November 12, 20241 yr Based on MSFS2024 PC specs I should Upgrade my current PC ($4000 USD) or get a new PC ($6000 USD). I will wait and read the reports / reviews first. Best Regards, Vaughan Martell PP-ASEL KDTW

November 12, 20241 yr For the first time I wont be jumping in right away to a new sim - I have pre purchased so I can dabble eventually but I have so much setup into 2020 and frankly so far I haven't seen anything in 2024 that makes me go "I want that now".  I want to see some real life shake out reviews first - plus I have some concern that once I load I am going to see some conflicts with 2020 that I dont want to have to track down.  I pretty much have 2020 in a perfect state right now.
November 12, 20241 yr For me it's a financial consideration. 2020 is running smoothly on my system at medium to low settings. It seems 2024 would in fact require a system upgrade. So I'll likely sit on the sidelines for a while. The price of the sim itself wouldn't be too big of an issue, but I'll wait and see how much better 2024 appears to be before deciding on a major upgrade etc. Time and money actually. If one considers time is money, it's also better for me to stick with what I know for a bit, rather than spending a lot of time fiddling around with a bunch of new stuff. But honestly, if I currently had better hardware, I'd probably buy 2024 right away and at least mess around with the basic stuff, while keeping 2020 as my current main sim a bit longer.
November 12, 20241 yr Instant buy, but I'm not optimistic we could immediately use it 100% as a replacement for 2020.

November 12, 20241 yr Yesterday morning I made my final flight in MSFS2020, a short route from Niagara (CYSN) to London (CYXU) in the Comanche. It was a nice leisurely flight made at 3,000 feet and my good bye flight to a simulator I have spent a few thousand hours in over the past 3.25 years. Yesterday evening I cleaned out my desk and installed my new PC and today I will begin setting it up and then go over to Microsoft and pre-purchase 2024, ready to download a week from now! I am looking forward to continuing the journey and am happy to be free of all the addons I acquired over 2020 and ready to start fresh in 2024, so no need to wait for compatibility. A sincere thank you to all those at Asobo who had the foresight and capability to bring a next-gen sim to market and to reinvigorate my enjoyment of flight simulation. MSFS 2024. Primary Planes: Black Square TBM850, Duke, Baron, Caravan; A2A Comanche; FSReborn Phenom; Fexix A321; PMDG 737-7, 777: Utilities: Active Sky (Passive Mode); BATC, FSLTL.
November 12, 20241 yr My 2020 is working perfectly. I will wait, and read the reports from the first day adopters, and until the aircraft I fly, PMDG737-777 and Fenix A 320 are all working in 2024.   Â
November 12, 20241 yr Buy ASAP. By the time I've worked out the controls, all the bugs will have been fixed. 😉 FS2024 • PMDG 738, 77F • FSL A321 • A2A Comanche, Aerostar • BS Baron, Bonanza, Caravan Pro • JF Tomahawk • TAOG H500C BeyondATC • GSX Pro • ChasePlane & Flow Pro • TDS GTNXi • FSUIPC • AutoFPS • RealTurb 9800X3D B650E • ROG OC RTX 5090 • 64GB DDR5-6000 • VKB Gladiator, STECS, T-Rudder • Tobii 5 • ISP 1 Gbps
November 12, 20241 yr 1 hour ago, Antipodeslonghaul said: it seems 2024 would in fact require a system upgrade. based on what facts? in fact, the opposite is true as about everyone who had a chance to try out MSFS2024 Alpha has confirmed it ran smoother than MSFS2020 (including myself) due to code optimisation in MSFS2024. (more multi threaded, more code offloaded to GPU for massive parallel computing of CFD etc. (GPU computing)): unprecedented 98% GPU load even on my RTX 4090 and 45-50% CPU load on 8 cores AMD 7800x3D speaks for itself: Edited November 12, 20241 yr by turbomax AMD 7800X3D, Windows 11, Gigabyte X670 AORUS Elite AX Motherboard, 64GB DDR5 G.SKILL Trident Z5 NEO RGB (AMD Expo), RTX 4090, Samsung 980 PRO M.2 NVMe SSD 2 TB PCIe 4.0, Samsung 980 PRO M.2 NVMe SSD 1 TB PCIe 4.0, 4K resolution 50" TV @60Hz, VR: Pimax Crystal Light + HP Reverb G2 @ 90 Hz, Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant, be quiet 1000W PSU, Noctua NH-U12S chromax.black air cooler. 60-130 fps. no CPU overclocking. very nice.

November 12, 20241 yr  Let the dust settle first, last couple of days MSFS has been dropping offline with "low bandwidth" issues. Nothing wrong on my end at all... How they are going to manage 2024 I really don't know. G Gary Davies aka "Gazzareth" Simming since 747 on the Acorn Electron
