January 4, 20242 yr This morning I posted about it at the MFS forum: Resizable BAR ... - Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020) - The AVSIM Community Apparently it's not of much use in MFS, which is inherently optimised, and some of the users commented that it's only meant to be used in some programs which are ready to profit from it, and otherwise may even cause disruption, but, I wonder if any of you have tried to use it with P3D, specially starting v5 with DX12...

January 4, 20242 yr ReBAR should always be on. If required, it will be used if not, no harm done. Resizable BAR essentially makes the entirety of the graphics frame buffer accessible to the CPU at once, so if it needs to, it can address whatever it requires. Mostly like a driver, it sits there for when something needs to use it.

I believe it has to be enabled through the BIOS if it doesn't appear as an option in the NI advanced settings?

January 4, 20242 yr Commercial Member rBAR is in the driver settings as well. I suspect you need to enable it there, too. GPU-z should tell you if it's enabled at the hardware level. Cheers Luke Kolin I make simFDR, the most advanced flight data recorder for FSX, Prepar3D and X-Plane.

In the BIOS it can have multiple designations, some even refer to it as "Above 4G decoding", my BIOS clearly says "Resizable BAR support".

Well, my MAG B550 Torpedo (MS-7C91) BIOS when I click to: - enable "Re-Size BAR Support" also enables an option right bellow it named - "Above 4G memory/Crypto Currency mining", which I then manually disabled... After returning to Win11 the Re-Size option was still OFF :-/ but after using that great "COPILOT" friend UI found a youtube where the author explains that the other "Above 4G..." option must also be enabled for it to work :-) 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)
