MSFS 2020 - Why better FPS has nothing to do with your Graphic Settings. FPS are 90% affected by ...

Here is a Youtube Video where Alex is explaining where you get the FPS Ingame Counter and how you set it up:


My Specs:

RTX 3080
I9 10900K
32 GB DDR4 RAM

I hope this Video helps you a little bit for more Performance.

I became a commercial radio broadcaster and voiceover talent and commercial producer in 1983. Believe me when I tell you that you have absolutely no concerns whatsoever about how effective your English is. It is absolutely effective. You are a fluently bilingual Youtuber. Trust that. The most important thing, is that your speech is very thoughtful and nothing can replace that in any language. Well done.

Honestly, it has been pointed out by YouTube 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!

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. 🙏

[flickety]

Thank you so much! I was able to jump to 40-50 fps after tuning the traffic settings and now it's so much more better!

Great video, your English is better than my German, so don't even worry about that. You speak wonderfully and I understand everything you said.

Great video, I have subscribed

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.

WTF, i have 2 Channels on Youtube and i wasn´t on this channel for 2 Days. 40 Comments, 430 Likes, over 100 Abos. You are I am so impressed, thanks a

tl;dw: 5:00 - The problem is MSFS default traffic objects. Reduce maximum rendered vehicles, workers, etc. He uses the following settings (though it probably doesn't have to be exact: Airport Vehicle Density 0, Ground Aircraft Density 0, Worker Density 12, Leisure Boats 5, Road Vehicles 13, Ships and Ferries 7, Fauna Density 11. 5:55: Use FSLTL for traffic instead of Microsoft. He uses 30, 5, 2, 60, 100, 50 for traffic injection settings (top to bottom.)

DX12 also is known for having low performance on MFSF, switching to DX11 should give a boost in stability and performance

This is huge! Thank you so much. I fly into NYC regularly in MSFS and I frequently get this issue on arrival but not departures. Couldn’t figure it out. You’re amazing!

[anthonygray]

Thanks very much for this. I tried the Flybywire traffic and got a much better FPS than I had before. I have a 3080 card and I9 11900. Its quite a difference now and given my system a boost. You english is perfect by the way

[LokiDWolf]

Thank you very much for this. Going to check it out the next time I play the sim. Seems to make a lot of sense. Also, your English was just fine. Thanks for going through the trouble as well.

LIKED AND SUBSCRIBED! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[johnlister]

Thanks. I have taken out the traffic from msfs. This has solved all issues I had. I was about to give up with the sim and continue with x plane 11. My interest has been rekindled. Again thank you.

[Cheeky]

Thanks for the video and congrats on your new English language channel, I have liked and subscribed, looking forward to your next videos 👍🏼

[msbilbrough]

Excellent video and solid methodology to your testing. Thanks for creating and sharing. Your English is fine, keep it up mate.

[rebeccaschade]

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.

[jet-inairwaysvirtual.]

You did an awesome job of this, well done mate. Keep up the good work. William.

[Vasilo]

Great video and very informative. Learnt lots of stuff. My friend bought rtx 4090 yesterday and I tell you what I was impressed the performance was amazing
Not everyone can afford this card but at some point down the line when this card gets cheaper lots of people will buy it and solve their problems once and fora all. The future for flight swimming is great.😊

[johnb.]

This helped me out so much, thank you for this video..! Everything works well and looks awesome..!!!!

[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.
