MSFS 2020 *Best Performance Settings Explained Nvidia Panel* Monitor & VR: Reduce Stutters ISLC tool

Mastering Nvidia Control Panel for MSFS2020: A Complete Tutorial from Start to Finish" From basic optimization tips to powerful tweaks for the most advanced users, this video will cover everything you need to know to get the best possible performance in Microsoft Flight Simulator using Nvidia Control Panel. Follow along step-by-step and become a true graphics settings expert! Stay till the end and i have a bonus application that is very useful
in managing ram usage in the sim and helps prevent ram build up from long haul flights. This is also a great app from users with 16gb of ram to allow for extra overhead. This applications can also help prevent stutters due to memory buildup. I will also go over the DSR feature in the panel and explain how to use it as well as who should probably not use it depending on the system performance. Check out the link section below as well as the copy and paste section for the timer resolution. Thanks for watching and make sure to like share and subscribe to the channel!

These videos should start this way: To see if any of this is worth doing, start the developer toolkit and take a flight. Watch the top and see what is limiting your frame rate. If the box below the frame rate says that you are Main Thread or CPU limited, none of the GPU settings are going to change that and the CPU will continue to set the frame rate limit. I used to run a laptop with a 3070 GPU and I always thought it was the video quality settings that were hurting me, but one day I realized that the real secret to getting higher frame rates was to back off on the Object and Tarrain LOD sliders. These have nothing to do with the sharpness of the graphics. They only determine the distance and density of objects in the view, and these objects are generated by the CPU and not the GPU. If you are flying near an airport and you lower your Object slider down, what you will see is that fewer planes and ground equipment will be seen in the distance. Traffic is also a big user of CPU time. When I finally figured this out, I could run my laptop 3070 at Ultra on most setting (other other than the LOD sliders, and get 50 frames a second. Bottom line, if you are CPU limited, none of the changes seen in this video will really do that much. Today, I have 13900 CPU, and a 4080, and at 4K, the GPU is loafing, but even with the 13900, the CPU is almost always setting the frame rate. Except for the LOD sliders, I run all other graphics settings at max, and the CPU is still the limit. The only real fix is to re-design the program to use more cores of the CPU and apparently this is happening because there will be a new MSFS later this year.

Running a Cyberpowerpc with NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 4070...began to experience stuttering after tweaking settings per other less descriptive videos. Followed your suggestions, and now MSFS2020 is running buttery smooth, even at low altitudes. Thanks for the great info and articulating all the what-why-how. Thumbs up!

[imacmill]

This is the info that's been missing in all the other YTubers' videos! Thank you!

Followed your guide and finally transitioned to DX12 beta and wowzers! Huge performance boost (85- 100 fps) in the air and (55-65 fps) at CYYZ with a combo of high and ultimate settings. Smooth as butter graphically and visually beautiful now. This was absolutely what I needed to do. Testing is the key for sure! Thank you so much for this excellent video.

Thank you so much for this. Ive tried many tutorials in the past, but this one is the jackpot so far for me. I followed your Nvidia settings and my sim has never been smoother. Each flight is perfect, from start to finish. No stutters, smooth panning, even at heavy airports like EGLL and EGKK. I have a 3080Ti and my sim settings are a mix of high and ultra settings. LOD is at 190 and OLD at 130, DX12 and TAA. FPS between 40 – 52 on ground, dips to around 35 - 40 at heavier airports on Vatsim and with FSLT and Fenix, but all smooth 👏 Using the V–Synch setting „fast“ in Nvidia CP seems to cause microstutters for me, so Ive left that as application controlled and use V–Synch in the sim instead.

The best thing ever was the frame gen mod, with these settings it becomes even better

[claudelafrance]

Always well explained and confident that you have thoroughly researched prior to putting the content out, thanks for this.

I changed my screens resolution with DSR and now my GPU usage is much higher and more consistent then before. It was sitting around 20-30%, but now it's between 60-80%. Performance has been nice with this change. I had a bottleneck with my pc and it helped me.

Lots of well wishes for you to get better and another Awesome Video presantation

Thanks much for your tunes : It has helped me very much to get a very better image and smoother flight !
Take care of you and continue to your very help full videos. 😊

Great video buddy. Working so smooth. 👍

Very well done video, easy to HEAR and SEE. I went thru it all and everything was working. Came in next morning (after shutdown) and the NGX Updater from Nvidia came into play, about 10 instances of it were created (watching task manager), then the Flight Simulator would turn off. I could repeat this. I seem to have no way to stop the NGX Nvidia Updater. I re-installed the sim (via steam), and did a "restore" on all your (great) settings. Now I'm downloading the latest "release" from the sim. Somehow that updater doesn't know where the flight simulator is. And it is now on my "N" drive instead of the default "C". (That may be part of the problem). Thank you for a great vid, things didn't work out for me.

[jdub]

Wish I could use the frame generation for my 3090 but apparently popouts don’t work with it and that’s a must have for me. Great vids as always!

[jay-lcox]

Great video! This definitely helped with fps and nice graphics.

[Izmael]

Great video. Also I think at the v-sync part the g-sync and freesync info should be added, because it is much better than default v-sync. So if you have g-sync or freesync monitor you should not use v-sync - it should be just global setting - off.

[philipwilson]

Great video as always. When you have time, would you put together a video on your recommended settings when using the latest version of the nVidia Clean Install app?

[andyaustin]

Well explained video. Always helpful
Thank you.

[macmusica]

Thanks for the TIPS on settings and explanations. Last MSFS Update did impact 30 & 40 Series cards. Should we be using a VIRTUAL RAM even if I have 32GB Physical and only using SSD Drives? I had my older 2080 run better than my new 3080 as the game uses upto 24GB I set as Virtual but on my new PC I am not using one.

[michaelfazakas]

Awesome your tutorials are great thank you!, ,
