly from the performance standpoint - since I don't want to go through the hassle of selling my current graphics card and buying a new one (still got a near-new E7500 and 4GB of HyperX DDR2 RAM )

Thanks for the answers guys. Very encouraging news... Does that include the upcomming CRJ-200 or Goran's 747-200? ;D

I'm considering switching from the rather horrible MSFS to X-Plane, so I'm thinking, what sort of performance should I be expecting? N.B. Keeping in mind the worst case scenario (everything at max), some complex addons, lots of clouds (+REXPlane) Here's my PC Intel Core i5-750 clocked @ 3.9GHz 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 @ 2000MHz (CL7) Radeon 5770 1024MB Resolution 1280x1024 (though switching to a 24'' wide soon - so 1900x1080).
