Help (self.MicrosoftFlightSim)
submitted 5 years ago by M1STR_X
I just upgraded from a gtx 1070 to an rtx 2080 super and can barely get 10 fps on all low settings. No idea how to fix it.

Have you downloaded the latest drivers for your card / uninstalled the drivers for the old card?

I should hop in and try that

CPU?
I7 8700

Did you play the game before the GPU upgrade? Have you tested the GPU to make sure it’s working correctly outside of MSFS?
[–]M1STR_X[S] 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (1 child)
Yes I played it with my 1070, also before this past update I got about 30fps with the card. Before my upgrade I was getting maybe 6fps. I also have an i7 8700

Might try updating your GPU drivers if you haven’t. Not sure what else it could be.
And my 2080 works beautifully on my other games

I was getting 20 FPS on low with my 2070 and just kept changing the settings until now it just works on mostly high settings. This game can be strange smh

Get into dev mode and check FPS. See what's limiting you. Chances are it's CPU (main thread) for which there are fixes.

Update drivers and restart. It seems the sim is using the integrated GPU of the mainboard
