On page 4 he says four cores do all the work, on the Ryzen 7 3800XT 8 core. Hyperthreading is enabled so there are 16 graphs showing. The first four are in fact only two physical cores both sharing the work of the first four tasks. So you have to be careful when reading up on benchmarks.

A depressing case for a brand new flight sim engine. With a sim being so heavily CPU bound, it's a shame the developers didn't manage to implement state-of-the-art multithreading. This will hurt them a lot in the long run, with every add-on eating away CPU time. 

 

Oh my god, take-off and landing, what an atrocious stutterparty. On arguably one of the fastest systems money can buy.

But hey, "I get 60FPS locked on Ultra, Colonel X is PAID by X-Plane".

Right.

So long as the two tasks on the two Logical Processors don't exceed the throughput capacity (demand) of the total core, then it's not so bad.

Very interesting to see the 5700 XT outgun the RTX 2060 by a considerable margin, given they cost the same price and I believe theoretically they're quite similar.

The days of nVidia dominance may be over when AMD's new high end cards arrive, certainly in the mid-range segment if you were stepping up from the excellent value 1660 Super the graph suggests the 5700 XT would be your next step at this time.

The 2060 super is the one that's around the same price point at the XT, and there was a 1 fps difference between them, lol. 😅 If you look at what the new 3070, 80, and 90 are going to be throwing down I wouldn't bet on AMDs top end cards even touching them.

Ah damnit Google shopping was showing me 5700 non-XT prices! The 5600 XT would be RTX 2060 money at around £260 for either, and then there's not difference in performance.

glad i got the 2080 super instead of the 2080 ti as the latter only gives 4 fps increase in 1440p at double the price.

Crucially,  the 2080ti has 11GB vram which is why I went for it.

Right.

I dont see stutters, fact.

I don't normally have stutters either, sure over NY (who doesn't), but I mean it totally varies depending how dense a city is with the buildings. Seattle is also pretty dense and so high res it causes some issues, but people are installing third party stuff already, so who knows what each person's config is and what they are running in the background (even if not related to FS).

 

Colonel Shill keep still  😉

It doesn’t seem to bother everyone. It’s really obvious during takeoff roll in this video if you look at the scenery to the sides. Bad timing of frames.

It bothers me so much that I’m not currently flying MSFS.

With the fact that you can’t see it I’m wondering how many other people are stuttering about with their ”butter smooth” experience.

Used every simulator since the first MS flight sim so I know what a stutter is 🙂

I dont see stutters at all.  I only see an occasional pause which I'm assuming is scenery loading.

Yep. That’s the same stuttering I’m experiencing. I think some people just don’t notice it and think we are nit picking. I can enjoy a fairly constant frame rate like 20 or 30 fps but this won’t do it for me.

A fellow long time flight simmer! I won’t argue. If you’re not seeing it, you’re not seeing it.

All these years tweaking as much as flying just like many of us😊  This sim is the very first one I have just flown and not noticed any negatives (outside of the known issues).

I have been staring at the screen looking for stutters but not seen them yet. Hoorah!
