There's an easier way, using CPU and GPU frame time: In X-Plane settings, go to Data Output and select Frame Rate->Show in Cockpit. Now, when you're in a plane, on the top left you should see values for Frame Time, CPU Time and GPU Time. CPU Time is how long the CPU is taking to process a frame. GPU time is how long the GPU is taking to process a frame. Frame time is more or less the higher of those previous values. If CPU time is higher than GPU time then your bottleneck is on your CPU, and vice versa. This is much easier and you don't even need to leave X-Plane to check it. Austin did a great job giving us this very useful tool. Hope it helps!
In your opinion, is there a benefit of setting a FPS limit say 60 FPS on a 60hz refresh rate monitor to achieve smoother consistant FPS or would you recommend not limiting the GPU even if the CPU is not ready to render the extra frames?
@@Sim737Pilot The only benefit that I can think of right now is that it would reduce power consumption and heat output. Other than that... no. It's always better to have a lower frametime, even if your monitor is limited to 60hz, because it lowers the input latency (controllers will feel more responsive). Of course you may notice some tearing every now and then, because the frames are not synced with the display output, but it's possible to prevent this (while keeping the benefits of having a lower frametime) by setting "Vertical Sync" to "Fast" in the Nvidia control panel. I haven't experimented with the vsync option in X-Plane so I don't know how it works though.
@@Specter0420 How so? You mean the displayed FPS aren't accurate either? Because as far as I can tell the frametimes are equal to the displayed FPS; at least in my case (11.50r2 using Vulkan)
@@ChannelyMcChannelChan GPU frame time always says 0.001 I can crank the GPU settings (the ones on the left) to max and get bad FPS but the GPU frame time still says the same, even though the overall FPS is correct. The CPU frame time seems accurate and reacts to changes with the settings on the right (world objects and reflections). It is just the GPU frame times that are off which is still unfortunate. It worked well pre-vulkan and is valuable when tweaking your settings for your VR HMD or, if you're old fashioned and stuck in the past, your monitor.
I run x-Plane 11.50 in 4K 3 Screens with i9750K at 4.7G with 48 Gb Of Memory with Vulcan. In San Francisco area I'm down to 20 FPS with only 70% of GPU utilisation (RX 6650 XT 8Gb ) and 35% cpu utilisation. I have 2.5 GB of Testure loaded. Why does the GPU does not Go to 100% before reducing the Frame rate, Any idea?
For Linux users out there (and I know we're a small but lively group), you can monitor an NVIDIA gpu in a terminal using this: while true; do clear; nvidia-smi; sleep 1; done Not as fancy as Windows, but it works.
Two things... Firstly, it is also possible that the memory latency and bandwidth (timings and frequency) are also contributing to a bottleneck, this usually looks somewhat like a CPU bottleneck, but you can often get a LOT of extra juice out of a CPU by overclocking and tightening the timings on memory (though it's a more complex process). Secondly, from my experience at least, there is a HUGE variance between different locations and sceneries as to what kind of performance numbers you will get out of the system and where exactly it will bottleneck, you might find that say around NYC area you get a massive CPU bottleneck while in the rockies or generally away from very large and very dense cities you are GPU bottlenecked. Bottlenecking in general is a very complex mechanism and it is never fully explained by one single component being a bottleneck.
Both sims can share drive space. After all, this is a flight simulation community, and shouldn't be a biased this or that sim. Both have pros and cons which will change over time. Both of mine are getting along although I gave one of them a "time out" after letting it out of the box.
@@Sim737Pilot Yes they can be compared, you are mistaken... Both are simulators and xplane has more features than MS which is only more visually pleasing. I can tell you know a lot of pilots wont be moving the MS flight sim until the product is finished. And works with more hardware and display panels. VR etc.

Tks for the tip, I was able to up my frame rate from 25 to 35 by finding out the bottleneck was the GPU, not the cpu. What is Graphics_1 exactly? I had the same problem as the example you showed with Graphics_1 being maxed out at 100%.
I have a 3700X with 32gb of ram and an RX 580 (waiting for RTX 3000) and X-Plane Vulkan shows the GPU as bottleneck (obviously). I get 18-24fps at high-ish settings (1080p). With FS2020, I can completely max it out, and get 18-24 fps at 1440p. At a mix of high and ultra, I get 24-30fps in GA aircraft at 1440p. I think XP definitely has some more optimization to do here

Sir, i’m really thank you for exploring this. Your channel really help me so much. And about this video, can you tell me how to transfer the excessive power of CPU/GPU to better FPS.
Msfs2020 is gorgeous but xplane works so well as far as options for binding functions to keys (ex. Binding the nosewheel tiller). The flight model is magnificent too. For GA, I'll fly on msfs for the visuals but for airliners xplane all day

@@psour33 they are quite good in MFS lot more responsive than x plane just my opinion. everyone is entitled to their opinion so let's leave it at that.
Hi Sudipta, if you are using MSFS2020 with FSUIPC7 beta, there is a known performance issue with 20+ FPS drop. If you are using X Plane, I would recommend changing to XPilot. I was stubborn to change as well, as I was used to the interface. However, after testing, Ive found XSquawkbox controllers sound like they are in an empty room because the audio codec for realistic radio sounds needs to be installed separately and many controllers don't bother. VPilot has been great and the new audio codec is integrated so there's no need for separate install.
I have fps drops in the newest Vulkan 11.50 RC-3 update. Also my specs are a Acer Nitro 5 laptop with a i7 7700HQ 2,80GHz and a GTX1050ti, 8gb ram. I’m always at 40 to 60FPS but then it drops to 20 for 2 to 5 seconds and goes back up. How do I fix this?
Hear ya! Nice video of yours I was flying with xplane from 8, 9 and 10 version. Now the scenery of msfs 2020 is been a big distraction lol I believe that Microsoft will fix those issues, I bet you they are watching the feedback on the net! :)
Thanks Michael I love x-plane because i run a multi view system witch is not possible by MSFS2020 ! I hope they will investigate in x-plane 12 for the future.
Great insight to investigating bottlenecks Michael. Thank you! Good question from Geoff H: what exactly is graphics_1? I will see if I can find any information via Google to explain what part of the Graphics Card this refers to.
Here is a link to an MSDN blog describing these various categories: devblogs.microsoft.com/directx/gpus-in-the-task-manager/ Basically graphics_1 refers to one of the graphics engines on the card.
I wasted 2 full days learning the A320 procedures and creating checklists only to learn after launch, there's over 30 INOP switches including the SEAT BELT sign. I'll stick to Boeing enjoy the study level FREEWARE Zibo Mod in X Plane with good FPS until a 737NG is developed with fully functional systems and controls. Then maybe I will consider flying both Sims. Both have pros and cons now, and both will have pros and cons 6 months from now, though the items may change.
I'm definitely cpu bottlenecked a with 4790k 4.4ghz with a gaming Pro 3080, can't wait to get that 5900x, already have the x570 master, 32gb 3600mhz cl16. Hey Michael are you going test the 3080 in xp when you can get one
No one needs or wants AA on a 4K display. So you make your own bottleneck, which would not be there if you configure the x-plane correctly straightaway
Not true. Without AA in my 5k you got a LOT of flickering in the moving scenery. It´s not the aliasing, because is very reduced due to the high resolution, but is the flickering.
I sold my 1080 to get a 3080 for vr and on my gtx 970 I'm still getting 25fps - 40fps high graphic settings high scenery setting with a 4790k on fly tempa lav Vegas and klas scenery which is very demanding , vulkan is a godsend :) can't wait get it and a 4800x in October, got the x570 master mobo and ram ready :)
Interesting, thanks for sharing. idk for sure but X-plane itself usually states my gpu time is significantly less than my cpu time, is this also a false reading possibly?
With 11.50 still being a beta, enabling Vulcan will not be a miracle cure for very dated equipment. Sure it might help a few FPS. Personally I would wait for the official no release candidate to come out. Unless you enjoy spending time debugging occasional issues. Some enjoy that. I just don't have the patience, lol.
Since I bought MSFS2020 I have gained a completely new appreciation for X-Plane. It might take 3 days to load, but when it finally does, at least it chugs along at an OK rate.
Are you referring to long loading time for FS2020 or XP11? In either case, if your mobo supports one, M2 drives are pretty cheap considering and will greatly help with load time but not FPS.
@@Sim737Pilot XP-11 is the one with the extended loading time on my machine. One thing that FS2020 does do properly is start without me having to book an appointment with it in advance. It's on an SSD as it is, I might have a think about an M2...

Michael, I super appreciate this video, because I had NO idea that Windows 10 had that Task Manager analytical tool. As a result, I've discovered that my performance bottleneck is 16 MB of RAM at ~84-87% usage with XP11.

FS2020 has over 30 INOP controls in one aircraft (A320). Both of us are stating facts. Both statements don't matter in the short term. Everyone has different priorities. As someone who owns both sims and having flown in a real world full motion 737 simulator, I can say the flight modeling at least on the airliners has a long road ahead. MS built a World Simulator "sandbox" for others to build in. Right now there's not much, so its not worth bragging about. Visually looks great, but have seen many glitches. Key West, Niagara Falls, water glitch in Anchorage. If you enjoy FS2020, great. But I don't see a point in trying to throne MSFS2020 in its current state. It is FAR from polished. We ALL share a passion for aviation. Why does it have to be so childish "mine is better than yours"? Your comment is an indication of your maturity level. That is a fact also.
Yeah, it exists. What's your point? X-Plane still has its loyal fans and we are still using it. If X-Plane isn't your thing, so be it. We don't need your approval to have fun with it.

Key West, Niagara Falls, water glitch in Anchorage. If you enjoy FS2020, great. But I don't see a point in trying to throne MSFS2020 in its current state. It is FAR from polished. We ALL share a passion for aviation. Why does it have to be so childish "mine is better than yours"? Your comment is an indication of your maturity level. That is a fact also.
@@Mr_Spock512 lol yeah arcade...sure
Yeah, it exists. What's your point? X-Plane still has its loyal fans and we are still using it. If X-Plane isn't your thing, so be it. We don't need your approval to have fun with it.
ok what the hell is vulcan and i dont use windows for xplane never will.
and i think for how many times you said bottleneck i slowly got more annoyed and less informed
