FLYTAMPA - LEGACY - AMSTERDAM FSX P3D

FLYTAMPA - LEGACY - AMSTERDAM FSX P3D

I trust FlyTampa's quality builds, but I was very skeptical when I was downloading entire Amsterdam, I was quite fearful for my FPS and VAS especially after their Toronto scenery was brutal on my PC. But to my surprise the performance of this airport with half of the options turned "ON" exceeded my expectations, I was getting around 23-26 FPS when locked on 30. The surrounding scenery is vast and beautiful, I wish more developers would focus just as much of their attention on the city as they do on the airport. Easy 5 of 5 stars on this one. i7 3820 @ 4.85Ghz GTX 1070 16G RAM - Dominator Platinum

FLYTAMPA - TORONTO FSX P3D

FLYTAMPA - TORONTO FSX P3D

Details details detail. What can I say, initially once I have loaded the airport, slewed around it for a bit, looked at the local buildings I was blown away. The detail was spectacular but then came the time for flying, and unless you have a supercomputer or you fly default planes on nothing but this scenery you might not be too impressed. Now, I have installed LOW-RES texture pack (this essentially was the reason why I have it 4 stars not 3) and the performance for me improved. If the airport looks amazing but the performance is horrible, it's kind of pointless to even have it. I have lowered my Autogen to "Normal" and Scenery Complexity with "Sparse" and only with this I managed to land at the airport with my 777 or A319 from Aerosoft barely clinging to about 17-19FPS. If I bump the complexity to normal I barely stay above 10FPS. And that is with all the settings turned off in the configurator. If you have FTX Global, Vector and Open LC Canada (Or UTX Canada) and think of flying in with PMDG 777 or Aerosoft Airbuses....forget it, you will OOM 40 miles before you get to the airport. FlyTampa with their CYYZ has thrown everything @ the detail and discarded performance completely. Disappointing. Detail: 10/10 Features: 8.5/10 (Lots of components and downloads which increase your FPS from "Horrible" to "That will do") Surrounding Scenery: 9/10 Performance: 5.5/10 My Rig: Motherboard: Asus Rampage IV Formula CPU: i7 3820 @ 4.75Ghz (Liquid Cooled) RAM: 16GB Kingston HyperX GPU: Nvidia GTX 770SC 4GB Overclocked
