Newest SU4 beta release runs significantly worse then the first one

Just wanted to share some feedback on the SU4 beta performance difference between the two builds.

  • First release (Sept 8th): Absolutely phenomenal – smooth performance, very solid FPS.

  • Second release (Sept 10th): Noticeably worse. FPS in the same scenarios is significantly lower, plus I experienced a CTD and more stuttering, even at EHRD airport.

My system specs:

  • CPU: 7800X3D

  • GPU: 7800XT

  • RAM: 64GB

It honestly feels a bit like SU3 again—not terrible, but definitely a step back compared to the first SU4 beta build.

Has anyone else noticed these performance regressions between the two beta updates?
