Also then I see ProcSpeed=2000 and PerfBucket=6 which I have deleted and keeps on coming up ?
Maybe someone can help me with these two issues, should I delete my cfg file I don't know what to do
Would greatly qappreciate any help on these two issues, and one other thing if I would delete my cfg file does that effects sp1 as well, cuase I know after a flight it makes one up

after the tweek is in the cfg file and even after I take a short flight 10 minutes or whatever, I check cfg file and the tweek is gone.
It's like a hoodini trick, here it is, here I am not
Why this happening I have no diea maybe some suggestions or has this happened to anybody else? I've used other tweeks and they don't disapear?
very strange

Its come to my attention that various people and forums are suggesting tweaks to the ProcSpeed and Perfbucket values in the config file.
Folks, I hate to tell you, but this is the placebo effect.
We generate those numbers at startup and use them to set the default slider values.
PerfBuckets range from 1-7 and correspond to Minimal, Very Low, Low, Medium Low, Medium High, High, Ultra High.
Procspeed is generated by some code we run on the CPU, to help bucket your CPU.
The procspeed and information about your graphics hw contributes to your default PerfBucket setting. Customizing your settings moves you out of the default PerfBucket setting, but there is no "number" for that.
They are not used beyond default settings, and we do not "read" the values back out of the config - they are "write only". We use them internally in our labs as extra verification of hw, there is no use in changing them. If you think that changing them is doing something, its not.
By Gary Summons:
Gary Summons reports that adding
[DISPLAY.Device.xxx.0]
MipBias=6
To your fsx.cfg file reduces or eliminates the blurries especially with photo-scenery
Note: xxx is whatever your fsx.cfg shows for your graphics config.
I have seen people try values of 4-7 with varying success as well.
Thanks to weeniemcween on avsim.com, if this tweak induces shimmer in the trees, there are 2 things to try:
1) nhancer nvidia control panel, turn supersampling on ( ati must have an equivalent, I just don't know it )
2) if the 4x4 overdraw from 1 is killing your perf, try setting "Negative LOD BIAS" to "Clamp" rather than "Allow"

I don't know what this tweak does to performance or anything else, it should reduce blurries it says. Do you even have problems with blurries? If not, you might not deal with it and leave it the way it is... I had a lot of problems with BANDWITH_MULT so i just keep it the way it is and not deal with it...much better for my nerves

One thing I already I noticed a difference is that when I was in the Vc the last few days it was jerky stuttering now its smooth.
I also defrag as well but I wil get back to theis MipBias=4 hopefully today maybe its fixed.

first pic before flight put tweek in its there, after flight GONE, what is up with this, I mean any other tweek that I do in my cfg file never get changed this is really confusing. I wonder if anybody else is having the same issue, you can see that I am putting it in the right place of cfg file man i don't get this one.its in here before flight
now itsd gone after flight
