See but this is the kind of post that makes me feel like something isn't right with the system haha, there's no way I can put the TLOD at 400 and have everything running smoothly.

It could be, I guess I was expecting a bigger jump coming from the 10900k. It wasn't just comments tho, there were a couple of videos showing the exact settings and addons which I compared to and I had lower performance. It was also a mixed bag of people telling me the FPS I was getting were normal and others saying it was too low lol, so I didn't know what to believe either. If that's the case, hopefully the game gets some optimization soon, because even using your settings I get stutters and FPS drops in big 3rd party airports.

Yeah, it's super frustrating 😑 Everything is new so I don't know if it could be a hardware issue, I've tested a couple of different 7800X3D and a 7950X3D, two sets of DDR5 RAM... Your performance seems extremely good, I can't go over 200 TLOD without it killing the CPU and even 200 already makes the FPS drop into the 20s. Permissions should be fine, and I did try offline. The FPS are a lot better but it's probably because of photogrammetry being turned off rather than a streaming issue. I have Gigabit internet for both download and upload so in theory that shouldn't be an issue.

Using your settings and the ultra preset with TLOD at 200. Also helped, but I wonder how much of it is because there's less real traffic at JFK now compared to the other video. Still some stutters and FPS drops tho, it looks smoother in YT than it does in-game lol

So this is ultra preset, TLOD at 200 and no FSLTL. It's an improvement for sure, but there are still some stutters and spiking when panning. This is the same but with 250 TLOD, as expected going over 200 seems impossible.

It's just the default settings, pressed N when it prompted me if I wanted to change the settings.

I already replied to you over there but I'll paste it here in case you didn't see it: The one getting confused here is you. I sent you a video of exactly what you asked, the FSLTL Fenix thing was a reply to another user. If you scroll up, you can see why I tried those different addons and settings, it was because I found a couple of benchmarks with the same hardware on YT and wanted to compare my performance to them. I’ll give you that I made a mistake cause I said the settings in the JFK vid were the ultra preset and I actually had a few things turned down. It may be chasing ghosts, but I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect something more than stuttering down to 10 FPS with the best system you can buy for this game today, even if I’m using addons. My point here is if I wanted that I could’ve kept the 10900k (which is still a very capable chip, don’t get me wrong) but a 7800X3D or 7950X3D should be showing a notable performance increase. I guess it could be possible that Asobo screwed up with some of the latest updates because the benchmarks I’m comparing to are a few months old.

Not at home right now but I'll let you know tomorrow. I think it probably will help with the stutters, when I did testing with TLOD last week it was definitely the biggest factor for the stutters.

That's with the 7950X3D ^ and using the same settings I posted in the previous page.

I got so frustrated by the entire thing that I just completely built a new PC from scratch, the only parts I kept are the fans. This is on a fresh install of Windows and MSFS again. So yeah, I give up. I think there's nothing else I can do hardware-wise.

Yep, but it doesn't help either.

https://youtu.be/5DkHz9sanvw It’s the same settings as here, with FSLTL on. Fenix A320 with iniBuilds KJFK and TLOD at 220.

To completely rule this out, I got another memory kit today, also 6000 CL30 DDR5 but this one from Corsair. Same exact thing, it's ridiculous how bad the performance is, the 10900k was actually better lol.

Yes, I have EXPO ll and EXPO Tweaked as well, tried both but there's no noticeable performance difference. Thanks for the video, I'll check it out!
