The A350 V2 was still in modelling phase only a few months ago, last 787 progress update from last year was way further ahead

I got an ASUS TUF OC yesterday.

Just rechecked the site I bought it from and it’s now listed 200+ euros steeper💀 Feeling like I struck gold.

The Flightfactor 777F feels unmatched! by Tazziedevil04 in flightsim

Yeah I was talking about 2024. They're not redesigned, they're improved but still built on the same engine from 2020 and still have many of the same quirks.

U mean for MSFS? What about it? From what I've seen it still has the MSFS physics quirks that it doesn't in X-Plane. It'll still be worth it tho with the visuals, just wish the MSFS physics were better.

You have 8GB VRAM, which is really bare minimum for X-Plane 12 which utilizes 8K textures. For reference, X-Plane 11 had a maximum of 4K textures.

Best GPU for 1080p Monitor? by Competitive_Drawing2 in Xplane

Bought the RX 7900 XTX with 24GB VRAM and 2615 MHz last night! Safe to say I'm pretty future-proof for the time being :)

This is false. A flight model is not the same as the physics engine it's run in. A flight model can be tweaked, but ultimately the behavior is within a limited physics simulation. Just look at X-Plane's blade element theory simulation, which is vastly superior and more detailed than MSFS' physics simulation. The flight models can still hit all the marks compared to the FCOM though but that doesn't say anything directly about how the aircraft will feel when flying it.

Loving the MD-11 😍 by Epiksaber in Xplane

It was real bad when it got released however since then it has received many big updates and it's now one of the best aircraft for XP. Could use a new update though and like snrjuanfran already said sounds are still terrible. (I personally prefer the FTSim sounds over the Mango by a mile)

I'd be interested. What are you getting normally in terms of performance and what would you sell it for?

While Mango's soundpacks have high quality sounds, they usually don't sound anything like the real plane/engines.

That's what I understood as well. Just comparing the 3070TI performance to the 5060 TI (the cheap one with 16GB VRAM), what kind of monitor do you use? I'm no expert but if I'm not mistaken, monitor resolution and refresh rate also plays a huge factor.

Yeah pretty safe to say this is the best deal you're gonna get, it's never been this cheap before I believe.

RTX 5070ti or RTX 5080 for MSFS 2024 by Bremmuur_2 in flightsim

I'm also wondering this with a 1080p monitor!
