If your frame rate is low, we have a few tips to consider:

1.
Be sure you use the latest drivers of your hardware.

2.
Our sounds are pretty big to get highest quality. But, some systems (others dont) get slower frames because of this. We made a special, low size, soundpack for this.

3.
Our textures are standard in 32 bit, highest quality. this can eat frames. So, we also offer a livery pack with DXT textures, lower size, yet still good quality.

If you want to use the VC, but the above two dont help, we have one other tip. You can reduce the size of the Virtual cockpit texture by resizing them to 512x512 pixels. This improves load time of the VC alot, and also boosts the fps in VC model (hardly affects exterior fps, perhaps 0.5 fps more or so).
One site affect though, the textures in the VC become less sharp, Most of the painted text will get a bit blurred so you can hardly read. But, the general view of the VC is still very nice.

CLS offers this reduced VC pack:

Another tip, found by Missi!

In the panel cfg [Vcockpit01]

[Vcockpit01]
Background_color=0,0,0
size_mm=512,512
visible=0
pixel_size=1024<----------------------------------Change this value to "512"
texture=$clsa3456b


Although VC CRT gauge resolution is going to bit lower quality, but FPS goes to much higher!

done
thanks for reporting

[Albert_Bouwman]

it sounds like a good system to me, but I let some others join in first to make final decision

[TrueLife_TrueFS]

that system will run the CLS a345/346 good,of course it's also depends on the display settings
mine is like 1/4 your computer and runs cls quite good(about 20 FPS)

My Computer Went Really slow with the defualt sound and Textures (and only the CLS textures were working ) But this got my Computer Running Fast Again!
