July 31, 20205 yr You have to read between the lines. If ideal says 32GB Ram, it's not for fantasy. https://fsprocedures.com Your home for all flight simulator related checklist.

Besides reducing any possibility of running out of memory, some have mentioned performance benefits from increasing from 16 to 32 RAM. This may or may not be an illusion. I have 16, and would recommend 32, but it's not strictly necessary. Hook Larry Hookins Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of EarthAnd danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;

Hook My experience has been is that that if a developer says 8gb, you should immediately start planning for 16gb, and if they say 16......... I will say that my ram usage with the sim regularly exceeds 16. Edited July 31, 20205 yr by HiFlyer We are all connected..... To each other, biologically...... To the Earth, chemically......

July 31, 20205 yr I have 16gb right now, and I am buying another 16gb today. The RAM is used to store the photogrammetry and AI rendered buildings. When the graphics detail bar is increased, it populates more of the scenery with buildings and trees instead of flat satellite imagery. The 32gb RAM will be beneficial in large cities. If you plan on runnings graphics settings on high or ultra i would get 32gb, RAM is cheap right now. I have maxed out on 16gb just using Google Earth VR and that is less graphically intensive than this sim, all those buildings eat up RAM. Edited July 31, 20205 yr by Heli
July 31, 20205 yr To be doubly sure, I doubled the ideal spec and put 64gb into my new build. I9-13900kf - rtx4090 32gb ddr5 4800mhz, 2TB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD internet - 300+ mbs / Honycomb Alpha yoke / Saitek Throttle Dell 43” 4K

It obviously didn’t scale to double..in most cases it scaled up a minimum of 40%.

Sounds good..they probably faked all the videos I saw with the before and after where sli improved FPS from 40 % on up.. they faked the moon landings you know, so it would be easy to fake the results of an sli test.
