Very Poor Performance

[Juergen]

Hi,
I just installed FT Las Vegas. I am sitting at the gate, time = dusk; aircraft = PMDG B737 - 800 American Airlines and I am getting between 4 - 6 fps. I used the recommended settings as per FlyTampa FAQ's. It is very difficult to keep the aircraft on the taxiway. So I did a short pattern and the fps increased to 12 - 16 fps getting away from Las Vegas. Obviously this is NOT flyable.
Yesterday I loaded FT Tampa and I am getting 20 - 25 fps sitting at the gate, same conditions, same aircraft. Not great, but flyable.
By reducing the Texture Resolution from Ultra to High, I gained approx. 3 fps - negligible.
The installation: I used the Installer, let it finish, moved the complete FlyTampa folder to a "Addon Scenery folder and clicked on the Add-to-P3D (Windows Command Script [cmd]) file.
My PC: Intel I5; MB LGA1151; 16GB DDR4; GeForce GTX 960 4GB -;
Any help/assistance would be appreciated
Thanks

Hi,
I forgot: Sim = P3Dv4.5

[Benncpp15]

I5 and 960 + PMDG = poor performance.
Upgrade

I5 and 960 and PMDG B747-8 + Aerosoft Megaairport EDDF = descent performance 15 - 18 fps
Upgrade to what???????????? Recommendations are happily accepted.
Thanks

Hi,
After watching several videos and reading post's, I followed "JAJ TV''s " & "Flightsimmer 101's" video settings guide for P3Dv4 2019 and achieved very respectable results:
FPS went from a dismal 4-6 fps to a respectable 28 t0 32 fps! So this is obviously very flyable!!
So the blue side is up again in my sim world
Thanks for response
