Jogui3000 Posted June 10, 2018 Posted June 10, 2018 (edited) Hello everyone. I'm posting this to ask about the best graphics configuration for performance. Generaly speaking, I don't have many performance issues, but I would like to get closer to a stable 60FPS all the time. :helpsmilie: Which options impact performance the most? And which kind of Eyecandy I can leave on so that the game still looks good, but runs better. Currently, I have: GTX 1060 (6GB) + I54670K 3.4Ghz + 16GB of RAM. My graphics settings are as follows: https://prnt.sc/jt9qih The two main issues I would like to solve are: 1)Using too much RAM in multiplayer. (around 23GBs in the 104th server) 2) A few performance drops here and there. Thanks in advance. Edited June 10, 2018 by Jogui3000 PC Specs: RTX 2070 (8GB) + I5-9600K + 32GB RAM.

Art-J Posted June 10, 2018 Posted June 10, 2018 Both in-game antialiasing options are the biggest fps killers nowadays. Do you really need MSAA x4? i7 9700K @ stock speed, single GTX1070, 32 gigs of RAM, TH Warthog, MFG Crosswind, Win10.
Jogui3000 Posted June 10, 2018 Author Posted June 10, 2018 Both in-game antialiasing options are the biggest fps killers nowadays. Do you really need MSAA x4? Not sure, will try it out with 2x MSAA.

SilentSierra Posted June 11, 2018 Posted June 11, 2018 (edited) I upgraded my rig to run @1080P 60FPS with high settings, but sadly I need to disable terrain object shadows to reach that performance all the time. My new VGA was recommended by ED to run with high settings, but if I fly over Dubai or Las Vegas with terrain object shadows, the FPS drops below 60FPS. If you want to increase FPS I recommend to disable SSAA, motion blur, clutter/grass and terrain object shadows. You can also turn off MSAA in DCS and use MSAA and FXAA filters with Reshade, but is not the same thing. https://reshade.me/ Edited June 11, 2018 by SilentSierra CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D MOBO: Asus ROG STRIX B650E-E MEM: Kingston FURY Renegade 64GB DDR5 5200MHz SSD: Kingstone Fury Renegade NVME PCIe 4.0 M.2 SSD 4TB GPU: ASUS ROG STRIX RTX 4090 OC CASE: Cooler Master TD500 Mesh WATER COOLER: Cooler Master Master Liquid ML360 Illusion HT: TrackIR 5 VR: HP Reverb G2 V2 HOTAS: TM HOTAS Warthog RUDDER: TPR Rudder Pedals GRIP: TM F/A-18C GRIP WHEELS: Logitech G27 OS: Win 11 Pro SIMS: DCS World, Falcon BMS, IL-2 Sturmovik, MSFS2020, Arma 3, Assetto Corsa.

Not using SSAA, and I won't disable MSAA in DCS, it looks bad without it. PC Specs: RTX 2070 (8GB) + I5-9600K + 32GB RAM.
