You should try to display CPU usage per cores and not an average value which mean nothing. What I mean is I guess at airport one or more of your cpu cores are maximized so you’re now CPU limited. Another way is to turn ON the Debug Mode in MSFS menu and check the little windows. In the air I guess you will see “limited by GPU” and at airport “Limited by Mainframe”.

I could be wrong obviously but sound logical to me, so try it if you can…

Still getting really low GPU usage, it used to be constant 95-99% after flying an hour im getting 30-40% GPU usage, how unbelievably odd

Seems i have to turn render scaling up to 200% to get it to use the full potential of the GPU, i get no FPS increase it just increases the usage :S

Well im testing it now with HT turned off, i also set film grain to 0 in config, set render scale to 150%, and LOD in config to 5.0
