Thanks again Mark for taking the time and effort to upload this tutorial. I’m still using a 2070 but getting reasonable frames using your suggested settings. 🥳👍
I've tried the last AFMF 2.0 beta AMD drivers on this sim and this is woodoo sorcery. It doubles my FPS without much artefact troubles. My 7900xtx run faster than my 4090 !!
@@Patrick_AV Yes it works with all APU now (Vulkan) and you don't have to use only full screen, it uses VRR and there are less artefacts (in Xplane 12 and MSFS).
Thanks for your guide ! I run MFS2020 on a laptop (Asus Rog Strix G18 with I9 13gen 32 Go RAM and RTX 4090 laptop (8 Go VRAM ddr6) and I noticed that DLSS with DLAA and frame generation on is also a good compromise to get a clear image without losing to much FPS
Thanks for the video Mark. You gave me a few ideas on what to try in VR to make thing even better with my Reverb G2 (Crystal Light not here yet), I'm fairly new to MSFS, can't say I have much interest in learning all the intricacies of flying, if I fly a small plane myself, it's in "easy" mode with a Logitech Extreme 3D pro (yep, it's older than dirt LOL). What I do really much enjoy is using the A320 Neo (v1) and letting the AI autopilot fly the plane while I just look around. Too bad not all planes allow the AI autopilot to fly the plane, the new V2 of the Neo doesn't work, neither does the 747 or the A310. Some plane work, some don't. I am getting much enjoyment from MSFS this way, I'm actually a sim racer but this MSFS is a lot of fun in VR. LOL
In my Crystal I find the DLAA option looks better than TAA. Same sharpness pretty much but with much reduced jaggies looking across the ground while on the ground, fences, things like that.
So I see you are using DX12 with TAA I thought TAA works better with DX11 what do you use the most DX11 or 12? Of course, I only fly with the Pimax Crystal VR headset. So I should probably use dx 12
@@SimHangerFS Ya, since the latest msfs update and nvidia 552.44 together with dlss 3.7.20 dlss/balanced, with 1.20x ODT SS (to produce a TAA-like cockpit clarity), and forced 40fps, DX12 is now working very well with my QPro/rtx4090 using Link at 650mbps. I still find it best to disable win11 HAGS though. Not so much with msfs, but with other PCVR apps it still can be a bit unstable. Thanks for your useful tips mate and cheers.
TBMPilot736, do you think that Lossless Scaling thing would help me with my old gaming pc? I3, AMD 570, 24 ram, 1 tera hd....oh well...its still working ok.
If you use vr or look around a lot having off screen terrain pre catching to ultra will help stop dips when looking around as the off screen stuff will have already been loaded, so you actually lose performance on settings other than ultra. I have a powerful system so ymmv (4090 7800x3d) but on a powerful system ultra is the best for performance and experience (you won’t get pop in when you look around suddenly)
Nice video Mark; thanks for posting it. You started off with 35 FPS and ended up around 50. I’d be interested to know what would the FPS would had been with the RTX 4090 without doing an entire video on it. Thanks again.
Very useful video. For the Nameplates, in Options, Control Options, there is a TOGGLE NAMEPLATES command. You can set it to your keyboard, I have it set to CTRL / . Very useful and easy to toggle. Another thing: just recently, Intel admitted that their high end CPUs 13th and 14th gen Intel CPUs i9 have a problem and they can get damaged over time; some new BIOS update may come soon. You have an 19 14900K; are you aware about this?
8:50, under 'Change Resolution' - you could click the 'Use NVIDIA colour settings' and change the 'output dynamic range range' from 'Limited' to 'Full' to get 0-255 colours.
These settings are all with ref to monitor. Do these tweeks apply the same in the VR settings for us that dont use 2D? I have had a break flying DCS for a couple of months and MSFS is now a stuttering mess in Q3.
Great video Mark, do you have a video like this for those of us running a 4090 with a 1390ks or 1490? Will be setting up a Crystal Light soon and would love to know your settings in VR with a beefy system. I use an LG TV 120Hz, with sync and am just trying to get setup properly. Also what additional programs do you use with VR outside of Primax?
Thanks Mark, I am aware not everyone appreciates your videos unless it is specific about their system! That said I really do like ALL of your videos as you explain things slow and easy which is very very nice! Your work and advice is superb!
Mark, thanks for such an informative video. I am currently exploring the idea of migrating from my XBOX series X to a PC solution as I want to run a few 3rd party programs that you can’t run on XBOX at the same time. I was thinking of going for a wired2fire Valkyrie machine, but I have also seen a few vendors offering the spec (RTX4070 Ti Super) that you have demoed here. I’m starting to wonder if I need to go all out with the Valkyrie as it represents a significant investment when I possibly don’t need to as (like you) I’m predominantly a GA (low & slow) flyer as I like to enjoy the scenery along my route. I guess it’s a case of how deep your pockets are at the end of the day. Much food for thought here. I have bookmarked the video for future settings. Thanks once again.
Making the switch from XBOX X to PC for me was a massive upgrade in terms of immersion, if you're willing to invest in peripherals, scenery and aircraft of course. Freeware scenery is fun if you're on a budget and AI ATC software can add a lot of immersion too. Have fun which ever way you go!

Which VR headset you got? Ive tweaked the quest 3 for over a year. I almost got in 99% stutter free, but a new Q3 update screwed it all up again. You must use "auto-fps" for a start. That is sooooo essential.
If I go under 60FPS the Framerate meter blinks/goes red but I notice you are at 30-40 FPS and still in the green with a deep yellow graph. I wonder why? It does look smooth on the youtubes. Also I see your Alloc stuff in the framerate meter is blinking red. Do you have any idea what that means? In TAA you can run a lower res in the game and then simply upscale it using the Render Scale Option. 150 seems to be 1:1. I use 2640x1440 then 150 render scale to upscale back to 4k. I get the same quality but the GPU is being used more than the CPU. With a 4090 we have the over-head. This would even out your Main Thread and GPU Thread a lot.

Looking forward to an up to date VR settings guide.
Vsync can be useful with non variable refresh rate monitors where the game then syncs its frames to the monitor refresh and reduces screen tearing.

Splendid advice
Excellent again Mark!

You could still get low core fps/poor performance. Autofps mod addresses this quite well.
