If you are using 4k DLSS maybe try performance mode which should still look good although some instruments might be blurry. Otherwise use 1440p and let your monitor upscale it. Ultra settings shouldn’t really be a problem with your 11GB of vram but try not to run the gpu at 100%. If that means a cap then so be it.
That helps me a lot to start trying different settings from there.
Thanks again for taking your time ! Cheers

with a 1080TI ? 
But he can reduce the renderscale to max wqhd, as you mentioned… and set a max fps limit.
true … I forgot it’s not an rtx
And I think there’s still NIS and DSR possible
he not need DSR, the 1080TI is not really ready for 4K and so also not for higher resolutions. I can easy max-out my 2080TI with a not-full-4K setting and 30fps. NIS ( Image Scale ) may help, but is usually nothing else as the in-game scale, just with an additional sharpening filter. So, I would try whether really a diff of NIS and in-game scale exist 
But whether this fix the issue from @Bodobear70 ,… may be… I assume most important is the fps max setting of 30 ( if the 1080ti not need also 100% to reach that ). And of course, the former mentioned stuff like play with HAGS on/off, etc…

I used a 1080 ti with 4k for the longest time and that was set with everything at ultra, pre su 5 I would get 25-30 smooth, after su 5 but before the ‘hotfix’ I was up to 35, after the hotfix I could only manage a lowly 26 fps at best, though locking it at 20 fps and leaving the reset of the settings I couldnt tell any difference between the two.
Now Im on a 3060ti and can get 34 to 40 but that comes with the studders, If I back it down to 25 it seems fine. In the early morning late at night I can turn off vsync and get the 34 to 40 again smooth.
It really seems that server/network function play a very large part in fps as well.

pretty sure… but we try only to reduce the load on its system, so that ,with a bit luck, he no longer get the error dialog

It´s very nice you are trying to help me with my graphic card error.
I locked the fps to 30 in the nvidia control panel and set the resolution in the sim to 1440p with settings to “ultra”. how can I see. HAGS should be off right ? vync is on, my monitor doesn´t have g-sync.
How do you guys check your graphic card status and FPS during the sim ? Got another freeze when I tried to activate the developer mode in the settings 
If you have problems with the Developer Mode, you can always try the XBOX Game Bar. There’s a Performance Monitor option in it that works pretty well. “Windows key - G” activates it. A screen shot follows:

Generally though the built in FPS counter from Developer mode in game works fine.
I’ve had the same problem as evryone else since the 40th Anniverary update. I’m running a 12th Gen i7-12700KF with 32Gb of RAM with an Nvidea RTX3070ti GPU. I haven’t had any problems with it at all up until now. Today I installed the latest update from the installation manager and after the update Now I keep getting this new error and MSFS won’t run at all! Talk about frustrating. Has anyone else been getting this error:
The problem now is that I can’t update the program because it won’t even start. Do I have to do a clean install. I hope not
Yu should be able to update MSFS from Steam or the MS Shop or one of the Xbox apps in Windows, possibly the game bar.
Yeh - I’ll try from the xbox app in windows. I hope I don’t have to download everything again !
For me when I try to activate Developer Mode a warning message box pops up with a “don´t show again” checkbox but i can´t click anything with the mouse. Have to close the sim manually.
I just tried it and as you described a dialog box popped up warning developers not to develop new things for the marketplace with this version of MSFS. I clicked “Don’t show again”, moved on and my mouse continues to work normally.
Sounds like it might be a glitch in your system.
Are you using an increased resolution?
Yes. 2880 x 2160 with DLSS (quality), my 32" HDTV does an excellent job of downscaling it to it’s erstwhile native 1080p . Performance is about the same as 1080p TAA but with a better than 1440p picture. Even recording isn’t a problem as OBS can downsize it on the fly.
DLSS + DLAA does much the same thing but to my eyes the texture filtering is considerably inferior on larger 1080p monitors.
Just trying to see if Bodobear70 has the same issue is all.

Hi Salem, I could get into the Developer Mode just switching into windowed mode and return to fullscreen after activating.
Thanks for the help !
I´m running the sim with my 1080Ti now in locked 30fps / 1440p in Ultra settings. Seems like the graphic card error is gone for now.
In the FPS activity window from the developer mode my graphic card is using only 4gb of the 11gb gpu ram. Maybe I can chose any higher setttings like higher locked fps or higher resolution until the graphic card is getting to the max ? Anyway everything is looking nice now and playable in 30fps.
Sorry Salem … I was obviously half asleep
