The worst experience with a 4K display

[bbain1187 118]

Before I go messing around with Nvidia Inspector again (reminds me of the FSX days) can someone who's doing 60hz with the external FPS limiter tell me if it's as smooth as 30hz/Vsync/triple buffering? I thought the whole point of 30hz was that the display synced up perfectly to your sim refresh rate and that that could not be done with an external FPS limiter. I'm getting really good results with that using TrackIr but the mouse lag is a bit annoying.

I use that but I use asus GPU tweak 2 to limit to 30fps.

Works OK for me, but you try putting the fsl into a big frame hitting airport like sfo, lax, etc etc you'll probably get stutters

I use NV Profile Inspector (I don't leave home without it) for one very specific reason -shimmering.  I engage only one setting: SuperSample Transparency -4xsgaa-.

A word of caution: Inspector can leave you with undesired results if used carelessly. 

My basics: Make sure Nvidia CP and Inspector _GLOBAL_DRIVER_PROFILE (Base Profile) are at default. My Inspector "" Prepared """ profile has just the above mentioned setting engaged.

 

 

Reseting all to default (NV CP and NI) and modifying only the profile for P3D helped a little, I have less stuttering, it still happens from  time to time but seems to be less. Need to fly/test some more.

a rule of thumb: a) always delete your shader cache file after changing a video settings b) fly around for awhile to allow the new cache to populate

While you're at it, might as well delete you Prepared config file ....if its at default. see the Prepared Tips and Tricks forum for help on that

 

Keep plugging away, you'll find the sweet spot.

I am doing, with great success. Pretty smooth and no mouse sluggishness, and I adjusted the FFTF as well. One other advantage I noticed is that when the frame rate falls below 30 it's not as stuttery as it used to be before.

the above video is from a single 8 minute 22GB Fraps capture at 30fps. Prepared was set at unlimited FPS 1920x1200, video compressed 1920x1080 -the bottom 180 lines of resolution were cropped due aspect ration difference. No editing, including frameblend were used.
