As I mentioned in a previous post, I have spent considerable time sifting through all the latest recommendations for configuring MSFS since the release of SU10. Since then there have also been later releases to Win 10/11 as well as GPU driver updates.
Let me state first and foremost. I don’t care about pushing FPS beyond 30. My goal is to completely eliminate the stutters, jitters, and CTDs.
Despite my running counter to several recommendations elsewhere, I have found that in my system today, turning both Gaming Mode and Hardware Acceleration “ON” are VERY beneficial in eliminating even the slightest jitteriness. I don’t know why and I don’t really care - maybe because I am also running DX12 for the first time. I’ve had them both off for most of the past 2 years. All I know is that in my system, below, it performs much smoother with them turned on.
