August 27, 20241 yr I haven’t really followed the updates about 2024 as close as many of you… Will our cloud profiles port over so we wouldn’t need to bind controllers again?

August 27, 20241 yr When I recently told my wife that I wanted to spend about £1500 on a new GPU later this year, I was pleasently surprised at her positive reaction. So I'm planning on getting someting like a 5090 when released, but I may as well push her further and try and get a full new rig, I'm now planning on also getting a 9800X3D when they come out which means I also need a new motherboard and 64GB of RAM other components like M.2 Nvme's will transfer over from my old Rig. Anyhow that's how I'm planning on preparing for MSFS 2024, probably not needed, but hey Flight Simming is my main hobby, so why not?

Do note that you can't really defrag an SSD in this day and age. Most software, including Windows' own function will detect the fact that it's an SSD and just run the SSD trim function.
