Hell no, You must be assuming that everyone sits in front of a single 32". Flying a triple 4k viewgroup setup into dense airports needs a 4 series card period. Even with the specs you outlined above the framerates are borderline with sliders at medium settings. With a 3090 it's a stutter fest. So do you need it? Yep, sure do and frame generation would make it even better

Quite snarky comment of yours. Then it is time for you to see this: Spoiler As you can see I am quite a large fan of ORBX and their P3D products. Also if you did not noticed there is no True Earth package I do not own. So, high level of detail requires high level machine like this. I put the sliders all the way right, because, unlike you, I have YT channel and I produce content there. Also FYI I play more than one simulation game. Mhm. And please, stop being so mean. Also FYI I know CGI effects. Can you brag about that? Edited September 26, 20232 yr by PavlinS

September 26, 20232 yr On 9/24/2023 at 9:33 AM, Nuno Pinto said: Frame generation... Hope it dies a quick death like 3D TV. Rather have 60 real frames than 60 real and 60 fake for "120". Lampooning "fake" interpolated frames kinda misses the point. P3D's internal flight dynamics engine runs at a 55ms (~18 Hz) refresh rate, which means parameters like attitude, airspeed, and position are updated 18 times per second. Some parameters, like OAT (which affects indicated altitude and mach number) only update once per second. So when you run an advanced panel...a PMDG or FSL bird, for example, that 30Hz or higher smooth panel display you're seeing is done by interpolating between the FDE updates to produce the data used to display the intervening frames between FDE updates. If it weren't, the needles and tapes would be stepwise and jerky...and once upon a time it used to be that way. So whether the interpolation is being done in the panel software to produce so-called "real" (yet still interpolated from sim data) frames, or done in the GPU to produce an interpolated needle or tape position in a so-called "fake" frame, it's really just a matter of semantics--a nothingburger if you understand the underlying processes. FG goes further by being able to interpolate the predictable changes between frames of smooth motion across the entire frame, e.g. things like terrain and object movement. Unless you're flying insanely abrupt maneuvers like snap rolls and Lomcevoks, the interpolation and/or small-perturbation extrapolation is really quite good. Interpolated data is interpolated data, regardless of what process produces it. And truth be told, in the end, every frame is a "fake" frame--the entire simulation is, at its foundations, a computer-generated approximation, after all. Personally, I wish we had the option of using FG in every sim I fly. I don't know that I'd go so far as to call it a "gamechanger", but I do find it a welcome enhancement to the experience.

Someone is hypocritical I see. I can make any video you throw at me 60 FPS. I have Smooth Video Project Pro, I have Adobe After Effects and Twixtor in it. I have Frame Replacer in Optical Flow at DaVinci Resolve. As you can see I am not only a flight simmer, but also professional video editor. I can manipulate keyframe, I know how. So, no matter you judge me as you judge, fact is, I can make the worse video ever, to have only 25 fps or less looking ravishing. If you do not believe me, here, check my YT channel in description. It contains bunch of videos [31] that can show you what I can do. You might say I am not aware of what I am doing, but fact is, those 222 people in my channel say otherwise.

September 27, 20232 yr I don't really know because I never used frame generation, and I believe Nvidia and AMD will do their best to implement it and it's probably going to be arather clever implementation, but my experience with external smoothing algorithms, in various flight simulation applications, has never been satisfactory, a good example being the external visuals solutions for Aerowinx PSX, used to give PSX users the World as seen through P3D, XP or now even MFS, while at the control of their PSX 744... It never blends correctly with the underlaying flight dynamics... specially on those tricky approaches under bad weather / turbulence / shear... This all reminds me of the discussions on interlaced displays in some home computers / game consoles of the early 80s 🙂 Interesting comparison here: Why Do People Hate DLSS 3 Frame Generation? - YouTube particularly at this point where he refers to MFS: Edited September 27, 20232 yr by jcomm Flying gliders since 1980 Flightsimming since 1992 AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB, 1 TB and 500 GB nvme2 SSD drives, HP 27" 60Hz LED monitor @ 1920x1080, T16000, Hotas from old X52 Pro, Saitek Combat Rudder Pro (2010 model)
September 27, 20232 yr In my case frame generation was/is indeed a game changer for a rather simple reason: Cities and large airports plus ai traffic. The combination of those three things, especially together, all too often succeeded in lowering my FPS to the point that I was then forced to lower my settings in a way I didn't enjoy (as much) in order to have a smooth experience while landing. A case in point was visible stuttering/hitching when on low approach to London especially in any "heavy" aircraft. Was it doable if you had no choice? Yes. Was it satisfactory? Well no, not really, but again what choice did we have? Like many, I was left fiddling with levels of ai, lod levels etc to try and keep things smooth as situations and the load changed in various areas. Honestly, how often have we heard people throughout the various sub-fora complaining over the years about "bad optimization" of various airports/aircraft because of FPS? Especially with ai aircraft also active. Care to try that in New York? How often do a lot of us upgrade repeatedly over the years chasing the dream of realism in the form of smoothness? How many zillion "guides" and eureka posts have we read? Frame generation suddenly, a least for me, made low fps scenarios pretty much of a nothing-burger. Abruptly the 60 fps while free-and-clear in the air, which so often dropped into an unsatisfying 20-something in a big airports, went to 100-something in the air and 60-something at even busy airports notwithstanding ai planes swarming the area. Making a nice , sweeping curve to smoothly line up for touchdown actually became "smooth as butter" and quite smile inducing relative to years of ingrained expectation of microstutters in various sims. Honestly? I don't use P3D and can't imagine anything that would rekindle my interest in that sim. But I also can't imagine why any fan of that sim would pushback (pun intended) against such an advance. At worse, if the tech comes to the sim and somebody is that hidebound, well.... simply don't use it! We are all connected..... To each other, biologically...... To the Earth, chemically...... To the rest of the Universe atomically.
