I agree. You can see the Scenery load and the chuging begains. Smooth for a little bit then chuging begins again.
By the way are you on DX11 or DX12? It looks like they chanded something in the CPU usage which for me makes DX11 useless. Unless you like a slideshow every 5 seconds. DX12 fixes about 80 percent of it for me.
I have a $5k rig. 4090, 13900k, 128 gb ram, part of that is a RAM drive for the Rolling Cache, which I would recommend. Before the update it was butter smooth at 300 LOD Terrain. Everything else on Ultra, DLSS on quality. I was getting over 60fps IN VR!
Using DX12 now and my FPS is 45. It still chugs once in awile. This is on a gigabit connection. Did they change something in the sim to make XBOX run better? Who knows, but i see way more pop up loading scenery, and the processor use is up overall. I changed no settings on my end.
The pop up destroys Immersion, and slows down the the scenery loading. If i fly in an area with no photo geometry its smooth again, and FPS go back up. Whatever they did, it ruined DLSS performance for me and created this pop up! At 300 LOD there shouldnt be pop up right off the nose of the aircraft. Although i have seen similar pop up on the Xbox. Hmmmm.
The pop up makes it feel like a video game from the 90’s. How they didnt see this happening in the PC Beta is beyond me. It happend to me in the beta, and I reverted Immediately. Thought they would fix that before they released the update. Guess not.
