shabo Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 Have a question for all you out there that have a 9800 GT or any of the 9000 cards, what drivers are you using? what are your setting, I had 2 7600's and they look better (smoother) than this one does when i am playing either DCS or FSX. I heard the AA doesnt work well with the newest drivers. Also when I am flying FSX my clouds flicker in then out, regardless if I am running active sky or the stock clouds. any help would be great.

beers Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 things are looking pretty good for me, fps is consistently over 25, normally around 35, sometimes up in the 70's. 9500, driver 7.15.11.7813. Using nHancer, still playing with options but i've left most things pretty low and geared toward performance rather than pretty. DSC is quite the CPU focused animal, so it really shouldn't be a burden on your 9800. As for FSX, SP2 really helps if you have multi-core CPU, but the option to use DirectX 10 preview is known to be a bummer in various ways, turn that off and that might fix the clouds. But I'd add, 2 7600's in FSX might give you a better picture than a single 9800. 2600K @ 4.2GHz, MSI P67A-GD55, 16GB G.Skill @2133 , GTX 970, Rift, SSD boot & DCS drive [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
shabo Posted February 3, 2009 Author Posted February 3, 2009 sweet I am gonna try that nhancer, also bought another vid card this morning, going back to SLi, hopefully this will work, thanks for the tip :) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] www.wargamelabs.com you might need a life if you computer specs are in your sig ;)
DTWD Posted February 3, 2009 Posted February 3, 2009 I have an 8800 GT which for all intents and purpose is a 9800 GT and I have no issues at all on either game. Do not run FSX in DX10 mode as already said. Do the affinity trick on BS (if you can). Regards [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
hitman Posted February 4, 2009 Posted February 4, 2009 sweet I am gonna try that nhancer, also bought another vid card this morning, going back to SLi, hopefully this will work, thanks for the tip :) I had the 179 drivers for my 9600GT's, and they worked flawlessly in BS and FC with SLI just fine. Dont do the nhancer stuff...bad memories on Vista. This is what usually caused problems with AA and AF for me.
