Re: I7 8700 vs I7 9700K upgrade question/preformance

It's been a while now... I installed the I7 9700K. Works like a charm! I can really notice a preformance increase! More FPS (+25%) and less stutters! The powersupply is holding well. I did some measurements, since i'm an electrical engineer. The power consumption stays well below 500 watts. So that'...

Re: I7 8700 vs I7 9700K upgrade question/preformance

Jorgen, he does not have the -K variant of the 8700. However, both the 8700K as well as the 8700 have an all core turbo of 4.3GHz... Means, the 9700K will be considerably faster already without overclocking. BUT: I fear that the rig the topic starter uses is a pre-assembled build from whatever stor...

I7 8700 vs I7 9700K upgrade question/preformance

Hi all, At this moment I am running P3D v4 with an I7 8700 (non k). My preformance is OK but could be better in my opinion. I have noticed all of the cpu cores are running almost constantly at 100% during flight in P3D. Meanwhile my gpu (RTX 2070) is running at like 30%. It's obvious my CPU is the c...

Re: Black flickering screen

Do you have your frames locked with P3D? So no unlimited frames set.

I had the same problem a while ago when I ran the program with unlimited frames. When I locked my frames at 30 fps it didn't happen anymore.

Hope it helps,

Regards,

Jeffrey

Re: P3D v4 not starting?!

At this moment i'm happy to say P3D is working like good old times!
Just made my first test flight and happy to report everything went well.

I have no idea what caused all the problems.
They seem to be gone without me doing anything about it.

Thanks for your response Rob!

Re: P3D v4 not starting?!

Update: For no obvious reason P3D seems to work. Yesterday evening P3D still didn't work. Posted this message on this forum. Today I decided to fire it up, P3D started and it works again!!! I didn't change anything on the pc, it just started the pc up. No changes were made (also not recently to my k...

[RESOLVED] P3D v4 not starting?!

Hi all, Since yesterday I've been experiencing a strange problem with P3d v4.4. When I want to startup P3D, the program doesn't really startup. It's stuck. I see the P3D banner popping up and that's it. When I take a look in the task manager > processes, I can see P3D is running. But only as a backg...
