nVidia would do well if they released a 5080 with 24GB.

Completely agree.  It's lame that it's 16.  I wouldn't look once at a 5080 if I were using MSFS 2024.  My 16GB on the 4080 is saturated easily once you load it with older 2020 addons.  I have a feeling the old .DDS textures aren't as efficient in 2024 because older airports just make my VRAM spike.

Native 2024 scenery or liveries using the newer . ktx2 files seem to be a little nicer.
