I honestly have not seen a lot of message traffic from those who tested the SU10 Beta, and have like most, just updated to SU11 today.  A great happy anniversary splash screen, what looks like an amazing default A310, gliders, and some other various new aircraft.  What is there in actual sim tech enhancements? DX12 & Nvidia DLSS improvements/enhancements?  Is another updated nVidia game ready driver needed?  I have a very good system with a Gigabyte RTX3080 12GB GPU. What options should I be trying after SU11?  Currently still on full 4K, DX11, TAA (both due to SU10 slight VC fuzziness with DX12/DLSS).  Am on 50% monitor refresh (30fps), LOD 200, OOD 100, and on Ultra settings except with water waves, trees, and grass.  Motion Blur at Medium, Bloom On, Lens Correction Off. Glass Cockpit Refresh Medium.  Flying Hjet, Milviz 310C, the 414W, Kodiak, and modded Asobo Baron and Bonanza.

So what are expectations for tech enhancement?

Assuming you mean "A310" there... did you read the release notes at https://www.flightsimulator.com/release-notes-for-40th-anniversary-edition-sim-update-11-1-29-27-0-now-available/ ? Should be able to find out from there what all the sim tech advancements are. Of course the biggest IMO would be all the aerodynamics and physics improvements around gliders and helicopters, and also the atmospheric CFD airflow (i.e. more advanced simulation of thermals & other airflow) discussed at length here: https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/626199-is-anybody-else-excited-about-the-new-20-km-cfd-in-su11/

I hope that the weather system has improved. Flying is moving through air and credible weather system is (for me) perhaps the most important aspect of this wonderful sim. I want that sometimes the weather is so bad that one just can not fly. Or if one tries, it can end with a tragedy....

You must have missed this whole thread:

Plus, thermals is in SU 11, along with proper helicopter physics.

Yes, especially the new features.  What I was inquiring about was beta users actual experiences.  i.e. is improvement experienced/perceived?  And with what settings combinations?  I got a new game ready driver alert from nVidia yesterday.  Is that needed for the DX12 and DLSS3 tweaks?  Anything specific needed or usefull in nVidia Contol Panel?  Etc.

First update your Nvidia driver.

I am really enjoying the clouds and WX. Climbing up to 38000, hitting bases at 1000 and exiting the completely opaque soup at 25000 makes a quantum advancement in flight sim clouds. Nothing like current MSFS clouds has existed in flight simulators, at least desktop ones and dare I suggest some level-D and friends?
