February 23, 201511 yr I know no one likes to give up eye candy. But it seems that P3D renders road textures differently than FSX. In X it was always recommended to set 7cm textures... and my PC has no issue with that. But in P3D my sim has been a stutterfest lately. So I set textures to 1m. I know it might look bad at some sceneries (orbx) or down low but it seems fine for me - I'm running UTX 2. I can honestly run AG and scenery at max except those textures and it runs smooth. I run in windowed mode.

February 24, 201511 yr Author Where the rubber meets the road? Hmmmm - well it seems to work for me. Maybe it just requires different resources from my CPU than FSX did. | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |
February 24, 201511 yr I pretty much got rid of 75 percent of my studders by turning Norton antivirus off, Norton is a killer for studders. I have Avast Professional and MalwareBytes Professional running when I fly, since I am after all connected to the Interwebs so I get my weather updates. However, both provide an exclusion capability, and anything to do with P3D (and related) is ignored. Not sure if Norton offers the same capability, but I remember from way past experience that Norton is a pig, period. The big commercial outfits, Norton and McAffee, are increasingly like Adobe PDF: bloat-ware. I will have to check out this 1m setting. Over heavy urban areas I get single digit frame rates. Smooth, as long as I don't try a turn!!!
