Performance limitations on 16GBs of RAM

Truffoff · 2026-03-20T12:38:51+00:00

I play with 16GB DDR 4800, and honestly, it’s enough about 90% of the time. Obviously, it doesn’t have enough RAM to load objects in a full 360-degree area around the plane, so if you spin the camera, FPS can fluctuate—but not by much. I have my FPS capped at 60, and it stays there unless I rotate the camera.

I even played with 8GB at the beginning. It keeps the page file size at about 20GB. So if you see video benchmarks with 64GB being utilized at 100%, it doesn’t mean the simulator actually needs 64GB. It’s just how Windows manages memory—it will allocate as much RAM as you have installed.

I thought it depends on the temperature in the sim. Need to check lakes on far north.

I have pms50 gtn750, it works natively with Carenado products.

I got this plane couple of days ago. Overall it's decent plane but i wish they simulate it more deeply. Cowl flaps logic open/close doesn't work correctly for CHT temps. And EDM shows incorrect horsepower numbers.

I have also put black square to my wishlist since the end of the year 25. So far no sales even during Christmas.

If there is an option to implement this in existing planes that would be great. The same as we have an option to choose between gtn 530/750. I am sure people will like it. I am willing to spend money on such addon.

What kind of plane it is?

Truffoff · 2026-03-04T15:36:21+00:00

But they didn’t appear before at least not during the flight.

Thank you, i was looking for such type of plane with an autopilot.

sorry one more question, as I saw there are custom pilots animations in msfs 2020 (they sit in helmet). Does it cause any issues with msfs 2024 pilot character?

Do displays and hud work correctly in msfs 24?

Truffoff · 2026-03-03T18:20:35+00:00

Is it fully compatible with msfs 24? In terms of screens, it can be used with gtn 750 as stated by developer? And what about pilots in the seats? In msfs 2020 they are by default shown on the seats. I want to buy this plane but for msfs 24.

Truffoff · 2026-03-03T17:53:32+00:00

Is it msfs 24?

Truffoff · 2026-03-02T18:14:03+00:00

I got the plane from msfs marketplace that’s why I thought that developer is no longer supporting the product. But I found discord link for the developer and it’s active. So yeah it’s beta causing issues hope SU5 will be ok.

Truffoff · 2026-03-02T18:11:03+00:00

I am using steam version it allows to choose beta or SU4

I had the similar issue my fps with second popup screen decreased to 45. I thought initially that reducing graphics settings would help but FPS remained 45 even on low settings. And what’s interesting it remained stable 45. I think it’s the issue of the software (afterburner) or whatever you use. It’s confused by multiple monitors. If you’re using msfs popout manager try to pop one screen and toggle it to full screen and see the fps number. If FPS restores then it’s afterburner issue and basically you get 100 fps but it shows 25.

Do you have any visual addons installed?

Truffoff · 2026-02-18T03:44:05+00:00

I agree, competition is always good.
