As the price of graphics cards goes down a bit lately, I decided to replace my 3-year-old GTX1080 Ti card with an RTX3080 Ti card last week. I was planning to get the ASUS ROG version but it was out of stock and no schedule for next shipment at that moment. So I got the TUF edition instead.
Frankly, with 12GB GDDR6X memory and a 1,755MHz over-clock rate, it is still a very powerful card to be used in MSFS for the next few years…I guess.
In general, I got an extra 75% to more than double the framerates with the new card straight from the box. Not to mention I pushed many settings to Ultra in the Sim.
Here’s the update of my Graphics Settings in SU6 with the new card. And I listed the framerates I roughly got from various activities and locations at the bottom of the table.
Surely they are very likely to be changed in future with other system tunings but so far I am quite happy with the results the new card brings.
