I’m one of the 2080ti owners looking at the 3080 and 3090 going “nvidia charged me WHAT for my 2080ti?”. However, though the performance increases look quite impressive, as of now I’m quite happy with my performance in MSFS so I’m not rushing off to another expensive upgrade....yet. It will be interesting once we start getting high fidelity aircraft, lots of AI traffic etc in the sim if my performance stays in my happy zone or if I start feeling the lure to the 3000 series cards... Hi fidelity AC and AI traffic are going to tax your CPU hard and not effect your GPU at all! Unless you’re interested in VR or 4K/8K Rez save your money and keep the 2080ti...! Chris Camp
October 4, 20205 yr that depends how it is implemented, most of MSFS code, not only the rendering tasks, runs on the GPU, actually some 70-80% of the total program, according to Asobo. keyword: GPGPU programming. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General-purpose_computing_on_graphics_processing_units and: C++ Accelerated Massive Parallelism (C++ AMP) is a native programming model that contains elements that span the C++ programming language and its runtime library. It provides an easy way to write programs that compile and execute on data-parallel hardware, such as graphics cards (GPUs). C++ AMP is a library implemented on DirectX 11 and an open specification from Microsoft for implementing data parallelism directly in C++.

October 4, 20205 yr C++ AMP was replaced by OpenCL, in case you wanted to get started with it 😉 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenCL AMD 7800X3D, Windows 11, Gigabyte X670 AORUS Elite AX Motherboard, 64GB DDR5 G.SKILL Trident Z5 NEO RGB (AMD Expo), RTX 4090, Samsung 980 PRO M.2 NVMe SSD 2 TB PCIe 4.0, Samsung 980 PRO M.2 NVMe SSD 1 TB PCIe 4.0, 4K resolution 50" TV @60Hz, VR: Pimax Crystal Light + HP Reverb G2 @ 90 Hz, Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant, be quiet 1000W PSU, Noctua NH-U12S chromax.black air cooler. 60-130 fps. no CPU overclocking. very nice.

Somehow, I don’t see PMGD high fidelity AC physics having anything to do at all with your GPU! Never had even on a DX12 platform! Chris Camp
October 4, 20205 yr I was not talking about PMDG, I doubt they are familiar with GPGPU programming, I was referring to core Asobo's stuff only.

I sure hope so since my CPU seems to sleep while MSFS is running smoothly--I think we'll have ample headroom for PMDG stuff.
