Hi. Please need help. I use FS2020 in VR: HP Reverb G2. I had EVGA RTX 3080 TI 12GB video card, figured out my FS2020 settings the way i like, also using OpenXR. All the way i like. and in not busy airport i could get up to 40FPS, in busy up to 30. I just replaced video card with PNY RTX 4080 TI Super Verto Overclocked triple fan 16GB. I kept all settings the same and made sure they are the same. With new card i get exactly SAME FPS!!! Not even 1 more FPS - just same FPS!!! 😞 Why? I do not want to lower my setting to get more FPS because i can do same thing with my old EVGA RTX 3080 TI card and just return RTX 4080 TI Super. Seem like RTX 4080 TI Super is Garbage. My CPU is i5-13600kf, RAM DDR5 32GB, SSD drive, Windows 10. Cpu and gpu are not at 100% at all: with slow fps about 30-40 gpu is 50%, cpu can go up to 65%. All drivers are up to date. If i can't get better FPS with RTX 4080 TI Super using same simple settings then what is the purpose in new card. I do not want to see if i get better FPS in standard 2D SF2020 mode because i believe will probably. I used 3D mark to test old card and then new card and i got more FPS with new card - but that was all 2D not VR. Thoughts?

Using the MSFS graphics setting Reprojection Mode set to Depth throttles FPS to around 45 with a G2, regardless of GPU power.  If you have enabled Motion Reprojection in OpenXR, that will throttle the FPS to hold either a constant 30 or 45 fps.  Though if you're running with a consistent 40 fps, I imagine that you don't have either of these in use.

Should have added that even without the MSFS setting, the VR software throttles the G2 FPS to around 45 (if it can't sustain around 90).  To get around this FPS limiting behavior, use either "prefer frame rate over latency" in the WMR toolkit or "turbo mode" in the OpenXR toolkit (they both do the same thing).  BTW, with the way that the G2 VR display works this frame limiting is a good thing in terms of reducing/eliminating judder.  I use an external FPS limit of 45 for optimal smoothness.
