That's a very poor situation to be found in - a known problem, and what appears to be no interest to correct it at all with the previous generation, plus now as well. Very disappointing. I was seriously considering purchasing a 7900XTX in January. I guess my only hope now is that at least for most other gamers that don't need it, the AMD is attractive enough to force NVIDIA's prices down at some stage in the future. Either that, or DCS come out with MT/Vulkan where it's improvement is to a point where it gets rid of the nigglies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For anyone on 1080p or 1440p it might be very good. But for anyone in VR whose concern is also visuals and therefore needs motion reprojection it's really a bad card for the price if that stutter problem still persists. For that specific user I would not recommend buying AMD cards at all. I was really hoping I was wrong and they would have solved this issue with the 7000 series. In that case I would have probably sold my 4090 and bought a 7900XTX myself. But since they haven't, I don't expect it to be solved at all (VR is still just a niche market, and the need for motion reprojection even more). The AMD drivers division is not really big and I think they have other problems at the moment.

Johnny Dioxin Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 I'm using a Cooler Master MB511 case for mine - was really cheap at around £50 but it's great. Has fittings for 8 SSDs - 4 below the PSU/cable area, 2 on the back of the baseplate (what you attach the motherboard to) and two on top of the PSU enclosure. It has 3 fans on the front, two at the top and one at the back and my CPU & GPU temps dropped 10°C when I moved my PC into it. It has all the RGB lightshow gubbins but I don't use that stuff (the 4080 has an RGB socket, too). This was with my 2080Ti: This with the 4080: It's a hardened cellulose side panel. Only thing I don't like is that it doesn't have a USB-C socket, they are all USB A 3.1. As you can see I'm not massively strict on hiding all the cables - just the worst of it. 1 Kneeboard Guides Rig: Asus B650-GAMING PLUS; Ryzen 7800X3D ; 64GB DDR5 5600; RTX 4080; VPC T50 CM2 HOTAS; SN-1 Pedals; VR = Pico 4 over VD Wireless + Index; Point Control v2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Few posters have pointed out that AMD never fixed this issue for 6000-series so I guess I will return this card and see if 4080 ever drops to near 1200 euro here.

Johnny Dioxin Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 (edited) I've just done a flight in VR with my Pico 4 and the RTX 4080 - jaw-dropping smoothness. I used the same settings as with my 2080Ti, which always had either a solid 30 or 45fps, depending on headset used. Despite having my Pico 4 settings at 90Hz, DCS World ran at 72 - but OMG! Now I can finally up my settings. Not sure if the HD is processed yet - this is the onboard Pico headset recording - finally a VR headset manufacturer has included an easy onboard recording option - just a press of the screenshot button on the controller: I recorded the test flight, which was just a take-off from Addis Ababa in the A-10A followed by a low-level flight around the city until my demise when I misjudged a couple of appartment blocks! Unfortunately, the commentary wasn't recorded. Nevertheless, fpsVR is visble for the whole flight - flatlining Edited December 27, 2022 by Johnny Dioxin 1 Kneeboard Guides Rig: Asus B650-GAMING PLUS; Ryzen 7800X3D ; 64GB DDR5 5600; RTX 4080; VPC T50 CM2 HOTAS; SN-1 Pedals; VR = Pico 4 over VD Wireless + Index; Point Control v2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucShep Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 (edited) I understand the purpose of benchmarks, but I notice that most (all?) are testing with FC3 aircraft (Su-27, A-10A, etc), which have much lower detail in Cockpit 3D and far lower res textures. Same thing for the map, Caucasus is simpler and much better in performance than pretty much any other DLC map.

Johnny Dioxin Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 (edited) Yes - it's a shame the commentary didn't record in my video as I was saying pretty much the same and I was only using the A-10A because I am redoing my profiles and that is top of the list! Next one will be in the A-10C II and F-16C, which I've also completed now.

Granted, Hornet is not as heavy as Apache, but it's still a full fidelity module.

One would think that using 4K or VR, in MP and with supercarrier + F-14A/B or F/A-18C, or F-16C in Syria, or P-47 in Normandy, would be a far more sensible test for GPU and VRAM stress utilization related aspects (framerate, frametime, temps, wattage, bandwitdth, etc), for comparison purposes with these higher-end GPUs. Those not having such modules may be able to Trial them, then use them for such a "benchmark".
