MS Flight Simulator (2020): the 2021 PC graphics performance benchmark review




Welcome aboard Guru3D airlines, after an amazing start of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, we decided to look at the sim again in 2021 in our PC graphics performance and PC gamer way with 37 graphics cards. Surely a lot of bugs have been fixed, but has performance improved and with new hardware available, let's re-investigate.

Hilbert, you're not thinking of changing careers I hope................Lovely looking game, I guess flying a smaller & more nimble aircraft would be a bit more fun? But your vid certainly proves that landing is a great deal trickier than taking off, I was worried you would run out of fuel

Hm...
still don't know it is right moment for me to jump from 8086k@5.1Ghz (6c/12t) to 9900k/kf.
There may be some gains, but I am afraid I will loose in silicon lottery, and IMC will be weaker, and/or OC too. Especially when I am on air cooler only...

As mentioned several times in the review, there's virtually no difference between now and then. Airports seem a notch faster though. This article is basically testing the move to Ryzen 9 5950X as a benchmark. You can check the CPU differences as listed in the chart. Look at it as our 2021 update with close to 40 graphics cards + additional frametime results etc.
Hi, without the original results, I cant compare the difference and thus the article looses a lot of its potential value.

It would be worth retesting when the game gets dx12 support. Im sorry but this was a waste of time.

Id like to see what progress has been actually made.
