Hard to believe I went to Win 11 kicking and screaming

Featured Replies

Hi Everybody,

I started working on MS2020 now that X-Plane 12 is all set up for Windows 11 Pro. I visit the following areas, New Jersey, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and Miami. I must say that the performance with all the data that is being pushed out (including photogrammetry) is simply amazing. Sliders are now full right!

By updating my operating system from Windows 10 pro to Windows 11 pro and by adding DLSS4 into the mix, it has made a tremendous improvement in the overall flight sim experience.

Some flickers were introduced at the end of the LA section, not sure if it came from my software or youtube.

If you're hesitant about updating from Windows 10 to 11, you may want to reconsider that decision!

  • Win 11 is one of the best ms os's I've used since the early nineties...

  • The fact you "also" went to DLSS probably has more to do with being able to crank the settings than the OS.  

  • I just upgraded from Windows 11 to 10 and couldn't be happier :)

What aircraft is that?, the interior looks like it was designed by the same guy who specs out Portaloos😁

The interior you are looking at is of the 737NG made by the same company that makes hardware for real world companies like Soutwest Airlines, Air Canada, NASA and GE Aviation to name a few.

This is my flight deck, complete view.

Ah, you can't beat good old MS-DOS. Even Windows 11 surely pales in comparison to that jewel of software architecture :wink:

DOS 2.1 on floppy was my favorite! When my friends tell me they know computers, I give them the C prompt and tell them to get me to a particular sub directory and they are lost. I then ask them to type out any internal command they can remember and I get a blank stare. hahahaha

I was still getting way more stutters with Windows 10 over 11 with DLSS4, but the improvements may have something to do with the new network setup in 11.

Thank you! So you simply updated to 11 when Windows offered, just like that?

This because I tried twice. Apart from the annoying UI, what sent me back was the stutterfest it caused in other sims I have. But a clean install would mean a couple of weeks reinstalling everything (but MSFS)

Hi,

Yep, just took the update to Windows 11 pro. Then I did this: https://www.pcworld.com/article/541452/make-windows-11-look-like-windows-10.html

I went from 10 to 11 a year or so ago, my CPU temps went nuts (averaging 92 before even starting any program much less flight sim) and despite asking everywhere (probably except here lol) I couldn't get a definitive fix to bring temps back down, except to downgrade back to Windows 10 which is what I've run ever since. 

If anyone knows how I can get my temps down and keep them down within reason I would gladly move on up back to Windows 11.

Have you tried undervolting the cpu? Those i9s run hot.
