FSDT Airports
mpochylko:
Are 6-9 FPS good? at most FSDT airports?
I noticed the 2d panel gives me an increase of 5fps, 3d is bad.
What am I doing wrong and can someone work with me to increase performance?
Intel I7 860 2.8ghz
8 core processor
gtx 970 gpu
8gb mem
win 7 64 bit

Nobody ever reported fps so low. There's something seriously wrong in your FSX installation and/or settings. Most likely, you have problems with your video driver. Usually, the 2d panel should be the slowest, which confirms you have video drivers issues.
Try to reset your video driver to all default settings. And reset your FSX settings to default too, by removing the %APPDATA%\Microsoft\FSX\FSX.CFG file.
Also, be sure you do not run FSX in a "Compatibility" mode (like Windows XP mode under Windows 7/8/10), because this will force the video drivers to go into a reduced performance mode.

I would try to overclock your CPU higher or upgrade to an Ivy Bridge or higher. Any K model Intel CPU that can be overclocked is best.

This definitely does not seem like a CPU issue. I'm running multiple FSDT airports on FS9 and P3D on a Sandy Bridge CPU (Core i5-3570K, 16GB memory, Radeon R9 290 GPU, also running Windows 7 64bit), and I'm getting well over 30FPS in P3D (and near 100 in FS9). CPU shouldn't be the problem, as mine is well underpowered than the Core i7 the OP is using. Something else is the problem here.
How many FSDT airports are being used? any other scenery near or around the airport? Could only 1 FSDT airport be activated and see if the same problem exists? More troubleshooting needs to be done here.

The 3570K is an Ivy Bridge - it's 2 generations ahead of his and as far as FSX/P3D go, they don't use Hyperthreading - the only difference between the i5 and the i7. I have the 3570K running in one of my systems at 4.5Ghz and it's a solid processor. If he's running his 860 at stock speed (2.8Ghz), then a bump in clock speed would do him wonders.
