March 19, 20242 yr Directx 12 with FG using a 3080. I'm old school...been simming for over 40 years, so my expectations are different than those newer to MSF. I'm willing to put up with occasional glitches for higher frame rate and sharper display. It's amusing to read all the minor complaints like unrealistic bolts on the wings or LOD not perfect on the horizon miles away, or live weather not precisely correct, etc. When my wife comes in my office and asks me to do something...that kills immersion a lot more than any rare stuttering.

March 19, 20242 yr DX11. I tried DX12 in the days when it was not that mature and it was not working well. Haven't tried since, mainly because DX11 works good enough for my needs.
March 19, 20242 yr Author Well, my last MSFS 2020 install was on DX12 + FG through FSR3, but now I've reverted to DX11, and so far so good in terms of performance. I intend to use mainly the Fenix and the FBW 320 NEO. My 3060 Ti with just 8GB never gave other than a spurious DXGI error, but this turn around I'll stay DX11 🙂 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)
March 19, 20242 yr How do you all people do with custom camera transitions? I mean, does the camera move violently from one viewpoint to another? I want to go back to DX11 (more stable and no artifacts), but this prevents me from doing so.

Views are a bit weird in MSFS, and I haven't used any drone camera modes ever 😕 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)

March 19, 20242 yr FG is the best thing I ever seen with 40 series cards, effectively doubling my frames turning MSFS liquid smooth. Only downside is that DX12 still in beta, you may encounter some graphics glitches with some 3rd party airports, like some incorrect texturing on the ground. Alexander Colka
