Even though I was not able to find the cause by 100%, I found my own conclusion. SSAA was on on my 7680x1440 setup. But I strongly doubt it was really actively working. I found older threads where it was not possible to put SSAA to 1.5x or 2.0x at high resolutions. Maybe this is a relict from that times and SSAA became active when using the reduced resolution of 5120x1440 with the new monitor. I did a lot of adjustments in the options and this was the only point where I really found a key to raise the FPS to the expected level. Now I can even raise MSAA to 4x and Clouds to high and still have more FPS.
For me this topic is closed, as I´m fine like it is now. By the way, the Odyssey G9 is a great monitor and I don´t regret anything, even though I lost 1/3 of the physical field of view.
Hi Schumi,
at least you were able to get some better FPS, hope this will have an effect on your decision in making a break from DCS 😉 We need every pilot we can get 🛫
For me the difference between 45 FPS I got with the GTX 1080Ti and the >60 FPS I actually have is really noticeable. It feels much more fluent and I was even able to raise some settings (shadows).
So I hope I was able to bring a little bit joy back in terms of DCS.
