FPS loss in-flight while using FSTramp [P3D V5]

Featured Replies

Hi all,

I have noticed a loss of FPS in my system under certain circumstances. I have a dual-screen set up: P3DV5 in "full-screen" mode on the main screen, and FSTramp on the second screen.

When I initiate FSTramp at the beginning of my flying sessions, FPS are pretty constant (between 60-150 or depending on scenery etc). After 5 hours or so, FPS start varying quite wildly, sometimes going as low as 15. This only happens when the FSTramp window is open. If I close FS Tramp, FPS go back up and remain constant. As per the attachment, the GPU load spikes up when FS Tramp is open after a few hours. VRAM sits at 4 GB (out of 7.1) with or without FSTramp. 

I have pretty decent FPS otherwise, so I don't think it's specific to any other add-ons or sceneries.

I've followed the developer's advice and changed NVIDIA's power settings to Adaptive but the problem persists. I've tested turning off Enhanced Atmospherics and Active Sky but the problem persists. Any idea what might be causing this issue?

My system specs:

CPU: i9-9900KF 3.6Ghz
GPU: RTX 2070 Super with 8GB VRAM
P3DV5 installed in SSD 1TB
RAM: 32GB

Thank you!

I use fstramp but I only use P3DV5 in windowed mode.  So not sure I have any advice.  Though I will say I've only heard it recommended to have Nvidia to prefer maximum performance.  I don't know why you would possibly want adaptive.
