There's a big difference between what someone needs running 4K and what they need just running 1080. I'd bet most running into issues with 8G cards are also running 4K. Scott
April 26, 20206 yr Author Thanks for all the replies I do not seem to run out of memory GPU runs steady at 1.5 of 5 GB available Frame rates seem to stay good at 30-no drops- steady between 29 and 30 Bit of a puzzle You've given me some ideas to work on Thanks for that xxd09
April 26, 20206 yr I am working on reducing CPU load. For example, ASUS Aura, mobo lighting, is consuming an idiotic 20 percent of the CPU, so I uninstalled that wasteful junk. Immediately saw less jittering.

KMIA is certainly the most problematic, but it can work. It uses up to 6.3GB for me at 4K. Have to dial back the VRAM sensitive settings, namely texture resolution and/or level of detail radius. And of course limit AA to 2x, which is all you really need at 4K anyhow, so that's a default for me. I tested it on 4.5 also - LVFR KMIA uses the same amount of VRAM in v4.5 as v5 with Truesky off. If I use the same settings and turn on Truesky, I blow the limit, so I have to pick. This only applies to me at KMIA. Everywhere else I'm running greater than v4.5 settings. Anyone that doesn't have 8GB VRAM can't realistically run 4K resolution, but 1080p or even 1440p should be fine with 6GB VRAM. But to say that you can't run 4K with 8GB VRAM hasn't been my experience over the last 2 weeks. 5800X3D | Radeon RX 6900XT

April 27, 20206 yr Author Maybe a way ahead for me too in the short term Ruthlessly removed all Addons not immediately needed ie absolutely nothing in Scenery and Addons (Planes and Sceneries) not required for a particular flight-a bit time consuming but got a non jittery flight Much more work setting up a flight but at least I have a smooth flight
