Can you use more cpu instead of gpu in msfs2020?

i am playing MSFS2020 on a laptop; but it has a very bad gpu but a quite good cpu. rendering scale is now at 30 and i got 2fps. so can i use a part of the tasks for the gpu on the cpu in msfs?

Welcome.

I know of no way to dynamically allocate tasks to the CPU and GPU.
You can adjust the settings in the sim to increase/decrease the usage of each.
The only other thing you might try is setting your CPU to run MSFS at High Priority. Do not set it to ‘Realtime’!

If you read through this article, you’ll see that the easiest method is temporary, i.e. when you restart your computer it will default back to its original setting.

You can create a batch file or a Powershell script that will set it, then run the batch or script on startup using Task Scheduler. Instructions for creating those files are also in that article.

This other one is so that it always runs in high priority MSFS 2020

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\FlightSimulator.exe\PerfOptions]
“CpuPriorityClass”=dword:00000003

Save to a text file as . reg (then just double click)

Excellent.

If I may, you should back up your registry before making any changes to it. If you make a mistake it’s possible Windows won’t start properly.

yes of course that always. but in this case it won’t hurt anything. if you want to remove that key just follow the path and delete it add it
