Msfs2020*Performance Stutter Fix* Delete 'ALL' Shader Cache to improve performance! Full Tutorial

Hello everyone today in Microsoft flight simulator 2020 we will discuss a new feature in the nvidia control panel and how this may hurt your performance. The topic for today is the shader cache and why you should delete this on every update to the sim. Ill also show the info that i was able to get from nvidia about the best setting. Check the link section below and lastly i will touch on the nvidia profile inspector and show how to disable the shader cache for msfs alone. This may help prevent the creation of corrupt files in the cache but i would try it with and without turning it off to see what works best on your system. Leave a comment below and thanks for watching!

you decide to keep the shader cache on make sure that you delete the cache whenever there is an update just like you do with rolling

This worked very well, reduced 80% of the stutters I was getting. Tested well around LA and NYC. But as a bonus, the fans on my RTX2080-TI have stopped going into overdrive. I was maxing out at 74deg Celsius, since the change it hasn’t gone over 60 degrees, and the fans are at normal speed. So thank you for offering this procedure, worked really well for me.

Dude - mega respect! This method works. I checked in Oculus 2. Stuttering disappeared, everything began to work smoothly.

Hey man! you just fixed my game that broke down and was unplayable because of stuttering.. now everything works like a charm! THANKS! Br from Sweden.

[yanndoryan]

Thank you for this tutorial. I just tried it, and MSFS is different now. All stutters have disapeared. 👍👏

I've been doing the first part, inside the Nivida folder, for a while now. Even just that on it's own makes a big difference towards reducing stutters. I haven't done everything in the video that came after, I look forward to my Nvidia GT710 being able to deliver 240fps in 4k on ULTRA settings in MSFS from now on

Hey man! Just commenting here to let you know it worked just fined in my laptop . Thank you so much

I can't believe I just found this video!! I couldn't do any flights back to back because of stuttering. I have never deleted the cache...ever.

Quick update to video needed? My DXShader folder was located in

Dude you’re an actual magician. I have an i5 12400f with an rtx 4070. Fps usually isn’t an issue, I get 30-40 but I have DLSS frame gen so it looks like I’m always 60+ but the stuttering was still very bad. When I did this, I figured it wouldn’t work but I’d try anyways and this probably removed 90% of the stutters and seemed to increase my average fps by 3-10 fps

[skynstagflight]

Always great tutorial. Works well for me. Thank you .

Nice worked well. Got a pint waiting for you at the bar. Cheers

[heinzpilot]

Just tried this. Seems to work very well.

[clearedtoland]

Very nice! Thanks. As usual, you save the day.

[FreemanBgTV]

By the way. This its working not only for MFS
This itd working for every game or app.

Suggestion I found. For any file that wont delete in the DX or GL folder just restart your PC and go back to those folders and try again. You will get rid of most of them.

[oisiaa]

My question....why do we even have to do this? Shouldn't stuff work automatically without having to do anything?

[droge]

You have your Power Management mode set to "Normal" in that video!! It needs to be set to "Prefer Maximum Performance". I'm surprised someone making videos about settings for FS doesn't know that it's absolutely essential to set Power Management as above. Also, deleting the folders in hte Nvidia Cache folders doesn't cause any problems - they get replaced as the new shaders are built.

[tommyjordan]

Thank you, thank you. This indeed was the fix and it made sense.

[angryrick]

Will this affect anything from the fix video you made a few months ago or will I be ok to follow this one to the T cause if you remember i commented saying how that video fixed everything....even my pc ran faster lol. But now ive got some stutters back and i didnt change anything besides turning traffic down more. Im no pc nerd, lol partially why I watch your videos cause they are SUPER informative, just wanna make sure though i wont fuck anything else up. Thanks for the video!
