  1. I own both the FSL and the Fenix, and I had my brother (real A320 pilot) test it out thoroughly. He says the Fenix behaves much more closely to the real aircraft. The handling is close to being very true to real life. FSL is good too, but handling and flight dynamics wise Fenix is a better representation of the real thing.
  2. No. Didn’t get anywhere close to being saturated.
  3. I didn’t pay attention to specifically just texture loading... but pretty much everything else i was looking at loaded much faster... autogen, buildings, lod, scenery objects. And the sim loaded much faster as well.
  4. 5950x is on avg 10-15% faster than the 8700k at ghz. 8700k HT on. With HT off, i get stutters.
  5. Hi folks, got my 5950X (for MSRP!) and had the opportunity to run a few benchmarks for you all. Hardware: 8700k (at 5.0 GHZ), Asus Z370-A Prime, 8x4GB DDR4 3200 CL 16-18-18-32, Noctua NH-u14s 5950X and Asus X570-E Gaming, 2x16GB DDR4 3600 CL 16-19-19-39, Corsair H115i RGB PRO XT GeForce RTX 2080 (both systems). Addons Prepar3d V5.1 HF1 FSL a320X (latest) ORBX (latest) Aerosoft Heathrow (Latest). Benchmark Scenario Take off from EGLL 9L, climb to 3000, turn right and intercept 27L for ILS CAT III Autoland. Entire flight on AP, no panning or changing views. P3D settings pretty much maxed out, but without EA. No weather, clear sky, Daytime. No GPU bottleneck, utilization less than 70% at all times. Configuration Average FPS Min FPS Max FPS 1% Lows 0.1% Lows 5950X PBO 45.6 26.9 56.6 25.0 21.5 5950X PBO (SMT OFF) 47.3 37.5 65.9 32.9 27.9 8700K @ 5.0 41.3 29.7 54.3 25.2 19.8 Observations Even at stock, the 5950x gameplay was significantly smoother than the 8700K at 5.0 ghz. Sim, scenery load, autogen loading were significantly faster on the 5950x. There was NO stutters at all with the 5950x, the 8700k has intermittent "regular" micro stutters especially in autogen dense areas.
  6. On the CPU front, i think their selection criteria might have something to do with the L2 Cache, as well has memory bandwidth. CPU Mem Bandwidth L2 Cache 9900K 39.74 GB/s 2 MB (8x256 KB) 9800X 79.47 GB/s 8 MB (8x1 MB) 2700 Pro 43.71 GB/s 4 MB (8x512 KB)
  7. Yes, intel chips are still the optimal cpus for p3d solely because of their overclocking ability, if you’re after the last extra fps. More importantly what i wanted to show is that even under very resource intensive sim scenarios, amd chips like that 3800x will provide more than adequate performance to maintain 30fps and provide smooth 30fps locked gameplay.
  8. On my system, overclocking fclk did not scale as well as cpu frequency... but 1% lows improved quite a bit.
  9. 8700K at 4.4 ghz Average framerate : 34.6 FPS Minimum framerate : 28.0 FPS Maximum framerate : 39.0 FPS 1% low framerate : 24.5 FPS 0.1% low framerate : 18.6 FPS
  10. I tested the 3800x at various frequencies from 4 ghz to 4.4 ghz, the increase in fps is pretty much linear.
  11. Benchmark scenario Takeoff from (Aerosoft Heathrow) EGLL 9L, Climb straight to 3000, turn right and intercept ILS 27L, autoland). No weather. (P3Dv4 All sliders to Max) Addons P3Dv4.4 HF2, ORBX FTX Global, Aerosoft Heathrow, FSL a320X (Latest ver). System Specs 1. 8700K (5.0ghz, AM 1365), Noctua NH-U14s, 32GB DDR4 3200 CL16 (4x8GB), RTX 2080, 1440p resolution. 2. 3800X (4.375ghz, HT Off), Stock cooler, 32GB DDR4 3200 CL16 (4x8GB), RTX 2080, 1440p resolution. Results 8700K Average framerate : 38.1 FPS Minimum framerate : 31.6 FPS Maximum framerate : 42.3 FPS 1% low framerate : 27.3 FPS 0.1% low framerate : 22.6 FPS 3800X Average framerate : 34.4 FPS Minimum framerate : 28.0 FPS Maximum framerate : 38.6 FPS 1% low framerate : 26.7 FPS 0.1% low framerate : 24.1 FPS Observations 3800X performs worst with SMT enabled (but still smoother than 8700k stock with no AM). It performed much better with AM 21845, but performed best with SMT disabled. Also, disabling SMT brought down temps by 10c atleast. My 3800x system OC was limited by operating temps, the stock cooler couldnt handle a 4.5ghz all core OC, even though it was stable. Also, going from 3200c16 2x8GB to 4x8GB improved performance by atleast 5%. With default PBO boost, 3800x clocks were hovering around 4.1-4.3ghz, but weren't steady, hence requiring an all core OC, which stabilized clocks. Feel free to ask any questions and suggestions you have. I'll try my best to test it out in the sim.
  12. I did a small series of benchmarks with different memory speeds. Scenario was Aerosoft EGLL, P3dv4.5 HF2, FSlabs a320x (newest version), take-off from 9L, fly straight out to 3000ft, turn right to intercept ILS and auto-land back at 27L. These tests are much too small to provide any quality data, but these data correlate perfectly to Geekbench 3 memory scores as well. The difference is measurable, but is it noticeable? Probably not. However, frame-times were much more consistent at 3400 16-19-19-38. 3200 16-18-18-38 (XMP) Prepar3D.exe benchmark completed, 20243 frames rendered in 529.984 s Average framerate : 38.1 FPS Minimum framerate : 31.6 FPS Maximum framerate : 42.3 FPS 1% low framerate : 27.3 FPS 0.1% low framerate : 22.6 FPS 3400 16-19-19-38 (Tight Secondary, Tertiary Timings) Prepar3D.exe benchmark completed, 20667 frames rendered in 522.125 s Average framerate : 39.5 FPS Minimum framerate : 34.6 FPS Maximum framerate : 44.4 FPS 1% low framerate : 29.8 FPS 0.1% low framerate : 23.2 FPS 3500 16-20-20-38 (Tight Secondary, Tertiary Timings) Prepar3D.exe benchmark completed, 20222 frames rendered in 510.797 s Average framerate : 39.5 FPS Minimum framerate : 31.8 FPS Maximum framerate : 44.4 FPS 1% low framerate : 28.3 FPS 0.1% low framerate : 22.5 FPS
  13. I tested 3200 c16 memory at 3400 c16, 3600 c16. There was barely any difference. However i did see a 4-6% difference on going from 2x8gb to 4x8gb. This is due to dram interleaving. And yes, prices have already begun to rise, so maybe a good time to upgrade memory and storage.
