At the End of My FSX Rope............

Well, my BIOS is updated and went to EVGA to get the settings for my board. Everything seems to be working so far. Only one same problem, the scenery gets jumpy every now and then. It'll start to pause, sometimes stop but it continues without completely locking up.

Anyone else with a Q9450 what kind of RAM are you running?

Thanks to everyone! I'm almost enjoying FSX now.........give it a bit more time.......I hope I'm not disapointed!:icon_lol::engel016:
 
Hey Mud, Glad to hear that it's getting better. Have you run Prime95 or Intel Burn Test since changing your BIOS settings? You'll want to do that, especially if you changed the timing on your RAM. Keep an eye on your core temps when you do...

I run 4x1Gb of Corsair 1600, and use the Corsair recommended 9-9-9-24 timing. Corsair recommends 1.8v for my sticks, but I'm running at 1.9v and it's a lot more stable. In cruising the EVGA forums, it seems like a lot of 9450 users are using either Corsair or Patriot RAM, and having good results...

DDR2, so I can't help with specific settings.

Anyways, I wouldn't say it's the CPU. Stick to the Ram and listen to CactusKid. Giving the sticks 0.1V more wouldn't hurt, I guess.
