Sure, it’s possible to run it fine. Which I meant is with Ray Tracing off it would run way above 60 FPS @4k and ultra settings.

Yes and I hear it still looks great, DLSS "performance" looks bad but is a huge FPS booster, The best setting to change is crowns from high to med that will make a huge difference. If anyone have FPS problems, also  Cascaded Shadows Resolution to med. Them two should make even 4k run well.

At 1440p a 4GB GPU would be very constrained indeed, but if you were also getting 17 FPS at 1080p then there was a problem. In that video with the 4GB variant the frame rate did not go below 23 when flying dangerously close to the ground, and was 30+ in the airport with medium settings. It will be interesting to hear your results with the RTX 3080.

No data yet on the 3080; I just tore everything apart and got it installed today when the holiday started, but I did test the RX 570 card at 6,000 feet before removing it, and I got 27-8 FPS consistently at that altitude, still at 1440 ultrawide with a second 1080 monitor for Air Manager. I think that explains the 17 FPS I was seeing at 500 feet above ground level.

I'll post again about the frame rates on the 3080

So, I got the transition from AMD to Nvidia completed.

At a mixture of Ultra and High settings, I'm now seeing about 80 FPS at altitude and about 60 FPS at 500 feet with one monitor at 3440x1440 and the other at 1920x1080.
