Link to FS2020 guide Here is a detailed analysis of each graphics setting’s visual and performance impact in FS2024. This guide is supposed to help you make decisions on visual impact versus CPU / GPU impact in the simulator. Note that situational and hardware differences results can result diff…

thanks for pointing this out - i should have tested with more light sources and will do so whenever i have time i rushed this guide out within 24 hours as i have final exams for my university coming up in a two weeks

Great guide! Thank you for making this. QQ - for Anisotropic filtering, it was suggested to have it as “OFF” in MSFS and “16X” in nVidia Control Panel for MSFS 2020. Should the same be followed for MSFS 2024?

Did anyone ever try the dynamic FPS option and see if it was working, and what impact it had to graphics quality vs. fps? That was a much requested feature, but is it actually working?

It’s working, but it’s heavily depended on the specific system (CPU and GPU), so you cannot measure it.

[image] TheOriginalBabu: I did find that the sim has a bug that randomly cripples performance whenever it likes, I’d go from 60 down to 10-20 for no apparent reason. GPU usage would be pinned at 100% and would appear to be the bottleneck This is exactly what I am experiencing and cannot find…

Don’t know if that was directed at me, but VRAM is not my issue. I have spare VRAM in this situation (it’s about 60-80% usage on VRAM only). This is GPU processor exclusively.

i havent tested NVCP AF in this regard, but i predict it will make negligible difference to performance and quality

I know you’re a veteran on this forum, but have you looked in the dev fps counter, specifically GPU Mem, at the bottom showing what is allocated vs what is available? What do you see when the sim grinds to a halt?

I have not yet - but I am looking at VRAM and GPU Usage using other tools and I can say for sure it is not anything to do with lack of available VRAM on my card. What I see is just a significant but constant performance drop. Drops to low 20’s to low 30’s FPS, but it is still ‘consistent’ if you kn…
