MSFS 2024 Graphics Settings - Optimising For FPS and Visuals

Today we’re optimising to find the best graphics settings in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 for a high end PC. Testing took place on a 5800X3D, 4080 Super with 32GB DDR4 3600 CL16 Memory.

We’ll be testing at 4K with TAA, starting at the ultra preset, and tweaking from there, trying to claw back some FPS without making the sim look noticeably worse.

Once optimised, we also show how our results so in 1080p and 1440p, as well as toggling on nvidia frame generation. DLSS and FSR upscaling are also discussed.
