FPS Testing to determine frame draining options

[ofsVegas]

I was doing FPS testing on my PC (specs at bottom of post) to see which options in the graphics menu were causing the most pull on the system to help a friend out and thought I might as well post the results for the new DCS flyers that were wondering what changes would give them some FPS back.

 

All Air testing was based in a F-15C at beginning of Instant Action / Free Flight

All Ground testing was 20 feet over a specific line of trees every time

 

 

The yellow highlights are the changes made for that test.

 

My Mods are:

SweetFX 2.0, Afterburner, Better Explosion Sounds v0.9, Diveplane's Sound Pack 2.9, DTAC Terrain + Highways Villages, Vehicle Fire, HD Building, F-15C HD Cockpit, Environmental Shaders v5.71
