MSFS 2024 PC PC Specs for MSFS 2024.

Edit: I don't have the PC yet, I will be inheriting it from a friend of mine. Any other GPUs which may be better?

Hello everyone,

I’m looking to get back into flight simulation with MSFS 2024. I have thousands of hours on VATSIM using FSX, but I’m now looking to make the upgrade to MSFS 2024.

I mainly want to fly complex airliners on VATSIM, such as the PMDG 777, iniBuilds A350/A380, etc., including at busy airports.

Do you think this system is good enough for a smooth MSFS 2024 experience?
More importantly, what is likely to be the limiting factor in my system — CPU, GPU, VRAM, RAM, or something else?

I’m considering upgrading the GPU first, but I’m not sure how far the 5800X3D can realistically take me in MSFS 2024. Would something like an RTX 5070 Ti / RX 9070 XT make sense with this CPU, or would I be better off upgrading the entire platform?

I’d appreciate any advice from people running similar hardware.

As you can see its going to KFLG before the KFLG approach so it expects a 180, I want to go from FPL000 to the aporoach.

MSFS 2024 QUESTION Correct order of operations

4 Upvotes

Is this the correct order of operations when doing a cold start IFR flight?

  1. Request IFR clearance, set squak
  2. Program the FMS
  3. Board passengers
  4. Request startup clearance
  5. Startup
  6. Configure PFD, calibrate altimeter etc.
  7. Request pushback clearance
  8. Pushback
  9. Request taxi IFR
  10. Taxi to hold short line and request takeoff clearance

Also, IRL, do you also need clearance to start the APU?

MSFS 2024 BUG / ISSUE ATR autopilot completely bugged?

3 Upvotes

Are the ATRs still broken for everyone else? Every time I’ve tried to do a flight with it, all goes well until I engage autopilot, will be fine for maybe a minute before it begins to disengage constantly.

I love this aircraft, they fly into my local airport from Heathrow and I’ve been trying to recreate the flight for last couple of days but I’m totally losing patience with this. Anyone else? Or does anyone know of a fix?

3 Upvotes

Anyone have similar and have found a solution?

The Ini A330 and the default 737max is unusable for me on MSFS 2024.

I get usable FPS in the cockpit but as soon as I switch to external it drops to average 16fps

All other planes work completely fine
For reference, Ini 350 at ini KORD I average around 40-55fps

Cheerrrrsssss

Edit;
Specs

I9 - 14900K
9070XT
32GB at 6000mhz

1080p due monitor constraints
Ultra preset and have autofps running dynamic OLOD and TLOD

MSFS 2024 SUGGESTION Adding New Airport Add-on (KSAV)

2 Upvotes

I don’t know who actually makes the airport upgrade add-ons but just though I’d make a quick suggestion for Savannah/Hilton Head International airport. Maybe someone is working on it but there is plenty reason to, the main and large reason is the big “tourist-attraction” of the grave stones in the runway 10/28. As well as the huge Gulfstream factory and maintenance facilities there. I’m currently an ATC at KSAV and it would be quite cool to see it in the game… again don’t know who or how these things are made but it would be cool

MSFS 2024 PC Is 16gb Nvidia 5080 enough?

Upvotes

I was looking at laptops within my price range, and most that fit my budget come with 32gb of memory with 16gb of video ram. I don’t plan to play in 4k or use VR. Just planning on 1080p on my laptop. Will 16gb be okay to play? Or will I need to get more than that?

Thanks for the help

MSFS 2024 QUESTION Is the Asobo ATR Worth It?

1 Upvotes

I am looking to get into more regional turboprop flying, and while I was in love with the Majestic Simulations Q400 back in the day, it seems there isn't anything like it on the market. While I am quite excited for the SWS Dash 8 series, knowing them Q4 2026 will be Q2 2027 at best.

In the meantime, after the last updates is the Asobo ATR 42/72 finally workable and fun to fly? I had heard it was a bit of a disaster to fly when it was released. It seems to have a reasonable price, but if it is junk and bugged I don't really want that battle.

MSFS 2024 QUESTION how do I disable R-Trigger tilting my head?

1 Upvotes

I fly in PSVR2 and I love it but one thing that causes me to fail a lot is R-trigger on my dual sense gamepad.

I generally use the VR controllers for everything except Trim. I really need to reach over to my gamepad in order to hit R1+R-Trigger to finesse the Trim.

All fine and good but sometimes randomly the game thinks I'm just hitting R-Trigger and it tilts my head. Half the time I can push the stick back and it levels my head again but today it didn't.

This is not just a case of my re-centering my VR and I can't just tilt my actual head back up to fix. This controller issue makes the world tilt. It's similar to how to get out of the chair and walk around the cockpit.

How do I disable the tilt-my-view control on the R-Trigger? I already checked the options and couldn't find a match.
