(and keep HT unchanged - believe its currently on - but have no real need to disable in the bios) Yes if no core stands out in particular there’s no particular reason to assign cores for either MSFS or Fenix / other apps. Ive set CPU priority to high for MSFS and the Fenix apps. But I haven’t done any changes with I/O priority. 7950X3D | RTX 4090 | 64GB DDR5
June 11, 20223 yr I sometimes really wonder why so many people seem to be having performance problems... I have a fairly new system, bought it in october last year, but because I didn't manage to win the lottery I wasn't able to buy the absolute top hardware and had to settle for a few steps lower. AMD Ryzen 5 5600X on a MSI MAG B550 Tomahawk, 32 GB G.Skill Ripjaws V F4-3600C, Corsair RM650X, Samsung 980 1 TB, Gigabyte RTX 3060 Ti. That kind of stuff. I see people here with better stuff moaning how bad things are... I only fly the Fenix and I have all MSFS settings to Ultra and even enabled the high res Fenix cockpit textures. It runs beautifully. Aweseome. Great. Smooth. The Fenix runs even better than the FBW on my PC. There is ONE purchase that makes the difference imho... and that's the in comparison slightly more expensive monitor I bought a month or so after buying my new PC: the 1440p ViewSonic Elite XG270QG. It's an official G-Sync monitor and I honestly do think this is one of the best hardware purchases I've ever done. To me it is a game changer. Almost comparable to what I experienced back in the day when I bought the very first 3dfx card that became available in my home country at the end of 1996 (if I recall correctly). I have done quite a few flights with the Fenix already (since PayPal became available), it is the only plane I fly, I didn't have ANY problems with it. MSFS + Fenix = dream come true. I am having the time of my life (when it comes to flight simming 😉 ).

I am having the time of my life (when it comes to flight simming 😉 ). simply put, there's an element of personal variation/tolerance of performance that differs from individual to individual. if i were to sit down and fly the sim from your PC, i might (MIGHT... don't get bent out of shape 😉 ) find it an unenjoyable experience, while obviously the very same experience is, to you, more than acceptable enough.
August 1, 20223 yr Hello everyone! I'm about to buy Fenix A320, but I'm afraid my pc won't be able to run at a solid 25-30 fps. Pc specs: Intel i5- 10300H Quad core, GTX 1650 max Q design (4 vram) and 16 RAM. Please tell me 🙂 Thanks
October 25, 20232 yr Hi Will I be able to run the fenix a320 smoothly with following specs Cpu- INTEL i7-13700HX Ram-16 gb( DDR5) Gpu- Nvidia rtx 4060 8gb

Just make sure you use 4k textures though, and not the 8k default. Edited October 25, 20232 yr by Makinen11

It all depends on your settings. If you can run a default aircraft smoothly you will also be able to run the Fenix smoothly - maybe with the settings (above all the terrain LOD) reduced a litte. For example if you get 60 FPS with a default aircraft and a Terrain LOD setting of 200 you have the choice to 1. run the Fenix at 50 FPS with the same Terrain LOD setting of 200 or 2. run the Fenix at the same 60 FPS with a reduced TLOD setting of 100. All just rough estimates of ocurse. But all in all you souldn't worry about the performance of the Fenix.
