hi there....

My main screen on my Thinkpad T61P (14 inch - 1400x1050) started getting these black spots in the corner (which according to lenovo's customer care is damage, and is the liquid leaking). So we ended up getting this 22 inch screen http://www.lg.com/in/computer-products/lcd-monitor/LG-W2243T.jsp . Its native Resolution is 1920x1080.

I tried using it yesterday for a hour and two, and its cool... but i figured out today tat fsx might have problems...

as it is i get <20fps with normal scenery in the pmdg 747 on the 1400x1050... i wonder how my GPU will handle 1920x1080.... Any Tips?

You can try 16-bit colour, that reduces the texture load. Other than that, AA is the biggest fps-killer. You may have to reduce the AA substantially, but actually it won't look that different because of the higher res.

thanks for your suggestions.

i have AA off on the 1400x1050 screen already.... with it on i get <10FPS on the 747X

heres what i get on the screen at 1920x1080 with medium settings with the default fsx planes.
