This was one of the major topics for them to improve. And they have decreased the overall usage and stabilized it also more (when flying and changing things). I can highly recommend 5.2 over 5.1.

I just upgraded to 5.2, and where I had all my settings set below the P3D default, I now have them all at their MAX and the GPU load is only 38%, the CPU is also lower. Great job LM.

I’m on a 2080 Super 8GB as it seemed the best option budget wise during the time I was getting my PC, I’ve kicked myself every day since for not going with the 2080TI-hoping this will be a done deal now.
June 11, 20214 yr One thing I have found was that using 8xMSSA over 8xSSSA reduced the load on my GPU by approx. 50%. I also found that EA did not produce the clouds and their development that good; I found turning it OFF produced better and more realistic clouds. I now have nearly everything maxed out except for the Autogen Buildings which remains at normal, and all this on a GTX1080 with an i7/6700 and 16Gb of Ram. I must say LM did a great job with this update - 5.2.

June 11, 20214 yr VRAM management is much better, but it's not a total panacea. I still can't use the NGXu at LVFR's FLL + MIA without having to drag settings down or turn off EA to prevent a DXGI on a 8GB card.

I have both but disable the one I am not flying from/in. Ramon De Valencia AMD 9950X3D / 64GB DDR5 6000MHz / RTX 5090 / 1200 watt PSU MSFS 2020 and 2024
June 11, 20214 yr I am on the way from EDDV to ESSA with the PMDG 737 NGXu. In VR (Rift-S), VRAM never exceeds 2.7GB. Frames are around 30fps and smooth. I am flying not very high (FL340). I see some slight wafer clouds, but only temporarily when the sky is re-arranged following a weather update by ActiveSky. I am glad to have updated to v5.2!
