150fps+ In Microsoft Flight Simulator - RTX 4090 Thoughts On DLSS 3.0

[@MoMedia1]

Swap DLSS with TAA in the Anti-aliasing setting. You will still be able to use Frame Generation, but the sim will look even better! It's especially noticeable when you look at water.

Yup and the screens are much sharper. The frame rates were welcoming but those blurry screens I just couldn't do it. Nvidia is supposed to update DLSS 3 some time this year

[@sephiroth4543]

@user-ei7lz2mt5y 4080 is a solid card and at 1440p you would be stupid to get the 4090 unless all you do is VR gaming and even then the 4080 is a very strong card

[@4secsharkmr352]

Thanks for your video. The 4090 shines at higher resolution. Put the renderscale in Msfs to 130 or higher and you will see that the GPU gets over 50% and the FPS are rising. In VR I get 2 times more FPS than with my 3090. Msfs is by the way not CPU bound. The problem is that only a few cores are used. It is not very good in multithreading. But that has nothing do do with the performance of the 4090. That card is like a turbo engine. It needs higher resolution. For example in VR In normal TAA or DLSS mode it is likely as fast as a 3090. DLSS 3 is not really efficient ATM and you definitely see any difference while flying. For 2D flying the card is absolutely not necessary. But essentially for VR flying.

[@mikeydude750]

That still is a CPU bound, it's just a more difficult one to overcome as you can't just add more cores. Simulations just require high single-thread performance and large cache by the very nature of how they tie everything in to the simulation.

[@Frankestein01nl]

After you mentioned the usage of wattage, i noticed it actually went to 350+ watts multiple times over longer times. Yeah, it's a lovely card.... massively big and massively priced. And it still depends on the combo of MB, CPU and memory, as the game has always been. And thanks for the comparison video!!

[@ofon2000]

idk if it's overpriced...it's just out of my price range for sure. This is a top tier premium GPU! However 4080 and 4070 ti are def overpriced...

[@channelvr1293]

MSFS is absolutely the best visual game i have ever seen. (well google earth in VR comes close ) but i just use VR only, i think we still need much more power. Owning a 4090 now but cant wait to get my hands on a 5090 or even 6090 in 6 years. By then Unreal6 will make everything so foto realistic we wont be able to see the difference between VR and the real world. And 6 years is not long anymore ;-)

[@cmdrls212]

I got my 4090 last week and are super impressed. I get 100fps in atmospheric clouds at very high even in star citizen which is far more punishing on gpus than optimized games. The RTX4090 is just ridiculously fast.

[@rockyjetproject1345]

Just got my 4090 yesterday. Upgraded from a 3090ti and it’s phenomenal. I have it locked at 30 fps smooth as butter and everything on ultra except I have it on 300 instead of 400 for land detail but I have AI traffic on almost at 100 on everything and I’m at 4k monitor. Truly amazing . I fly PMDG .

[@simcptmike]

I have a 3090ti as well and I'm wondering what your card would be like on xplane 12. I don't use fs2020 not really a fan.

[@rockyjetproject1345]

@@simcptmike I don’t own xplane but I still have P3Dv5.3 installed, I don’t have the heart to uninstall it as FSX also. I did a flight on P3D and I was getting frames from 68-73 on the ground with almost all sliders max. Graphic wise it was maxed. I don’t know how xplane runs but FSX and P3d are very, very CPU intensive as is FS2020. I should have mentioned that I also got a 13 gen I9-13900k cpu. I had a 12th gen i9-12900k cpu and when I installed the card, the CPU was weak against the 4090 and it was bottlenecking the CPU. Now, with the 13th gen, it’s the opposite. The CPU is too powerful for the 4090 which is what we want that way the card can use it’s maximum capability graphic wise. Before the 13th gen upgrade, my card was at a cooling 42c, never got hot and I found that odd. Well, it turns out it wasn’t using its full capability because of the 12th gen CPU. I upgraded the 13th gen so that I could have 60fps lock and literally unlocked I get like 80fps on the ground and like 122-130 in the air but I lock my sims. If xplane is CPU intensive like past and present sims, your going to have to get the 13gen cpu along with the 4090. It’s like the 13gen was built for the 4090 and future GPU. It’s a powerhouse of a CPU and if I had great FPS with p3d, like no other time in flight sim history, I’m 99.9% sure xplane will run very very good especially since xplane is a newer program and coding than p3d and FSX. On MSFS2020, I did a test. Without AI generation and DX12 activated on fs2020 , regular DX 11 with TAA instead of DLSS 3and everything on Ultra maxed except terrain LOD I set at 300 instead of 400 even AI traffic with planes, airport vehicles, workers etc, I was running a smooth butter 30 fps locked. Now I have it locked at 60 fps and it’s smooth as butter. I also set p3d to 55 fps locked and it’s smooth as butter also. In short, I honestly think the 4090 will do wonders for xplane also but I recommend to get the 13gen cpu with it or if you use AMD, research which is equivalent as I do not know AMD. I recommend locking your fps also as it really really helps. This the is the build that gives me exactly what I want for flight sim and it’s not disappointing at all. Pricey but very very worth it. I won’t have to upgrade anymore for any flight sim payware add on , airports, planes until they make the new Microsoft simulator which will be in like 15-20 years. I only changed the cpu and the card, everything else stayed the same. These are my specs if it helps. 13th Gen i9-13900k Raptor Lake intel Zotac 4090 RTX MSI Z690 Force Wi-Fi Motherboard 1700 socket (same one used for the 12th gen i9-12900k) OLOY DDR5 RAM 32gb Kraken Z73 RGB water cooler Samsung 980 Pro 2tb SSD x 2 1300W Gold PSU Everything on this spec is 9 months old except the CPU and GPU, upgraded from 12th Gen i9-12900k to the 13th and the Zotac 3090 ti to the 4090. Also the 12th gen i9-12900k works very great hand in hand with the 3090ti

I think MSFS is a perfect use case for DLSS3 and it should only get better. Another, possibly better upgrade for it would be a serious improvement for the way it utilises CPU threads. Like you have already said it is seriously limited by CPU factors. It physically can't fully load your graphics card due to being hampered, both CPU and GPU load are less than 50%

[@DeepSkySimulations]

Thank you for this very insightful video. How is your experience at busy airports such as KJFK or EGLL, using third party airport addons, and using FSLTL with, e.g., 100 active IFR aircraft? Will MSI Afterburner with Frame Generation set to ON still show at least 60 FPS (maybe capped through V-Sync at 60 FPS)?

I bought a 4070. Despite being no where as powerful as the 4090 its is the best investment I have made for this sim along with the 5800X3D! I had an AMD GPU and that was problematic with X-PLANE 12. I'll be sticking with Nvidia moving forward!

A lot of movies show DLSS 3 and the frame boost it generates. Unfortunately, no one talks about the issues with DX12, DLSS 3, and Nvidia Frame Generation. When using aircraft such as the Fenix A320, PMDG 737, or even the JPLogistic Cessna 152, the scenery textures fall apart, particularly at airports. Fenix's technical support made it clear that they are aware of the issue, but it is due to DX12 (beta) and DLSS 3. I believe they are right about this. Additionally, DLSS 3's sharpness is far from what we get with TAA.

With the ever-rising cost of energy in the UK, I'm priced out of the higher-end GPUs even before the price of buying the thing comes into the equation. I simply cannot afford to game with high-end gear. I have to go with lower-end or mid-range gear that gets the most bang for it's buck. With that said, DLSS3 looks just the ticket for MSFS, and I'm seriously considering upgrading to maybe a 4060 from my current 3070 (pending reviews and benchmarks of course). I would not especially care if every other game saw very little improvement on a 4060 over my 3070. All I would really care about would be what DLSS3 did for performance in MSFS, both pancake and in VR. If a 4060 or 4060Ti could give me perhaps double the fps in MSFS using DLSS3, and could do it for minimal, if any, extra power draw than my 3070 currently is sucking, then I'm in.

the ghosting in "high terrain passing speed" situations (on ground level/ near ground level) is completely inacceptable for me , i have disabled this feature. also with gsync at ~70 fps to me it feels exactly as smooth as when i have ~150fps with framegen enabled. so no benefit but the artifacts as a big drawback. what some have said in the forums is that framegen introduces an input lag. i cannot confirm or deny this. but i guess it has to be tested with a very responsive flight model like the su-31 or the pitts s2s to notice a difference.

The thing I found that helps the most is turn that lens flare BS off. I'm looking at a 4090 myself, but I want the best 4090 money can buy though.

[@N7Trekkie]

If nvidia sends you a 4090 for a 15 minute video, I hope they keep it up. Good for you, congrats.

[@fungiplays2289]

What sort of cooling are you running to keep the 4090 from throttling down due to heat buildup? I just got a 3080ti and it's a pretty toasty beast even under minimal load

[@cmdrls212]

that looks like an FE card so I assume it is whatever the FE card has. There is a water cooled model from MSI if you can find it in stock.

[@timrashleigh2984]

The cooling in the 4000 series is far superior to the 3000 series. The 4000 run a lot cooler due to this than the 3000 series

[@Steve-tf1wv]

The cooling is overkill on the new nVIDIA cards. And, the chip is manufactured with a more efficient process. My 4080 runs cooler and uses less power than my old 3080 did, for example.

[@fungiplays2289]

@@timrashleigh2984 Too bad I didn't wait to get one from the new series

[@cmdrls212]

@@Steve-tf1wv chip process is NOT the only one part related to thermals. More key is the total wattage that you're pumping into the card that has to be dissipated. You can have a 6nm chip that you pump 600w into that it will run hotter and need beefier cooler than a 32nm chip that you only pump 100w into. Just the laws of physics. The RTX can really heat up when you pump the near 600w so the coolers are made to dissipate a lot more heat for even the more efficient transitors and process can't compensate when you're pushing that much power into such a small die.

[@Anachroschism]

You'll need a better CPU to fully utilise that 4090. There's no current gen CPU that doesn't bottleneck that GC.

[@MikoMuru]

Theres something wrong with the optimization on msfs atm. The 4090 only gets 30% usage. I get almost double the frames in other games compared to my old 3090 ti but only less than 10% on the 4090

[@uraymeiviar]

MSFS is CPU limited, u need to use Ryzen 7000 with 4090 to enjoy the potensial

[@metalheaddw05]

[@Culky]

Now if us plebs could get our hands on 4090s without having to pay crazy gouged prices, that would be great

[@farrakhanbogle-assegai5351]

How’s it better than Flight Simulator on XboX X? Graphics wise

[@PeterPetermann]

i so wish flight simulator would have proper vr menus and all that

[@mikeydude750]

I just got my 4090 this weekend, I have to give it a try in FS still

[@ianrivaldosmith]

You don’t have to use DLSS to get frame generation, you can turn it on without DLSS. I use TAA with frame generation to get a better picture.

[@LieorDie24]

How do you get 150 fps thats not possible i have a 4090 and a 9500 x12 Ryzen and i get 50 fps with everything on high to low only Fstl with 30 traffic is set in game only building szenery out of coclpit is on ultra objects on 100 terain lod 150 and still 50 fps what else must i buy to have a stable simulator im so fed up now

[@operatormadness]

for some reason i dont have some of the options in my settings like DLSS or DirectX.

[@balubalua2522]

Hi there:) how can i Turned off the "frame rate limit"?

[@daxconnell7661]

i run a 2080 gtx, ryzen 5 5600x, 32 gigs 3200 ram. i was able to go from low to medium settings just by switching from a mechanical to ssd hard drive

[@dmor6696]

i have a pretty decent graphic card, and i can play this game with the settings at 70% in general while in game (not the best, not the worst), but the menu is a disaster, for some reason, the menu lags somewhat and my mouse not always responds to the commands. i wonder what is the point of using a heavy menu layout in an already very heavy game.. nice bouncing mountains by the way

[@davincifpv3983]

Which location is that at 8:28 please?

[@haydn.oneill]

I only get 75-90fps over NY with DLSS 3 4k on a 4090 and 13900K, how are you achieving these numbers? 😊

[@MillzSkratchesTv]

On what monitor?

[@haydn.oneill]

@@MillzSkratchesTv ASUS ROG Swift PG32UQX 32

[@vzahradnik]

would rtx 4080 with dlss3 be enough for MSFS2020 on 4K?

[@N7Trekkie]

yes

[@Stouzough]

Enough yes, but are we 100% it will never go below 60 FPS? That's my question... However, as many people mention here, you can be perfectly happy at 30 FPS, depends on your perception

[@Sataniceasterbunny]

1:50 the building is too close i think 1:53 yep!too close 1:54 omg...short video 1:55 lucky bastard :P

[@jamesrothwell8693]

I don't even get the option of DLSS despite having a 4090, it was there with my 3090 but not anymore.

[@jmd1743]

I just wish Nvidia would sell 4090 FEs directly from their website. I was previously using a gtx 1080 seahawk which is a GPU that comes with a waterblock from the factor, I lost that GPU due to a power surge, but when I used the GPU my rackmounted case would barely close it's lid as in it buldges where the inlet/outlet of the waterblock is. I found a waterblock that moves the inlet/outlet ports to the rear of the GPU. What I'm using is a rackmounted case, and I'm currently u R7800 GPU that's 10 years of age with a 9900k. I wish Nvidia would sell FE 4090s directly off their website for MSRP.. I want to upgrade to a 40inch ultrawide 5K by 2k monitor for stock trading from a Chinese brand 1080p 27inch TV. I own guns and there was a time where I couldn't get ammo without paying through the nose to scalpers for 5 years at one time. I refused to award the ammo scalpers and I also refuse to award the GPU scalpers.

[@boborbob7579]

If you only play in vr and the money the 4090 is a must, I only bought msfs after getting mine

[@thesolitaryowl]

What world location is shown at 7:05?

[@davidw.2467]

Frame generation is not really a new technology, mpeg video compression uses it too (the I, P, and B frames), but it is clever for Nvidia to adopt this technology in GPUs.

[@Senseimatty81]

How does it behave in VR without DLSS3?

[@martinhsl68hw]

It doesn't yet! They haven't got it working :)

[@peppercornsauce5067]

Phew , bit close to that tower for comfort.

[@mannyrivera6990]

How about an upgrade program Nvidia, EVGA, Asus. Stilll running a 2080ti prices are ridiculous to afford any new cards !!!

[@Cartoonman154]

EVGA has pulled out of the graphics card market because of NVIDIA's behaviour.

[@aavvv_]

Awfully tempting until I look at the prices again lol

[@simcptmike]

It's crazy to see even with that card you can catch stutters.

[@tenchudjmusic]

microsoft's software quality is really bad these days. There seems to be lot's of blocking goin' on in their multithreading code.

[@brunogt1982]

Is Microsoft Flight Simulator support Ray Tracing now?
