Honestly, it has been pointed out by KZbin videographers for at least two years already that if one is having trouble with frame rates, it's necessary to reduce "traffic" of all kinds -- airborne and ground -- to minimal. However, this is a very good demonstration of the distinct difference between traffic reduction and rendering reduction, and it's really the only one I've seen that provides the before-and-after comparison. It brings this point home to those of us who have not seen earlier videos on the subject. Thanks for that!

Thank you very much for this video. It's been an absolute gamechanger for me. The demand on both my CPU and GPU has drastically reduced, this is after upping my settings with many now on ultra. Most importantly the stutters and micro stutter's have been virtually eliminated. This has really made my day and really enhanced the immersion. Cheers and thanks again.

[@paulpak460]

This was a total game changer for me. I've been trying to figure this out for 2 years, and you just solved it for me. I gained more FPS from this than I did jumping from a Radeon 6800XT to a 7900XTX. 🙏

[@camhackett44]

Literally, I have a 3800X3D and 3080Ti and have been struggling with frames forever, this just fixed it

[@skydriver5709]

Another thing you can try since you're using AMD GPU. Notice the game gives extra settings for Nvidia users to upscale images. AMD has this too, but it's in their Adrenaline software, not an in-game setting. If you're using a 4k monitor, turn on your Radeon Super Resolution in the gaming tab of Adrenaline for MSFS, select the highest lower setting from the drop down, then match that resolution in game and save. The software will upscale the game to 4k from that lower resolution, and you'll get a HUGE performance boost. I was playing at around 25fps in 4K resolution on my 6900XT. After turning on Super Resolution, I'm now 50fps with 4k upscaling, and the game looks the same.

[@theaustralianconundrum]

@@autonormalverbraucher Why does my Series X console NEVER get low FPS or stuttering?? It's always perfect. On console I cannot change any graphics settings. Your reason is that you have all the special effects on like cars, boats, fauna, airport traffic, vehicles etc. I have all set to zero. I have multiplayer set to off and use real time Bing, metar, meteoblue and real live air traffic. I never use any 3rd party add ons. I only use Asobo code. No CTD's and I get 30FPS so smooth on an 86" 4K UHD TV which supports VRR if required. Problem with PC's is they still use extremely slow old DDR4 RAM. Series X uses only 100% GDDR6 for everything as CPU and GPU is system on a chip and share this very fast RAM. I also have fast internet of 100MB/sec which is stable 24/7.

[@neth77]

@@theaustralianconundrum 30FPS is low, lol. Consoles are easy to code for because they are all exactly the same hardware. They actually reduced some graphics in the sim when it released on XBOX which annoyed a bunch of top end PC users.

[@theaustralianconundrum]

@@neth77 They actually reduced some graphics in the sim when it released on XBOX which annoyed a bunch of top end PC users. Sure they did.

Simply untrue as you put it because I get over 60FPS without stuttering with everything set to high/ultra so clearly a good PC is better. FS 2020 is unique in that it requires fast and stable internet. Most PC users have neither. Global average is a mere 50MB/sec. I run 100MB/sec.

Thank you so much for this video, I have been struggling with this for the past year but never thought that traffic would have such a huge affect. I upgraded my vid card last year to a 4070ti because my old gpu was the obvious problem, yet FPS did not improve and CPU / GPU usage is low like 20%. I have an 11900k with 32 gigs of 3600 ram and the game was never maxing out a single core, highest 1 core would go up to is 50%. The game seems to have some major problem with AI, switch to online traffic helps but shutting of traffic and AI generated things makes a huge difference. It's really unfortunate that 3.5 yrs and the game still can't efficiently use cpu cores to generate AI traffic, maybe they think most people will play online ?

This has been my trick for running old outdated equipment for generations. An easy fix, but sadly not realistic. Asset reduction. Getting my 20-30 fps however I can and trying to maintain it. But this is a good benchmark test you did and very much better than most. I tell my friend all the time, if you can run JFK at night in a t-storm with some traffic…and get 20-30 fps, you have a good setup if running 2 or 4k.

[@rebeccaschade3987]

The strange thing to me, is how the traffic amount doesn't seem to affect CPU usage much, but it still tanks the frame rates. That suggests some problems with how the game engine works with regards to simulating the different vehicles etc. It's a bit stupid that 3rd party mod developers have to resolve pretty serious issues that are caused by the game engine itself.

[@autonormalverbraucher]

Hi, i wouldn´t say stupid 3rd Party Developers because they bring the Sim to the next level. Funny is that the Stock Traffic is more stressing the system than the 3rd Party Mods ;)

It depends on how this is coded. If there are messages, locks, waits, sleeps, threads spawning, copies, … you can get low cpu usage with very little work being done. Sometimes having low cpu usage is good, sometimes it is bad. Performance is a hard problem.

[@vetobadmusic]

It's worth noting that low CPU and GPU saturation does not necessarily mean that the problem doesn't lie with CPU or GPU utilisation. It could very well be that the software does not utilise the resources available in an optimal way, causing low CPU and GPU usage but crappy performance.

[@kashiffcollins5554]

Here is a little idea as to how MSFS2020 utilises your Hardware: CPU: It uses the CPU to simulate real-world physics, calculate complex flight dynamics, and generate and process a vast amount of data in real-time. GPU: MSFS 2020 is a visually stunning game that heavily utilizes the GPU to render high-quality graphics and textures. The game uses advanced rendering techniques such as volumetric clouds, real-time lighting, and reflections to create a realistic world. RAM: The game uses RAM to store and process data in real-time, including terrain data, textures, and flight dynamics. Storage: The game streams data continuously, so having a fast and reliable storage device such as an SSD can significantly improve loading times and overall performance. So as you see its all about balance my friend

With a 13900k and 4090 64 gb ddr5 ram you still get stutters. Just tried it. I think allot of KZbin vids have tricked people into believing you can put everything on ultra and have 200 fps in order to help the markets or they are sponsored.

Just a small suggestion for these two videos: Include a description that outlines what the outcome/conclusion is. Alternatively a conclusion section with a timestamp, so we can check if its the same thing we've already done. Save us watching through an hour to try and find all the setting sections when we've already tweaked with and without traffic turned on, but just came to the video because were curious if it was about something else.

[@chiplarkin4069]

Thank you!!! What is the application you have running that is measuring frame rate, CPU, GPU and memory?

[@prokopiu]

Your English is very good. What you describe I found out from day 1 in MSFS when it came out. I had a GTX1080 TI and abysmal FPS. The first thing I did was to turn off parked aircraft, airport traffic and almost anything that moved. And hey, 35 to 40 fps on a good day. Now I have a RTX 3070 TI with the same relatively high settings and 60 fps. The graphics card and CPU will determine where you can end up with your frame rate towards the top. Badly programmed AI traffic will destroy your frames. FSTL is freeware. JustFlight has just released Traffic Global and claims they are even better with their models. I have not bought it yet. Using VATSIM or IVAO etc can lower your fps on a busy day. But if you make sure that you do not use any of the MSFS models, you should be fine. Good stuff, thanks that you point this out so specifically. Often this hides in videos about general settings (I did that too) and the importance of dynamic traffic is not realized out there.

[@mikepapahotel]

Hi Starbugs! 👏🏻 First off - your English is perfect! I enjoyed your video - well explained and I'm certainly going to play with some of those in-game settings as you suggested. As you said at the beginning - I was one of those people chasing fps who followed the advice of various KZbinrs - changing PC settings I didn't understand. Nothing improved! I have FSLTL available for use via Addon Linker, but I rarely use it because I thought it's probably an fps killer. I'll revisit that decision now. I was hesitant to get into MSFS in the first place because the PC I built 3 years ago is only running a Ryzen 7 1700 coupled with an Nvidia GTX 1070 8GB - and now I've retired its hard to justify the cost of a new system for MSFS. 😫 In the end I decided to take a chance and bought MSFS about 4 months ago, and I was very pleasantly surprised to find that on a combination of around 50% high; 40% ultra settings and the rest turned off - I still get an average of between 25 - 27fps in most settings. Of course I've avoided flying big jets into Heathrow etc - just concentrating mostly on GA. The reason I share all this is that when I built my PC I went overboard with the ram and installed 64gb of very fast ram (for that time). I also bought a fast SSD to run MSFS from. Obviously there's no way my core hardware should be performing as well as it does, so I can only assume that having so much ram is helping make MSFS flyable for me. 🤷‍♂️ One question if I may - which app are you using for your FPS/ resource meter? Good luck with your new channel - I'll be back to check out your new stuff as it appears! Mike 😊👍🏻

[@autonormalverbraucher]

Hey Mike, thx for your Comment. Just try it this way: Set your Graphics to High, than reduce everything which has to do with shadows. Deactivate Blur, Depth of Field and Lens Flare. After this Deactivate all Traffic. On Ground and other Aircraft. I prommise your Sim will get about 40-60 FPS than. Install FSLTL and let AI Traffic set to off. Set the Airport Vehicles up to 10 to get your Push Back Trucks available. In FSLTL set the radius for injected Groundtraffic to 10 Miles and VFR Flight to 0. IFR Flights to 10. With this Settings you will have enough Groundtraffic to enjoy the Flight and your FPS should be about 30 FPS.

thanks, your english is fine

[@WanderfalkeAT]

That is what you find out first: AI Traffic makes the game stutter more and more every second. This is because if you set the traffic very high then the flight sim has to handle lots and lots of AI with all the complex movement included. The reason is that MSFS tries to syncronize the Traffic with you, and the sim stops for a millisecond whenever he has to correct the time between you and the Air Traffic. This adds up whenever annother Traffic is added. If you are close to that traffic it even has to show the movement on your screen - It kills any good framerate you have, no matter the graphics settings or resolution. I recommend flying with AI Traffic off but All Players shown. If you come to an airport with lots of players on it or around it - It will start to stutter again - But that is unavoidable. Sometimes you see Players warp through the sky or into the ground - That is when the other guy has lag or loses connection. So the System stops to try to match the Player Traffic to your System - This causes no frame loss but really weird Player Traffic.

[@autonormalverbraucher]

Oh, i never fly with Multiplayer Traffic, i only use FSLTL, there are no real Players. FSLTL just uses Flightradar to make his own Routes, but they are not synced to Realtime.

Vielen lieben dank. Ich versuche Morgen genau das gleiche zu machen. Ich habe vor 2 Tage neue MSI RTX 4080 gekauft und in Flytampa Amsterdam oder iniBuildings New York mit traffic (Justflight) ich habe nur 23 fps, wo ich erwarte schon bischen mehr sowie, z.B 40. Ok mein Display hat 48zoll aber trotztem… Ich wunsche dir alles gute. 🛫
