May 12, 20242 yr No discernible performance / quality difference for me, as expected, but I am installing it to try to try to get rid of a 5 second black screen I get at random once per windows session (a known issue, but nobody seems to know how to solve it). It looks like a driver reset to me when it happens. Audio continues in the background and then everything comes back alright, but I have had it happen once in MSFS - luckily not on approach! No random black screen yet with the new driver, but too early to say if it is cured yet. Rob (but call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind).

Not sure why msfs still uses 2.4 by default - Maybe they found that to be more stable - from nemory it provided slightly better visuals at the expense of a little performance. To me it’s baffling that MSFS uses such an outdated version. I think it dates back to autumn ‘22. I don’t have many other games, but my daughter plays a fair bit of Fortnite. And that seems to stay current with DLSS versions (checked with GPU-Z). Edited May 12, 20242 yr by Cpt_Piett 7950X3D | RTX 4090 | 64GB DDR5

I haven't had it today (yet), but I have left my PC downloading unattended for most of the day, so it may have happened while I wasn't watching it. It is fairly harmless, but there are more than a few experiencing it. It happened on my old PC before Christmas as well (with an Nvidia card), so it has been happening for some time. Drivers out of whack or resetting when trying to do something in the background possibly. I can't waste time chasing it any more, so I will ignore it - a minor annoyance.
