I will put all addons on the E cores . Sometimes when my 2DOF flight seat is moving I get a small stutter in MSFS. If it cannot “touch” MSFS (P cores) then that would already be a good thing.

That’s been my reasoning, and I also load a bunch of addons along with the sim. I figured they won’t need 5.1GHz to run properly, and on the E-cores they won’t compete with the sim.

5,5, that’s a very nice overclock. I think I’ll try without HT too. I’ve always thought that the more threads, the better. But I remember that previously (before MSFS) that I actually turned HT off to achieve a higher overclock.

Or I might just turn off HT, reduce the Vcore and get better temps.

Main core apps , as I call them, usually benefit more from raw power (speed) than lower frequencies + HT enabled.

However, HT might be of use if you have less than 6-8 physical cores.

Not sure wether this topic is still active or interesting to the community. I'm mainly flying in VR on MSFS2020 and I also record most of the sessions using OBS with a (FPS hungry) Stabilizer. I can definitely notice the hit the stabilizer in OBS takes on FPS and stutters occur more frequently, when I'm recording. Thats why I have ordered the new Ryzen 9950x3d, hoping that FPS can be improved. 

What do you think, would CPU affinity make a difference and help performance? Assigning P Cores to the sim and E cores to OBS, etc.?
