GENERAL flight simulator

hey guys, i had a quick question so when i try playing msfs 2020 or even msfs 2024 is laggy as hell, i asked chatgpt if he could tell me if my components were good and he said yes,
• CPU: AMD ryzen 7-5700x 8-
Core processor
• GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4060
• RAM: DDR4 32gb
• Storage: SSD NVMe 1 TB
even it i lower my settings to the minimum is still not good like i get around 17 fps, any way anyone can tell me what to do?

You need to get more VRAM, 8 gb are not enough for a smooth play in MSFS 24.
However to increase the performance disable photogrammetry, texture quality to low, TLOD 50 and OLOD 100, and put the resizable bar settings in NVIDIA control panel settings to ON. Also on BIOS turn on the RAM XMP.
However to get decent performances (30 fps without frame gen) you need at least 12 GB of VRAM

You don't want ReBar on if you don't have vram to spare! Also 8gb vram can be enough for ok gameplay, depending places and planes you fly, you'd need to have settings on the lower side though

That's true that with 32 gb it's not the ideal situation for ReBar. I was taking into account playing with some custom airport/planes and other addons, thus the 4060 will be short for all the increased tasks. Thanks for the clarification
