Acer XG270HU supports 30 Hz modes in 1440p (2560x1440) and 1080p (1920x1080)

I got very lucky with this monitor. I just bought it 1 week ago and was only thinking about playing first person shooters since it's been about 6 months since I dabbled with Prepar3d. A couple days after I bought it, I naturally thought about Prepar3d and decided to see if I could get a 30hz HD mode...

Re: CPU usage and Frame Limiter

The significance is that the values for the framerate limiter in NVIDIA inspector are kind of strange for example: 27.4 28.5 29.5 30.5 31.5 32.6 Since I cannot make a custom refresh rate that has a decimal number then I have to pick a frame limit that is exactly half a whole number. I tested 28.5, 2...

Re: CPU usage and Frame Limiter

It's not really rhetorical. You cannot get smooth framerate in Prepar3d unless you can maintain your monitor refresh rate (in my case I cannot set my monitor to 30 hz) OR you are running at some fraction of your monitor refresh rate, like 1/2, 1/4 etc. You will have stutters period, unless of course...

Re: CPU usage and Frame Limiter

Update: So, after playing around with the settings and nvidia profile inspector I found a way to get a pretty much stutter free flight. Since Nvidia Profile Inspector has some strange values for the frame limiter I decided to limit frames to 31.5 Hz in Nvidia Profile Inspector and created a Custom ...

Re: CPU usage and Frame Limiter

I have tried every setting combination possible to find the "best" experience I could. I guess "best" would be a relative statement. For me I prefer a steady framerate over anything else with as much additional eye candy as possible. When I run with unlimited frames in Prepar3D I...

CPU usage and Frame Limiter

I came across some information that I though might be helpful to others in this forum. I installed Prepar3D v3.35 recently and ran into the same issue I have been having with v3.x. Namely, Core 0 on the CPU (Intel i7 4810QM - Quad Core) was always at 100 percent usage. I seem to have found a "f...
