Nvidia resize bar

I see nvidia have announced soon to arrive support for MBs with configurable resize bars.

Any view whether that with have a benefit with FS2020, at least for those with 30?? Gpus?

FS2020 is CPU bound, so I’m not sure tbh. Maybe though, but I wouldn’t expect it

Shame, but perhaps not surprising. Thanks

This article says MSFS had worse performance with the configurable resize bars.

Now that a real shame

Not if you running a reverb G2 in VR

Are you saying the resize bar will have benefits for G2 users. That would be cool

It’s officially out now! just flashed my strix 3090 with the firmware as well as mobo

Did you notice any improvement?

flight simulator isn’t a supported game (for now) but the good news is i didn’t see any performance loss and or crash to desktop so that’s good!

I think it’ll be worth a try by forcing resizable BAR on using Nvidia inspector. In theory it should help with situations where you run out of VRAM and it starts swapping data in and out. This is unfortunately a regular occurrence when flying near cities at 4k with a 3080 (only 10GB).

I used the nvidia inspector to force resizable bar on for flightsimulator.exe - I only tested it in VR, but the results were not great. Probably lost 2 FPS or so off of around 30fps and worse it introduced “judder” that wasn’t there before.

FWIW.
