Yeah but the iFDG A320 is such a frame-rate hog!!!!!  And frankly I can't understand why.  Its not that much more detailed than any SGA aircraft, which don't impact FPS AT ALL, in my opinion.  I mean when compared to payware such as the PMDG 737NG it impacts FPS almost as much but is not nearly as complex.  I dunno, it is a great plane, but yeah...



Hmmm, I can't say that I've experienced that Silver.  Of course everyone's PC and flightsim config is different, but I don't recall the A320 eating frames at a rate that would cause me to be alarmed. 
I have a home built AMD 2.5 (Barton) with a gig of 400 ram, and an ATI 9500...not a screamer, but it gets the job done. Smiley

Well haha ok maybe I over-reacted.  It drops my FPS to the low 20s high teen range in areas where other planes can maintain about 26-30 FPS.  All iFDG aircraft seem to impact my FPS somewhat.  I dunno...
