Basically, if you are not getting frame rates '''much''' higher than 100 fps with the "Level 0" startup profile, then using complex aircraft (777,787) or scenery (KSFO, KLSV etc) will be next to impossible with your system. | Basically, if you are not getting frame rates '''much''' higher than 100 fps with the "Level 0" startup profile (without using frame throttling obviously), then using complex aircraft (777,787) or scenery (KSFO, KLSV etc) will be next to impossible with your system. | ||
Once you have done that, I'd suggest to look at aircraft with 2D panels - such as the c172p-2dpanel or other simple aircraft (TODO: list of aircraft with 2D panels). It is very well possible that you need to find a combination of features and aircraft/locations that your system can handle without killing the FlightGear process. | Once you have done that, I'd suggest to look at aircraft with 2D panels - such as the c172p-2dpanel or other simple aircraft (TODO: list of aircraft with 2D panels).
