January 3, 20251 yr My pc specs are currently in my auto sig. I have a 3080 TI and was curious for MSFS 2024 (flying Fenix and 3rd party airports with high/ultra settings), what would I gain by uploading my GPU to a 4090 card and upgrading my ram to 64? My performance is ok but I feel like I can get more out of the sim possibly. Or would it be minimal?

January 3, 20251 yr If I'm not mistaken, you might be CPU-limited. Therefore, I wouldn't recommend the 4090. Perhaps saving some money for a new PC would be a much better option. 747 Captain for the last 39 years, and still learning.
January 3, 20251 yr I upgraded to 64GB. It was cheap and made a big difference. My spec are the same as yours. You don't need a new PC. Lon Duncombe

I thought the memory might help but I wasn't sure about the GPU.

January 4, 20251 yr FS24 is certainly VRAM hungry, doubling your VRAM would not be a waste for sure.
