Featured Replies

Hey guys

Wanting your opinions please

My current specs

Asus vi extreme mobo

I7 4790k not oc

2x titans  superclocked 6gb first version. In sli

2 x samsung 840 pro 256gb 1 for os 1 for p3d

850w corsair psu

H110 water cou cooler

16 gb 2x 8gb 888 24 1600mhz mushkin redline ram

Would this be ok for p3d v4??

 

Thanks 

Mike

 

 

Your system seems ot be overkill, assuming that requirements are slightly higher than in V3. When they release actual sim in non-beta stage we'll be able to determine where are actual requirements with regards to performance, but man - let's face it, you have high-end beast there.

Thank you for your reply.

Performance is great atm in 3.4

Just hoping that the autogen popping and slightly blurred textures are a thing of the past in p3d v4

 

If not ide probably move to xplane  11

 

Keep in mind scenery isn't everything. P3D/FSX provide a very rich and rewarding experience due to the outstanding quality of the available addons found nowhere else (yet).

CASE: Fractal Terra Silver CPU: AMD R5 7800X3D 5.0Ghz RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000 GPU: nVidia RTX 4070 Ti SUPER · SSDs: Samsung 990 PRO 2TB M.2 PCIe · PNY XLR8 CS3040 2TB M.2 PCIe · VIDEO: LG-32GK650F QHD 32" 144Hz FREE/G-SYNC · MISC: Thrustmaster TCA Airbus Joystick + Throttle Quadrant · MSFS2024 · Windows 11

As far as i could see in rob Ainscough's  and matt's YouTube video autogen popping is no big thing anymore.

 

But vram 8 gb seems not to be sufficient if you want to have autogen like crazy.

I would suggest looking at increasing your disk capacity as this may hold you back from deploying more addons especially as they will get bigger due to x64.

Seems so, but it may depend on the resolution of your monitor(s).  1080p in triple setup would be fine--4k maybe not so much.

Forever indebted to the late Michael Greenblatt of FSGS.

I was thinking of a 34" with an aspect ratio of 21:9. Not sure which resolution I wanna go with....2560x1080 or 3440x1440.

You only need 8GB+ VRAM if you enable "tweaks" that are not available via standard UI graphics settings.  If you stick to UI settings then 4GB VRAM "should" be enough.

Cheers, Rob.

Thank you for clarification rob. So the 8 gb of my 1080 are enough :-)
