There have been quite a few discussions about hardware requirements when moving from FSX to P3Dv4. The main topic has revolved around GPU performance and minimums needed to take advantage of 64bit.
I shot this video at conservative, mid slider settings in V4 using my overworked, and rather tired EVGA GeForce GTX 780 3gig card. LM requires minimum 2gig, with 8gig recommended for best performance. I think the video speaks for itself.
For those members considering the move, and looking at their equipment, this might give you a visual frame of reference to gauge your decision.
The two sceneries are major heavy hitters, and built for 64bit DX11. Moving from one massive scenery to another would be a challenge in 32bit. No OOM's...ever in V4 and VAS stays well within the green.
Layer on the NVIDIA tweaks, weather, complex cameras, URP and other peripherals, I'm asking a ton from this aging card and getting very good performance across the board.
