thank you all, i did try the screen and i am about to cry 😅 I must do something wrong, 

I spend almost 2k on a ryzen 5600x, rtx 3070, 32gb 3600 ram and this screen but on my test fly i do not even reach 15fps over toronto (was around 25/30 with the 3 24" monitors) 

i don't know what to do, i see people on facebook playing the sim on ultra 4k with a lower config than mine so i assume there is a problem somewhere, 

 

here's screen of my settings, RTSS was close, no tweak on nvidia control panel except the set to performance, game mode on, and clean windows install 

 

I even try to put sim resolution to 3840*1080 but it did not really improve a lot 

 

anyone can help please ? 

Congrats on the new system! The monitor looks awesome!

Turn off V-Sync and set the LOD slider to 100. See if that helps. 

On my G-sync 3440x1440 monitor I have G-Sync on , V-Sync off. Performance on in NCP, Game Mode on.

Type GPU in the search bar and you'll find Graphics Settings.

Turn on Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling ( needs restart)

I have Variable Refresh Rate off (but you could try it on or off)

Graphics Performance Preferance, choose Microsoft Flight Simulator and set it to High Performance.

 

That being said, 5K Ultra is very hard for a GPU to run. Even 4K on Ultra is difficult for the most powerful graphics cards. Especially if you fly in an urban area.

You could also dive into the settings on the monitor itself, see if there's any Overdrive mode or special gaming settings there. Sometimes these settings are just making things worse. Especially in Flight Simulator where 30-60 frames is the goal, and not 120 Hz constsantly. 

In your onscreen FPS display everything is "green" but you seem to be capped at 20 FPS. 

Maybe start by disabling all vsync/gsync/freesync both in game and in the nvidia control panel as well as on the monitor itself and in anything else you run like Riva tuner just to test if gsync is an issue.

 

 

I had an issue a couple of weeks ago where Nvidia Control Panel had capped my fps at 75. I had not changed anything myself. 

Like Glenn said, maybe it's capped at 20 or so. Check the settings in Nvidia Control Panel, both Global and Flight Simulator specifically. 

Thank you all, 

Because of you my sim is now playable 😄 

So i followed alsmost all your advice, set my monitor refresh rate to 60 instead of 120, turn off freesync, but i let in sim V-sync on and fps lock 60, which are the settings that gives me the best performance 

i also put render scaling to 80 and I can say the sim is pretty smooth with average of 30fps 😄 

 

Thanks a lot

Glad you sorted it!

Another thing, did you enable XMP/DOCP in your BIOS?

If you enable it, your RAM will get a 1:1 FCLK ratio with the CPU, and with your system, it should give you another 5-10% boost overall. With your 3600 MHz RAM, the FCLK will be 1:1 1800 MHz because DDR is Double Data Rate. When enabling XMP/DOCP it does the settings automatically usually.

You've definately chosen the optimal components for the best price / performance possible. It's a really nicely spec'ed PC!
