For what it’s worth I have default settings in the NVCP except frames being capped at 40. Ingame, I have the default Ultra settings with DX11 and TAA 100% and Vsync on capped to 1/3rd monitor refresh (which I have set to 120). PG is off on account of being ugly.
My page file is 12GB which it was by default. It’s located on same SSD as OS and sim. MSFS does not seem to actually use the page file though (it seems to reserve/commit some memory from it, but never proceeds to actually use it).
HAGS is off.
I get strutter only on the ground really, especially when doing a quick 180 on TrackIR after spawning (especially on some custom airports). That being said, on account of personal preference, I don’t use tubeliners and large airports.
My system is i5 12400, 3070 Ti and 16GB CL 16 3800Mhz. So fairly similar with faster GPU (though I’m CPU bound when not capping frame rate, so there shouldn’t be a huge difference).
