I share with you 2 videos that shows you how good 7800 x3d is good. As FS 2020 is cahs hunter and some addons (like HWD A330) can go up and down drastically, we need to comapre 1% low FPS more than average.
7800 x3d beat easily in 4 k (+27 fps in exterior view and +23 fps in interior) and give similar performance in 8k vs 7950 x3d. All of this performance seems related to that 8 cores are fully dedicated to gaming and we have more 3D v cache per core. The most amazing thing is that 7800 x3d use only 18% to 23% of its capacity so yous till have plenty core to fill up for addons (FSTL, FBW, HDW, navigraph, VatSim)
I will make soon full build based on 7800 x3D and RTX 4090 and will update.
Until dream come true, enjoy videos.
Finalyā¦ my upgrade is completed, and wow now I can see what a great headset the Reverb G2 really is. With High resolution textures, fluidity and clarity. This i the way to go.
Glad I made the decision to make āhopefullyā the final upgrade, maybe
Good afternoon. Spend and hour reading topics related to Ryzen CPUs, but didnt find the exact answer. Which of the 3 is the best one: 7800X3D, 7900 X3D or 7950 X3D? Assuming i have RTX4090 and plan to fly not a vanilla sim, but to use the external mods like traffic, planes, sceneries weather (if needed)? I do not plan flying in VATSIM atm.
I would definitely get the 7950x3d, especially since you have the RTX 4090 as the sim will most likely mainly be CPU limited with that GPU. I also have the 7900x3d paired with a RX7900xtx and the additional 3d cache is wonderful!
Have got my new PC last week. Ryzen 7800X3D + Radeon 7900XT. Great performance on 4K and High End in MSFS.
Even the FSLTL traffic in EDDF cannot bring this combination to its knees.
First of all I considered the RTX 4090 as well. But now I am happy to have saved the money for that beast
Anyway, absolutely nothing wrong with 7800X3D
Oh, excellent choices!! The 7900XT is a perfect match for the 7800x3d for both 1440p & 4K. Going with AMD on the gpu not only saved you a lot of but also will work well with the sim since the Xbox gpu is AMD based. There is a reason why you constantly see posts that have a high end 4000 series gpu but their fps are terrible!
I have 7800x3d + 4090 + 64gb ram. Iām running the sim just fine on ultra settings and navigraph, Volanta, V Pilot for Vatsim, GSX all running in the background. Runs perfectly fine and smooth 99% of the time. Big airports like JFK and LAX youāll get the occasional stutters when fast panning the camera, but youāll get that anyway regardless of the CPU you have.
Iāve been away from simming since XP10 and am looking to buy a new PC very soon.
At my price point Iām debating between a 7800x3d w/ 4090 or a 7950x3d w/4080. Iāve been reading and debating since around Christmas and could use some help from this excellent thread.
I plan on flying VATSIM, PMDG/Fenix, Navigraph etc. Also plan on one 4k display initially and maybe 1x 4k with 2x 1440 in the future. Any strong opinions?
You really canāt go wrong with either combination, however, the sweet spot for the sim is the 7800x3d cpu. If your budget can afford it the 4090 will work great for a multi-monitor set up and if down the road you want to dabble in VR.
If you have other performance hungry programs like Photoshop or video encoding Iād recommend going with the 7950x3d.
So it is also a choice of cards.
Personally, I favor the combination with the higher end card, not just for the increase in raw performance: the additional GPU Ram is significant.
If I had to make that decision, I would take the 7800X3D and the higher end GPU with more graphics memory.
So I am curious if anyone has some good advice/recommendations for settings with my setup. I struggle to get good FPS with top of the line hardware (or so I think). I get maybe 15-25 FPS in normal settings with PMDG 737 in medium size cities/airports (DEN,MDW, STL, etc.). I cannot seem to find the āsweet spotā for settings in MSFS, NVCP.
My MSFS settings are:
Display mode: Full screen
Render Scaling: 100
Resolution: 3840x2160
AntiAliasing: TAA
Frame Generation: On
Vsync: On and off (i play with this setting a lot to try and figure out what is best)
Frame Rate limit: 33/50/100 (I play around with this a lot to try and figure out what works best when Vsync is on)
HDR: On
DX12: On
Terrain Level of Detail: 385 right now, but I have brought it down to 200 to see if it has an impact. Itās usually minimal.
Most other MSFS settings are ultra.
Here are my hardware specs:
CPU: AMD 7900x3d
GPU: ROG Strix RTX 4090
Motherboard: x670E-A
Memory: 32GB DDR5 running at 6000mhz
Monitor: Alienware 32" 4K QD OLED 240hz
All updated to latest versions/drivers (bios, gpu driver, windows, chipset, etc.)
My problem is that I canāt find the right combo of settings between MSFS and NVCP to make it awesome.
I feel like I have bought the top of the line hardware for this game, but either my expectations are too high, or my settings are. Any advice? Anyone have this exact setup?
Iāve got the same set up except for the gpu - I have a 7900XTX (click on my gamer pic to see PC details). I have similar sim settings of 4k, HDR on, Tlod 200, Olod 175, frame gen on, FSR2 (quality), DX12 but vsync off. I also have a Samsung Qled TV with 120Hz refresh rate.
Just did a flight earlier this evening around Kona in the Hawaiian Islands in the Longitude and at 10k ft was doing 250-260fps. There was no add-ons, no weather and no ATC.
Itās not the PMDG 737 (I donāt have it) in a medium size airport but I agree you should be getting much more fps than 15-25 with your hardware.
Itās a journey and you WILL get there!
Btw there are tons of other simmers on this forum which have similar hardware and trying to optimize it so you should try and search for those posts - good luck!
There was a thread earlier, right after AM5 chips went to market, with performance issues on a brand new 7950X3D/4090 system with Windows preinstalled.
Long story short, after a lot of troubleshooting, a clean install of the Operating System resolved the issues.
Not saying this is your case necessarily.
However, anytime HW is upgraded significantly (CPU, board etc) a clean install is a must. Also, I would not trust a pre-installed OS, it is always better to start afresh on a new computer system.
Of course, if you performed a clean Windows install yourself on your high end system, it should not be needed.
Thank you for the reply and the welcome! Thanks for the positive mojo. I agree, I will get there eventually. I am going to search for others optimization suggestions. Itās a never-ending tweak finding the perfect settings, but itās part of my love for MSFS,
Thanks for the welcome and the reply. I just wiped my windows and started fresh a few days ago, and itās the second time Iāve done it since upgrading my system. Itās a great suggestion though, I remember reading about this issue with AM5 chips. I will break the code eventuallyā¦lol!
but also will work well with the sim since the Xbox gpu is AMD based. There is a reason why you constantly see posts that have a high end 4000 series gpu but their fps are terrible!
