Flight simulator x is all choppy

mecoatwar · 12-29-2006, 09:28 PM

Ok I have a xfx geforce 7900 gtx and a.....well just look at all my specs. I just installed Microsoft flight simulator x and whenever I play at max resolution it is all choppy[1600X900X50 or something like that]. Which since I have a widescreen 22 inch samsung lcd, maybe it should lag a little. But I thought that the xfx geforce 7900 gtx is like really good, so why does it lag at all? is there any way to turn up the performance on the graphics card???!!! I hate lag

any suggestions would be appreciated. Oh And I already did that 9 step game list you have so yeah dont ask me to do it. thanks

seems like your system would play it.i just went to microsoft,and looked at system requirements.try it at a lower resolution,and see if that has any affect.
