Not sure if you’re aware, but here’s a review of the RTX 5090 done by Techtesters.
GeForce RTX 5090 Review - 45 Games Tested (4K, 1440p, 1080p + DLSS 4)
She did the tests with an AMD Ryzen 7 9800 X3D CPU system, since that’s the fastest gaming CPU today. All the other specs for her test system are included below on that page.
As the title says, she evaluated the performance for 4K, 1440p and 1080p monitors. In addition, she conducted a series of retests using an RTX 4090 and an AMD Radeon RX 79000 XTX, since that’s the fastest GPU that AMD currently has, and those results are included for comparison with the 5090 ones.
As the title also says, she conducted tests on 45 games. Of great interest to me, and I presume you, one of the 45 was FS 2020 and a second was FS 2024.
At (4+25) she starts showing detailed FPS results for the first game on her list – Alan Wake 2, which is not relevant to our community, but will give you an idea about the form in which she collected the individual results.
At (8+15), she introduces performance summaries for all 45 games, and each summary page includes “Microsoft Flight Simulator - Ultra” (presumably FS 2020 running at ultra settings) and “Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 - Ultra” (FS 2024 on ultra). At (9+55), she switches to show results in % rather than FPS, but again includes the two FS results.
She notes, on a number of occasions that some of results, and FS 2020 and FS 2024, in particular, are CPU-limited, which our community understands very well.
Later she has good observations about Frame Generation and DLSS, and particularly the fact that DLSS 4 will be of great benefit to users of FS 2020 and FS 2024.
She doesn’t mention anything about this, but hopefully she will be conducting similar tests with an RTX 5080 in the next week or so, and present the results in a video when Nvidia lets those come out.
I have to make a decision between those two GPUs for use with a new system that will be virtually identical to the one she used. I am planning to use it to run FS 2024.
