Very well written !

That would be great for most of us.

In the past IOBIT Game Booster was the best. Now it has been improved : https://www.razer.com/cortex/boost I did not try it yet ...

That is what I use : 2x 1080Ti If I sell them I need to add € 300 for 1 2080 Ti to see almost the same performance.

For € 550 I sell them seperately. I prefer € 1000 together.

AA, resolution, clouds,, waterrefelctiins and shadows are the settings that tax the gpu .... The more of then the bigger the difference in fps between different cards.

Here I have a 2/3 real size cockpit and therefore multiple monitors in a curve : 40” seperate - 32” + 32” NVSurround

That I didn’t know. Here I am using 3x 1920x1080. Than you should indeed go for the 2080.

I totally agree with you 1080 Ti performance = 2080 performance

Here I have 2 Gigabyte 1080 Ti Gaming OC cards for 1000 euro’s together for sale.

It is only of use if you use lots of shadows enabled icw high AA settings . But that makes the Sim look much more realistic ....

See Rob's Medium, High and Very High Settings for testing. I am sure with High and certainly with Very High Settings you will see a (big) difference between your 980Ti and 2080Ti card. You just need to up the settings that tax the graphics card...

@Rob : check your Vegetation Receive shadows. Otherwise clouds/terrain shadows will show their shadows on buildings and sim objects ( eg : addon airports ) and not on trees/forest... It really has surprised me that almost everyone is only focusing on shadows in the VC and not having clouds/terrains shadows enabled...

On my triple view system I have seem my C drive ( SSD 600 ) maxing out many times when flying in detailed scenery . And P3Dv4.3 was installed on drive D ( also SSD 600 )...

It adds a little more smootness at the cost of a little framerate. But If you system cannot run the Vsync framerate it will cause extra jittering.
