6900 XT + 3900X Flight Simulator 2020

1440p with render upscaling at just about 4k. Custom, Ultra, and low end settings tested. Cockpit refresh rate tested at high and ultra too. Also messed with the AI traffic a little. There seems to be a major CPU limitation going by the games native analytics. The metric overlay below the games analyzer is a Radeon Metric overlay. There was virtually no performance hit from doing the recording. FPS issues are the same even when not recording. Rolling cache cleared. Performance is better (not great) with GA aircraft. Specs:
-3900X (PBO enabled)
-Sapphire 6900 XT Nitro+48GB
-DDR4 3600 Ram-Samsung 970 Evo+ nVME M2 SSD
-850W Seasonic Prime PSU

Add VR and it goes way down. 3090 is the only card right now and it struggles too.

Re_size bar support.... 🤦‍♂️

[@alfreddadorf1378]

Not so smooth...

[@divid3dbyZero]

Yeah, it was the 3900x at fault. Things got better with a 5600x. Not amazing, but very noticeably better.

@@divid3dbyZero What sort of improvement did you notice with the 5600X? I've noticed the 6900XT underperforms in FS2020 and a couple of other games, mainly CPU intensive games, but wasn't sure if it was the CPU or a driver bottlenecking the system....

[@divid3dbyZero]

@@CrashForce frames jumped noticably. Still has stutter, but I think it's the game engine holding it back. Si. Update 5 (coming 7/26 I think) is supposed to fix the CPU bottleneck. The games does not perform the way it should on a 6900XT. I recently upgraded to a 5800X, and there was only a marginal improvement over the 5600X overall.

@@divid3dbyZero Thanks for the quick response and it's finally nice to know that the CPU is what's causing the bottleneck in my system, as I spent quite a few days last week trying to troubleshoot low GPU utilization and general drops in frame rate in this game and other games as well.
