Hi Stan,

it is impossible to give a solution for every individual system.

Here is a very good site with very usefull tips. Read carefully through them and test the suggestions one by one.

Looking at you system there might be a problem with your RAM: you are using RAM from 2 different vendors. That should never be done!

I see that you have many things turned on in your sim. Trying to tune down the settings might help out a bit as well. It's all up to the user which things you want on or off. I do have to say that I have no experience with AMD but from my reading on all the forums many people prefer intel for the sim instead of AMD. I have had a system clocked around the same speed and it wasn't all that good, the higher the clockspeeds the smoother FSX will run as well as getting the RAM fixed and using it from one vendor :)

Agreed with Jerdoo, you really got a lot at high settings, certainly traffic can take a big bite out of the your fps. Keep in mind that this is NOT a standard game but you got to decide on what is important for you at each flight. If I fly GA I want trees and dense mesh, if I fly big airliners why should I have high settings of autogen? You pick from each setting what's important at that time.

Mathijs, maybe it's time to repost your thoughts about "Why do (I) get 50 fps and you get single digit fps?" I tried searching for it and couldn't find it. Fortunately, I made a print-out. You had an excellent section on making up different settings for the kind of flying you do and then saving them.
