Graphic Settings - MSI Nvidia RTX 2070 Gaming Z 8GB

[derbynew]

Hi,

 

I did several tests and finally found the best graphics settings.

 

Core I5-9600k at 4.8Ghz

Memory Corsair Vengeance XPS 32GB

MSI Nvidia RTX 2070 Gaming Z 8GB

MSI Gaming Edge AC Z390

 

 

See attachments.

 

Essentially I have FXAA on in NVidia

 

MSAA 2x amd anisoptric 8x in DCS, texture object shadows are set to default (important!)

 

I use 144Mhz Screen, so I use Fast VSync (My monitor is freesync not gsyc), so you will need to adjust according to your specs

 

Would be awesome to get feedback on recommendations you guys have to make the graphics awesome. My main issue was shimmering on far away building where there is a lot of lines. I fly the helicopters, so flying low you notice these things.

Freesync doesn’t work with nVidia GPUs. Or, have you found some kind of hack?

What did you upgrade from the 2070 and how is the 2070 performance-wise?

[derbynew]

Correct, freesync does not work, hence I use NVidia V-Sync set to "Fast".

 

I now have my monitor set to 100Mhz and FPS in game set to 100fps which stays constant, so no tearing :)

[derbynew]

So, here is how i avoid tearing.

 

----autoexec.cfg----

 

options.graphics.maxfps = 100

affinity_mask = 0

 

 

Nvidia Settings -> VSync -> FAST

 

My FPS is always 100 now and my monitor is 100 MHZ. (Changed from 144 to 100). So zero tearing occurs.

I ran

Memtest86

3DMark

Heaven

 

Memtest showed corrupt memory, so i swapped it out and the new sticks passed.

3dmark showed a fault graphics card, so i swapped it out and got a new one.

 

Crazy but true, had two brand new fault parts.

 

ALWAYS test your hardware when you do a new build.

 

Happy to get tips on making the graphics better :)

 

As I mentioned since I do not have g-sync, i limit fps to 100, its a great compromise.

What does your FPS do when you are flying low over towns and trees? I have more or less the same rig as you but I have a stock I7 8700K. Getting 70 to 100 at medium to high level but down low I’m 60 to 49 ish FPS. I run SSAA at 1.5 and msaa at 2 in game. I feel I need both for the looks

running an old i5-4670k @ 4.7 msi armor o/c 2070. no msaa..ssaa 1.5 fxaa enabled frames locked at 60 and stays there even down low and action going on.

I’m getting it dropping right down to 40 on some parts of the Caucasus map. No amount of tweaking I’m doing seems to help. I’m not really wanting to turn off msaa in game because I think it looks nicer then the control panel settings. Got fxaa enabled in control panel and enchanted anti aliasing enabled, fast v sync and that’s it. 144hz monitor.
