Hmm, during my IFR flights, I have never seen my 1080ti use more than 6GB VRAM. I am on 1080p with 150 resolution scale (which is 1620p). It's quite a miracle how well MSFS handles VRAM actually. Haven't yet flown into NYC, but I suppose it would fit in.

Would be useful to know what's your average VRAM load and how much that increases in NYC. I'd recommend not turning everything on Ultra just for the sake of it, there's so much performance to be found by lowering to High or Med. and in most cases, the visual downgrade is negligible.

I'm usually around 7.5 GB when flying around in Australia and don't usually fly in places like new York but when I do I will probably drop settings back until in can get a 3090 ti
