DCS 1.5 Performance after upgrade to windows 10

[Mowgli]

Prior to the vicious virus attack on my win7 pro, I had a steady FPS of 60.

I had no choice but to upgrade to win10 if I wanted to keep all my installed programs and avoid a fresh install after format.

 

after updating Nvidia driver and optimizing win10 for boost performance and gaming:book:, I run DCS 1.5 and for my surprise I got a hit of up to 10-12 FPS loss.

 

after testing different settings (flying the KA-50 quick start mission "free fly around Sukhumi")

 

I tried flying without v-sync and to my surprise(again) I got a boost to 100-75 FPS when my monitor refresh rate is 60....:huh:

 

I had to lower the trees distance to under 10,000 and the visibility range to 'High' from 'Ultra' in win7.

 

so can you guys share your insights after upgrading to win10 and if there is something that I can change/tweak in order to gain better FPS with higher setting?

 

Thanks

I do fresh install upgrade to Win10 and DCS work much better now. FPS is same, around 60 (+/- 2) as on Win7 but no more long freezing.

A Fresh install is actually formating the computer and it is simply not an option right now.

 

I tweaked windows 10 by following several guides I found on the net and I will probably wait for

 

ED's next improvement on the graphic engine.

 

Thanks
