New PC and new install but horrific frame rate

I’ve just got a new PC and installed MSFS2024. As of yet nothing has been added except the MSFS2024 updates yet the frame rates are horrific (up to 3 or 4 seconds to react to any input)

I’ve set everything to basic but still the same.

My system is as follows..Device name Flying
Processor AMD Ryzen 7 7700 8-Core Processor (3.80 GHz)
Installed RAM 32.0 GB (31.1 GB usable)
Device ID B62B39A1-420F-45E3-8D7C-F4B58576E0DC
Product ID 00342-21627-66373-AAOEM
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
Pen and touch No pen or touch input is available for this display

My old PC is 12 years old yet runs so much better! I have exhausted everything I can think of so any help/ tips/ advice would be more than welcome.

Many thanks

Moved out from Sim Update 5 Beta | MSFS 2024 to User Support Hub that is more appropriate for community support and since not SU5 Beta related.

What happens if you swap out the touch display?

Notably you seem to be missing a dedicated Graphics Card. There’s no mention of it in the hardware report.

Without a graphics card, it is a surprise it even runs at all.

Not really. I have my monitor plugged into the onboard GPU (9950x), and my VR headset plugged into my 4080 Super. The sim runs just fine on the internal GPU.

Well, without more information, it’s harder to point to likely root cause. One thing that trends a lot is if it’s an Nvidia RTX card and the user is relying on the full GeForce Experience/Nvidia App driver, the program is making decisions about graphics performance and quality that can detract from the sim. But without an idea of the GPU, that’s just a guess…

That is very surprising as the onboard GPU is rather slow and uses very slow memory. Something does not line up. It almost sounds like you have the two ports mixed up, I know that sounds weird, but it would totally explain everything.

LOL. Sorry, this is off topic. No mistakes. 2D settings on FSR Balanced. VR settings on DLSS Quality. Works perfectly.

The Radeon Integrated Graphics on the 9950X has 2GB VRAM.
I’d bet big money you can’t run the sim on the monitor attached to it.
Maybe other apps, but not MSFS. :rofl:

So the question remains: What GPU is OP using?

Good think I didn’t take that bet. Turns out the Sim uses the 4080 Super but displays on the monitor via the onboard Displayport. I’m not sure how that happens. The mystery continues.

So you need to take the hdmi cable that is plugged into the on board 9950x gpu and plug it into the back of the 4080. :+1:

The motherboard has integrated graphics in the BIOS. It’s all done by the CPU.

I was curious about the power of that GPU compared to dedicated GPUs so I did a search.

The integrated graphics of the Ryzen 7 7700 is a Radeon 610M. Compared to a 4080 and to the 4050 laptop GPU the G3D (Passmark) benchmark results are:

Radeon 610M: 1220

GTX 4050: 14306

GTX 4080: 34436

As said, no way that runs MSFS.

Correct. I always start SteamVR before starting the sim. So, when I looked at Task Manager, I always assumed SteamVR was using the 4080. You guys made me think twice about it. I have the iGPU disabled now with all connections going to the 4080. It’s a waste of resources the other way.

Thank you so much for replying. I’d not even noticed the GPU wasn’t being recognized by the system so I’ve been in touch with the company I got the PC from and they are going to ensure it is running as it should.
