Hi, many of you are asking often what is my PC specification and what tweaks I am using.
Well, I decided to write it down here so everyone can see it and I do not answer for that questions every time. ;-)
Finding the best results with this config and tweaks which are working now took me a many hours.
Special thanks goes to Paul, who is a tweaking geek, and he explained how fsx config works. The other person who I would like to thank is a guy called "cvearl" (from avsim forum) who found good CCC setup (for similar GPU but it works with mine too) and to many other people from FSX community who I do not remember from name, but their remarks where very useful.
As a result of these tweaks, I'm able to gain around 15-25 fps with PMDG's 777.
15 FPS isn't a great score but even with this value I can smoothly turn camera inside VC or outside the plane, without any stuttering.

Other tweaks:
If you're using PMDG's 777 or 737 series, change FPS settings (via FMC) of displays on both sides (FO and CO) to values showed below.
It should give you some extra fps. In my case it is from 3 to 7 and removes any stuttering in both views (inside VC and outside aircraft).
15 / 8 / 0 / 0 fps
