RTX 3080ti Not enough

[sinkingputts]

We need a list of graphics cards that can actually run Full Graphics settings smoothly

[Wizard of Coz]

I had a 1070 that ran it smoothly. Now I have 3080 running 4k.
3080 not enough for what? What Software are you running?
I usually run any of my softwares with obs and discord running without a hitch.

[sinkingputts]

I should’ve been more specific FSXPLAY. 4K projector

[Wizard of Coz]

I see. I don't have fsxplay.

My 1070 was not good enough for full graphics and would not run FSX and Swing Catalyst at the same time. New PC is on the way.........

2080 Super runs full graphics albeit at 1080

[jasonreg]

This is FSX Play @ WUXGA (1920 x 1200).

I have a 3080 and it runs Play on full graphics smoothly. At least, what looks smooth to me on my projector, which isn't HD. I also do not see many of the seize/crash issues that seem to plague other users.

Your desired resolution is the key, that will drive how well your GPU can run the program. In addition, once you start pushing any card past 1920x1080, you're going to develop a lot of heat, you'd be wise to invest in some additional case fans and perhaps a dedicated fan blowing right on the GPU. I had a 3080 ti and it ran FSX Play well @1920x1080, but if you go 4K with it the temps increased greatly. Bottom line is don't buy a huge GPU and stick it in a small case with marginal ventilation.

I just want to make sure I understand, With FSX Play, in settings then graphics, it gives Low, Medium, High and Ultra. Is this equivalent to Full Performance, Balance and Full Graphics.as it was in GFSX2020? If not, where do I find it?

[delaloi]

I run Ultra graphics with the 3080 and it works fine. I don't know whether the lower projector resolution is relevant to the performance.

[sinkingputts]

Thanks Guys I'm sure its because of heat and running a 4k projector on Ultra. Nothing I can do about that right now.

I'll have to check my settings. I'm running a 3070 at 2880x2160 to a 4k projector (4:3 screen) and it's been working fine. But I don't remember what I had the graphics settings at.
