All i did regards the blur is to put sharpening at between 10 to 20 percent in nvida control panel.

Whereabouts do I find this setting in the nVidia Control Panel?

Should be near the top in global and also in the MSFS exe in there too. Not sur if its because i also use the scaling thing NIS.

Got it!

Because it's titled Image Scaling, never looked at it.  It's only when you click the drop down it then says 'Image Scaling and Sharpening'!!

Great stuff - many thanks.  I'll have a play with the settings tomorrow and report back 😉

Thanks again

Why? They’re designed to run hot. Get as much performance out of them as possible I say, that’s what you’re paying for! 

Yeah i know, i got obsessed with it, then found undervolting then found running optimal performance setting.

The fact that i can use MSFS at 1080p on mostly ultra and the GPU is sometimes using just 1200mhz, for me shows that running at 'prefer maximum performance' is IMO and for my needs, pointless waste creating a hot card when its not necessary.

Obviously if i wanted to push it I'd be going higher resolution monitor etc, but at 1080p it just doesn't need to be forced to run at maximum.

I do bang the drum for nvidias 'optimal performance' as it works perfectly.

Is hiperthreading useful at DX12  ? I have a 6 cores processor, and tried both enabled and disabled, and the only diference I noticed was that when enabled, percentage CPU usage is lower.

Unless you are going for big overclocks that generate a lot of heat on the chip, these days, there is no need to disable hyperthreading. 
And as for the newer CPU's (12900k, 5800X3D etc.) I wouldn't even bother trying to overclock them.

This disable hyperthreading thing seems to be a remnant from FSX and P3D, where single threaded performance was everything, and disabling hyperthreading sometimes meant you could get a few hundred Hertz more on your main thread if you were lucky!

These days, MSFS uses as many cores/threads as it can, and with DX12, even better, whereas FSX etc. used only one core / thread, so it needed one really fast one if you could get it.

So basically, unless you are having specific problems, I would leave hyperthreading on for MSFS.
