The settings are very hard to predict, close to impossible to do with out extensive cp testing and lots and lots of trial and error, If i recall correctly, there was a website that tested FSX for you and recommended some settings for you but I can't seem to remeber it. Aside from that its TRIAL AND ERROR!!! GUESS AND CHECK!!!!! Just fire up the sim and try different settings!

There is no such thing as "best settings for FSX". Settings will depend on your system and how it's set up. There are a lot of suggestions in the stickies at the top of the forum. Try those first and work from there to find what works on your system.

there are some tricks i tryed at first 1 was using fs2004 ac if your really hurting on frame rates that helps. the other is just using small aircraft. 3d clouds are also a big drain if you can deal with no clouds do so

big or small i like them all ...? that dosent sound right&&slew mode dose not count as flying&&737-700aholic
