Thanks for all the info!

Going to be out of town a lot and would like to pass some of the time with the Sim. What laptops are strong enough to run the Sim with excellent quality and frame rate?

I tried the frame gen with TAA as recommended by ryanbatc and it made quite a difference for the better.

Thanks for the info

When this feature is on the gauge resolution is terrible. Completely blurry and ghosting. Is that a normal function of the super resolution feature?

I don't know what's going on. I have Ryzen 7 5800 X3D and Nvidia 4010 Ti 12GB. I'm getting a very long load time and a frame rate of between 5 and 16. Mostly 5. This is only in Toronto CYYZ. NY is running just fine so it's not the scenery detail.

Went with the Ryzen 7 5800 X3D and Nvidia 4070ti 12GB

I'd really not like to change it all. I just built it in late 2020. I'm thinking of stepping up to a Ryzen 9 5900 and as a few of you suggested, 6800. But that'll come a bit later. Sounds like the CPU may be the bigger issue here. I run it using eyefinity on 3 monitors. If I turn that off and just use the single monitor, the frame rate is exceptional. Even in the bigger cities.

Wonder if I should leave the card and change the CPU

My current setup is: CPU - AMD Ryzen 7 3800X 8-Core Processor - 8 Cores RAM - 32 GB GPU - Graphics - AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT Motherboard - ROG STRIX X570-E GAMING It runs ok but gets stuttery in the big cities. Just looking for something that's a bit better. I'm not hell bent on AMD or NVIDIA. I'd go either way.

I'm using a Yamaha home theater receiver for sound via a digital out from my computer. Will the Buttkicker work with a setup like this?

Got it sorted. For some reason the Sim decided to turn itself to offline. I was able to switch it back on under the Data section in the settings.

I got the update no problem however the Sim doesn't seem to be connected to the internet. My Live weather is greyed out and some of the cities look like they have generic buildings whereas before they were quite detailed.

I was experiencing the same problem. I turned off v-sync. No idea why it was doing it but I'd be perfectly fine for about 15 mins then in the blink of an eye I'd have single digit frame numbers with a very long load time. Even the menu system was choppy.

Great info! Thanks everyone
