Hi fellow simmers, trying to dial down with most of my settings set to high not Ultra these quick little spikes where my CPU would reach about 80% and my audio would make a sound like the sim is goiong to lock up, but then it would contune like normal. Most of the times this would happen when I change view, like to check out the wings views. Turned off Game Mode to see if that would fix the issue, and even adjusted my Auto Frame app to have the max LOD be 200 instead of 300  when at higher altutude to see if that would make a difference the issue was still there.  MSFS2020 never had these issues and I just tried it to see if it would happend with 2020 but ran just fine.

Running a 4080, undervolted 5800x3D, 64gig memory

I have my frames locked at 40 using Riva Tuner and also have a monitor with 240mhz, and using fixed refresh rate istead of G-Sync.

Anyone else getting this issue with FS24?

i have the same problem and running 5800x3d and a 4080

Yes, it happens on almost every flight. Turning SMT on in the BIOS helped, but the issue is still there. Very annoying. Didn’t happen in 2020.

I would hope this has been reported to Asobo

WOW, and you are running better specs...

A bit random advice, back when I did ran a 5800x3d, I also had it undervolted, everything run perfect, but DCS was stuttering in Multiplayer, I got rid of the agressiv undervolt and voila all good in DCS Multiplayer.

So now I run 7800x3d but I have my framerate capped at 60 FPS with FG (so actually 30 FPS), I have very seldom the dredded crackling.

Hmm, this was happening before the undervolt on this 5800x3D unfortunatly

Are you using on board sound on MB, or do you have separate sound card?

on board sounds, but also disabled the Nvidia sounds and only using Realtek, maybe I should also install the Nvidia sounds

I’ve got HDMI connected to the stereo, nvidia audio driver. Not sure if that is a good or a bad thing.

I don't use on board MB sound because it adds more work for the CPU. I use sound blaster card that has it's own processor and let my system CPU handle other processes.

It has nothing to with your audio hardware. I have a 9800X3D and I was getting the spikes. I noticed the spikes happen in heavy PG areas when the sim is downloading large amounts of data and injecting it into the sim. I assume the CPU is hitting 100%.

Correct, I would notice a very quick spike around 80%+ along with the sound stutter sound like its going to lock up, then its normal again. I have a video of this happening, will post it later today. I also show my settings and also have the MS2024 frame rate popup on the screen.

Same, worse when there’s heavy CPU usage. I’ve got a 16-core CPU though (32 threads with SMT) so it’s a bit strange.

It's definitely a bug that needs to be fixed next update because some PG regions are fine, no spikes but I find the LA area to have the most freezes and spikes.
