    Hello. A real person with real PC specs here. I was lucky to get access to MSFS 2024 during the alpha weekend. I am "rocking" i7 8700, 32GB and RTX 3070. Non VR performance was good, no issues. Loading times excellent (on my 1Gb internet connection). I am using Quest 2 for my MSFS 2020 VR . There is a lot of room for improvement there but there are some good days depending on Windows 11 and NVIDIA driver updates . If non-VR MSFS 2024 is any indication I should be safe for next 2 years. I will definitely upgrade my PC during 2026/27 season.
    Forgot to mention, I preordered 2024. :-)

      @@kovo313 that’s great to hear! I’ve got a very similar rig so was wondering how MS2024 would work. I get 60 odd fps currently on MS2020, so anything above 35fps on the new sim I’d be happy !

      VR user with i7 1270 here with 32GB RAM and 12GB 3080. Recently upgraded my Quest 2 to a Pimax Crystal Light. Massive visual improvement. Cannot run it at full resolution, but I have given DLSS the flick, and have lowered my settings to allow me to use TAA. It has massively changed my flying experience as I can now read the PFD and the MFD. So it has inspired me to finally learn the G1000 autopilot functionality. I am feeling like my pilot skills and knowledge are progressing, and I am doing that with an eye to career mode in MSFS 2024. The new headset also has a lot of room to improve when I am able to upgrade my GPU with the 5000 series.
      The Quest 2 was my first VR headset and it served me well, but the increase in visual quality and stability from a VR headset with a display port is massive. If you use VR for simming mostly i recommend the PCL (although be prepared to purchase comfort items). If you are more of a VR gamer, probably the Quest 3. But at present it is your headset holding you back for MSFS. Have a good day.

      The multithreading helps with CPU, not GPU.
      World and object LOD was already a great way of alleviating any CPU issues.
      I'm more curious how/if/whether the Foveated rendering or any other changes will help with hitting a consistent 72fps without DLSS or adding more instrument blur.

    • @theVRpilot
      @theVRpilot  19 часов назад

      Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for upgrading the CPU, but the GPU upgrade won’t translate in double fps performance.
      It’s kind of weird.
      Simplest way I can put it is the extra overhead or cuda cores, does help. 4090 performance is better, but not always worth the price and won’t be double.
      If you are aware and ok with that then no sweat.
      I just want folks to have realistic expectations.
      MSFS VR is the “will it run crysis” of our current times followed by DCS VR.
      It’s demanding especially when trying to push high pixel headsets, but still totally worth it for the full immersive experience.

    A cautionary tale for current and prospective Meta Quest VR headset owners (for sim'ing or gaming):
    I'm on day 21 of Meta holding my Quest headsets hostage. I've been using Oculus/Quest devices from the day they started making them (10 years ago?), and I have not been required to give my date of birth to Meta in all this time. But they recently demanded my DOB under threat of disabling my Quests, and they made good on that threat 21 days ago. Meta can metaphorically brick your headsets, any time they want, and for any reason they want, and you will have no defense against it.
    Conclusion: Think carefully before you BUY anything from Meta; The thing you BUY will not be yours.

    35-50 FPS VR for most aircraft using Q3 @ 72Hz and 90% scaling through Q3 settings.
    Most times when my FPS are throttled, my XR toolbox says my CPU is the bottleneck for which I'm hoping multithreading in MS24 should relieve.
    Understanding that the Alpha version we previewed a couple of weekends ago was quite pared down from what we'll expect in the release, I'm pretty hopeful I'll be ok in VR at least without mods added.

    • @theVRpilot

      I think you’re on the edge but the key is here how is your experience and are you able to enjoy it with your current hardware?
      If the answer is yes then great! There will always be a new headset to get, new Intel CPU, new GPU or new tech.
      I think it’s important to understand that is not always about chasing the latest hardware or the highest fps.
      Sounds like you have a good grasp of your hardware and settings and that is 90% of the battle. The last 10% is stop tweaking and go fly and have fun.
      I think 2024 will be less of a Microsoft settings simulator than 2020 lol. Still some tweaking, but I hope a bit less.
      If I was to upgrade anything in your case would be the GPU only during Black Friday or after 5000 series drops, but for now keep the blue side up!

      I too have an older i7 9700k OC to 5.0 with 32GB ram and it had a RTX 2080. That is exactly how I started this channel.
      Then I upgraded to the 3090, which didn't really do what I wanted in MSFS 2020. The 4090 definitely pulled its own weight and was what I expected the 3090 to do, but this is honestly because MSFS 2020 was not supporting Multi Threaded CPU so performance was left on the table.
      I think you should have a decent experience in MSFS 2024 with 2D, but I do not think VR would be so kind.
      Excited to hear how your experience is as the biggest take away for me was the quick load times and SMooooooooooth flights.

    Thanks 4 the mention :-) Yes, It's official or will be after the 1st review of the AMD Ryzen 7 9800 X3D will crush any other CPU on the planet. So if peeps have 10th gen Intel or ZEN3 and want to upgrade, AM5 X870E & that top crown gaming / simming CPU 9800 X3D is the best choice. My Ryzen 9 5900X on AM4 X570E came trully alive for the first time with MSFS2024 Alpha and all 12 real cores without any lazy ones like intel has boy the sim went much faster on my current setup so if your MSFS2020 runs ok or great then it will only run better in MSFS2024. I have 32GB RAM so I'll test and see before going to 64GB... I have Fiber speed internet so 1Gbit download and 40Mbit upload and yes saw peaks of +38GB total download in the Alpa that I did not notice because of my super speed internet but if peeps are slow I think they will have to get a faster connection if possible. Jorg did mention MSFS2020 will stay around for peeps with terrible internet for that reason...

VR sucks azz with MSFS2020 so I might get back into VR with MSFS2024.

      Welcome my friend!
      Ok, so I can’t verify prices for you but I will answer your question.
      Is this GOOD? Oh yes! It’s very good!
      Can you go better? Yes, a bit.
      Is it necessary? Well, not really but what I can say is this.
      The main improvement you could do would be upgrade the GPU to a 4090.
      That will likely double the cost of the entire build.
      There are diminishing returns as you go higher because it will not double your FPS but for many hardcore VR simmers we want the best and the most of our VR experience so we splurge on that.
      Alternatively a 4080 super would be great as that is what Microsoft used at the world preview event I attended in Arizona.
      Again, 4090 is close to $2k and what you have there is great.
      Also consider if you plan to enter VR you need to buy that too!
      I consider the Quest 3, Pimax Crystal Light, Big Screen Beyond, and Somnium VR1 some of the best headsets on the market and that covers all budgets.
      Each has pros and cons.
      I do not have a video comparing them but if you check VR Flight Sim Guy on youtube, my buddy Steve absolutely does!
      Keep me posted on what you decide!
      I’m excited for you and plan to make a video welcoming Xbox users.

Until then everyone should wait to see what their experience will be like and not take any notice of such videos from people such as yourself who don't know what anyone else's experience will be like.

      It is a simple reply to a simple legitimate question for people who might be considered simpletons (new to MSFS) with a simple need to know. Do you know the difference between simple and idiotic?

      No fluff, no adds, nothing crazy just answering a simple question here
      I run this community with 10k members, my discord, and a Facebook group with 11k members.
      I chose to answer a question that is coming up spot from folks that may not be as wise as you, so while you don’t need this video, it has helped many, and I’ve seen many ask the same question.
      I’m just here sharing some (hopefully) gods and helpful information.
      And I really don’t know if you watched the whole video because you and I both agree on what to do…, I said what you said, which again isn’t common knowledge to all the new simmers joining this great hobby.
      But seriously, did you even watch the video? Lol

      @@theVRpilot No, I didn't watch the video, as I already said I don't need anyone to tell me whether I should upgrade or not, I'll find that out on November 19th. And it doesn't need wisdom to work that out.
