I think I use DxTory to limit the fps (works with DX10) You can also record video etc with it. Not 100% sure tho, not at home and I must have left my memory at home aswell, hehe.

So now we're complaining that we have too many fps?

60 fps is good enough for me and I enjoy a silent computer instead of a jet engine in my case

Now I can enjoy those placeholder sounds in external view!1!!

mate ur lost....fps limiter is good when you have big variation from lowest to highest fps...so lets say refresh rate of your screen is 60Hz, you can reach high fps values, so if you set fps limiter to 60 ull have smoother gameplay overall.....got it?

I just don't like seeing my graphics card's temp rise to 85c.

And the fan noise is terrible.

Rise of Flight has a frame limiter that works perfectly. It keeps my card cool so the fan doesn't have to.

Have you checked your fps in the FMB, should be quite high with your system?

It gets way up there but its not causing heat issues on my 6970... seems that the nVidia cards are having more issues with that in this game that ATI at the moment.

There is a program called, fortuitously for this thread, FPS LIMITER. It is pretty old, but it might work with this game and might achieve the desired results as a stop-gap until other, official fixes are implemented. It can be located with a Google search. I will try it, anyway, and see if it works.

Nah, old program, doesn't work with DX10, DXTORY (free version) does work, but somewhat a moot point since the new patch enables VSync. Although with DXTORY you can limit your FPS to whatever you want.
