Above snapshot of the core was from a recently built system:
I-7 3770 quad core processor.
G.SKILL Trident X Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2666 (PC3 21300) Desktop Memory Model F3-2666C11D-
GIGABYTE GA-Z77X-UD3H LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
Vid cards are
EVGA GeForce GTX 660 SUPERCLOCKED 2048MB GDDR5 x2 run in SLI.
Running on an SSD drive.

I do a lot of recording in 1080p while I fly, and I've noticed framerates from >600 fps to 150ish fps...which made me wonder what was causing the big disparity so I put Resource monitor on my 2nd monitor and saw the snapshot that I posted.

Graphic cards don't hiccup for me, but I00% CPU usage is never good IMO.

Cheers!

Could it be a MAC issue?


I'm guessing it can be… I never had this kinda problem before, and since one of the latest updates it started… but I don't think they changed something 'bout the graphic processing on those :? All my other stuff keep running smooth!

Well… when I see many objects on the ground I'll close my eyes and will try to kill anyway :lol:

If you are not attacking ground targets, you could turn down the terrain detail, that should help.

Thanks for the tip :)

I did turned down all settings but I still have a lame FPS close to the ground.

Discovered another issue: the max terrain texture sticks to the NO LIMIT value, and I can't change it. When I mess with the settings and click save changes, an come back to the video settings, the max texture settings is back to no limit :-? All other keep the changes previously made.

Has this with the BOLD FONT FOR ICONS before. This one is working now.
