I feel like this is an issue worth posting about. I don't exactly have a super computer, mine's a Dell laptop with a NVIDIA 740 graphics card, 900 GB of memory and 8 GB of RAM. While it may not be that great, it can run GTA V, War Thunder and X-Plane 10 with around 35-40 fps, but in FSX I'm lucky to get 20. If I'm near an airpoirt with at least one aircraft, the FPS drops to 10-15. Does FSX lack LOD's? Or is it just incredibly poorly optimized? FSX doesn't seem to depend on what aircraft I fly, from re-packaged old low polygon FS2002 aircraft to high quality aircraft like Milton's planes to huge birds like the C-5 and An-225. Anyway, does anyone have any tips on boosting FPS? I have road and airport vehicle traffic off, and boat and aircraft traffic set to near 0. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance,
