Hi

Your laptop is a Ryzen 7 with a Radeon RX Vega 10

try using window mode and locks fps at 30 and this can help you:

Tips (FSX settings) possible FPS or performance killer // Crash to destop (CTD):

Ai traffic

water effects

bloom

High resolution textures

(use 1024x1024) (Global texture resolution must be adjusted to achieve 1024x1024 textures, in FSX SE it coincides with two positions before everything on the right.)

default DX10 doesnt work

DX10 can help a lot to avoid a CTD but only with the DX10SF payment tool, it will reduce the VAS used, although it is not necessary if you use balanced settings in DX9.

FSX VAS:

I also recommend monitoring your VAS with FSUIPC4 tool, click on the logging tab and enter 024c in offset position and type select S32. And finally click on fs title bar.

Another trick to using FSX is that by default it has a full-screen memory leak so it is mandatory to use window mode.

High Autogen and complex secenery settings

High density and draw clouds

Looks like your laptop is throttling, not because of temperatures but maybe because of power draw. What exact CPU do you have?
