Hey Guys.  Information changes frequently.  Some info likely out of date.  Do you guys use NVIDIA Control Panel to make any changes to Prepar3D graphic settings?  Really trying to figure out best practices and settings.

I only use it for display settings and color settings along with the HDR settings in P3d. I don't use any profile or touch any other settings. Its all subjective as to what you like in color. The NCP really helps in doing this.

The best thing do is is calibrate your monitor using something like Calibrize.  It can make all the difference in the world.  After doing that, you can fine tune things using NVIDIA Control Panel and/or P3D.  Use NVIDIA Control Panel if you want further changes that affect the display in all programs, and the P3D settings if you just want to affect P3D (with a Calibrated monitor I have never had to do this).

 

Best wishes.

Your 1080 vertical resolution is probably the reason. With a 1080Ti you really should be running at UHD. 3840*2160. Four times the resolution. Then you’ll see a difference. 👍
