Giving up for now

After too many hours spent getting this thing to work I am giving up for now till I can afford a new system.
System specs are a little dated but only have problems with Microsoft Flight Sim 2020. Running Windows Pro edition, Intel i-5 6600k running at 3.5, 16 gig DDR3 and Nvidia GTX1060 6gb.

Game starts out ok with 35 to 40fps then after a couple of minutes cycles between 2 to 30 fps making it useless to try and fly. I have set everything to low turned off airplanes , cars boats ect. done all the recommended settings to no real avail. Will be going back to X-Plane 11 which runs with no problems.

have you tried a nvidia driver reinstall or roll back? I would suggest that if you havent tried it. Clean install.

I have the exact same cpu and gpu only difference i have 32 gig rams. I cant quite get it to ultra, but it sure run nice on high.

Make sure to have your drivers updated, especially graphics drivers.

OP, are you using Windows 64 bit?
Are you using an SSD?

I have the nearly the same system and had the same problem. This is the fix https://www.reddit.com/r/flightsim/comments/idmdqq/update_msfs_2020_stuttering_when_window_focused
