Just tried it out and works like a charm 👌 Thank you so much for coming up with a solution!

This is awesome news, can't wait to try it out 👍

Hi Mark, Just curious if you heard anything more about this from PMDG? We all know PMDG are not known to be the fastest guys on the block when it comes to releasing updates but based on what you said how you thought the required update of the SDK wouldn't be too far off and with a recent update of the 737, I wanted to ask. Very much looking forward being able to use the more modern layout of the FMC now when it's available in the sim and you already did the ground-work on your side.

Many thanks for the update Mark, much appreciated!

Check the order confirmation/receipt and try using the email address you find there.

I initially had the same problem, screen stayed black on my tablet but the LSK:s worked. In my case, after restarting my PC and MSFS, the problem was fixed. I suppose you already tried that and if so, I would get in touch directly with Mark the developer for assistance.

Yep, works over here as well 👍

After always having used Intel and with very high requirements on performance doing all my flying in high resolution VR using complex airliners in and out of payware airports and always on Vatsim with lots of other traffic around me, I couldn't be more happy with the 9950X3D I'm using now paired with a 5090. I don't see myself going back to Intel unless they release something which clearly outperforms the equivalent top chip from AMD. The 9950X3D2 sounds very interesting, will keep my eyes open for it 👍

Is aviaServer compatible with the newly released PMDG 737-800 for MSFS2024 yet?

Must say I'm very happy with my AMD rig! I'm now on MSFS2024 SU3 but still doing the same type of flying - online on Vatsim in the iFly 737 MAX8 in VR. Initially struggled to have the same smoothness as in MSFS2020 but then dropped the resolution in SteamVR to match the native resolution of the MGX and switched too TAA instead of DLSS Quality. Was properly surprised I have the best smoothness I think I ever had using these settings. Surprised since I previously always experienced how TAA isn't as smooth as DLSS. Do note this is with SU3. Where SU4 is supposed to be WAY better. So I can't wait for SU4 to be released! Considering the awesome smoothness I already have with SU3. Should also mention I ended up not using Process Lasso. The AMD service for X3D optimisation together with Game mode enabled in Windows already does a great job putting all the heavy lifting on the right CCD (CCD0) with the extra cache 👍

Thanks, already on the latest of all these and now I'm just about to try out Process Lasso to see what that might bring to the table.

Today, I did my first flight after replacing my 13900K with the 9950X3D with a new motherboard and 64 GB DDR5 6000MHZ CL32 RAM and must say I’m pleasantly surprised! Best way to describe it is how I went from like 85-90 % smoothness to like 95+ % in the iFly 737 MAX8. Which was exactly what I was hoping for. Wasn’t expecting it though after my last visit in AMD land when I certainly didn’t see this improvement. Further testing required but felt great being surprised in this positive way after the money and effort which went into this. I think this is a keeper 👍

Thanks, that's very kind of you. However, since I do all my flying in VR using the native resolution in the MeganeX Superlight 8K, that is the the only data which is truly of interest to me. I think I already mentioned it above but back when I tried a 9800X3D with my 4090, I quickly discovered how the gain over my 13900K was considerably more in 2D mode over VR. What would be interesting is if you saw any big difference between the 9800X3D and the 9950X3D in similar scenarios in MSFS. 2020 most interesting to me since I still haven't jumped to 2024 but will do eventually. So also any testing you did between these two CPUs in 2024 would be of interest.

I agree the 5090 is crazy expensive but in my experience, it's when running at very high resolution you start seeing its pure power vs the 4090. Reason I replaced my 4090 with a 5090 was exactly that, the very high resolution in the MGX. Where the 5090 even at full native resolution leaves me with being bottle necked by my 13900K. Didn't get a chance to compare since I sold my 4090 but I don't think I would have seen the same thing with the 4090.

Thanks for sharing your experience! Looks like the 9800X3D is the better option but will try to dig around a bit more. What will be most interesting if I decide to give replacing my 13900K a second go is what difference it will be that I'm now pairing it with a 5090 instead of a 4090.
