MSFS 202 with GTX 1650 | Lossless Scaling | Page 1

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:31 PM

#

Everything on Low except AA on TAA and Cache on Ultra

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:32 PM

#

In MSFS Settings?

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:32 PM

#

yup

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:32 PM

#

One sec lemme try.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:32 PM

#

lock FPS at 25 in RTSS

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:32 PM

#

Also what about lossless scaling settings?

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:32 PM

#

lower resolution to 1280 x 720

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:32 PM

#

Oh god this is gonna take a while to load MSFS gimme 3 mins.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:33 PM

#

Then for LS here's you set up

#

Should be able to play at 50 fps constantly

#

If you see if you have more juice, lock at 30
You might be able to push to 60 fps

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:34 PM

#

This is gonna take a couple minutes so that I can understand all the settings

#

Im not a great tech guy.

#

Please bare with me 🙂

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:38 PM

#

iron stratus Then for LS here's you set up

This is done.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:39 PM

#

Seems correct 😄

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:39 PM

#

iron stratus Seems correct 😄

Hope it is 🙏

#

Now for the settings

#

You said everything on low.

#

TAA and Cache on ultra.

#

And 1280 x 720 Res?

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:39 PM

#

Yup

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:39 PM

#

Gimme one second.

#

To do that Ill ping you when done.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:40 PM

#

Need to lock your fps to 25 also via RTSS

i mean its easier than to tell every step every time 😅

True True

#

If I wasn't so tired I would do voice calls but eh, Sunday... goign to bed in 15min goose

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:43 PM

#

iron stratus If I wasn't so tired I would do voice calls but eh, Sunday... goign to bed in 15...

I better hurry up then...

#

Should I doownload this RTSS thing?

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:43 PM

#

Yup 😉

#

Follow the guide of Sage at https://sageinfinity.github.io/docs/Guides/rtss

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:44 PM

#

Uhhh.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:44 PM

#

@coarse shard BTW which option you take instead of NVDIA reflex in step 4 if you run an AMD GPU

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:44 PM

#

clever hull Uhhh.

DX11 not 12

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:45 PM

#

So i put TAA on, I put1280 x 720 res.

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:45 PM

#

iron stratus DX11 not 12

Ill change that.

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:45 PM

#

clever hull So i put TAA on, I put1280 x 720 res.

Whats next

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:45 PM

#

clever hull Whats next

RTSS

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:45 PM

#

How do I do the cache thing?

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:45 PM

#

then jump into a busy airport and try to scale your game

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:45 PM

#

Alr imma download RTSS.

#

Gimme a moment

#

Ill follow the guide.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:48 PM

#

clever hull Uhhh.

Render scaling at 100 also

#

And run your game in borderless or windowed mode too

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:50 PM

#

iron stratus Render scaling at 100 also

Uhhh.

#

Im kinda lost.

#

Im not sure how to open RTSS?

#

How do I run it?

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:51 PM

#

clever hull How do I run it?

Install it
then run the .exe

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:51 PM

#

Aha

#

Brb.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:51 PM

#

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:53 PM

#

iron stratus

I hit another wall.

#

How do I find the file location?

#

For Msfs.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:54 PM

#

Don't you know where you installed your game ?

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:54 PM

#

Thats a good question.

#

I think I do.

#

Brb.

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 8:55 PM

#

iron stratus Don't you know where you installed your game ?

Actually no I dont... Where do I find it?

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 8:57 PM

#

I have no idea xD
It's your storage
Right click on the game icon in your task bar, click properties and see where the exe is located

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:00 PM

#

Aha.

#

Wait.

#

I might have found it.

coarse shard Jul 13, 2025, 9:00 PM

#

iron stratus <@1116278230299721740> BTW which option you take instead of NVDIA reflex in step...

idk, it is available with rx 570 8gb for some reason... i would leave it as it is and if there's too much input lag, use amd limiters like radeon chill

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:01 PM

#

iron stratus I have no idea xD It's your storage Right click on the game icon in your task ba...

So I found it.

#

When I find the exe

#

Should I click on it.

#

and click open?

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:02 PM

#

yup just keep following the Sage's guide

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:02 PM

#

Uhhh...

coarse shard Jul 13, 2025, 9:03 PM

#

clever hull Uhhh...

run rtss as admin

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:03 PM

#

Ohhh.

#

:/

#

#

I think this means I did it correctly?

#

It says "MSFS.exe"

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:05 PM

#

yup

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:05 PM

#

I should set the framelimiter to 50 right?

#

So after I have done that

#

Do I close RTSS?

coarse shard Jul 13, 2025, 9:06 PM

#

start with 25 imo and slowly increase it later on to check how high your system can handle

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:06 PM

#

Smart.

#

Brb lemme run MSFS.

coarse shard Jul 13, 2025, 9:06 PM

#

clever hull Do I close RTSS?

minimize it

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:06 PM

#

coarse shard start with 25 imo and slowly increase it later on to check how high your system ...

Also sage srry for dming you.

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:07 PM

#

coarse shard minimize it

Minimize it as in keep it in the taskbar but not close it?

#

Keep this minimized in the taskbar?

#

Or is there a way to minimize them?

coarse shard Jul 13, 2025, 9:07 PM

#

when you click the minimize button, it should minimize to tray

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:07 PM

#

AHHH

#

Oh my.

#

Its magic.

#

🤯

#

Thats what I mean by "Im not a tech guy"

#

So now try it with 25 limiter and boost it up to see what my system can handle?

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:09 PM

#

need to be in an airport first

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:10 PM

#

So spawn in an airport.

#

Run lossless scaling.

#

And test it out?

#

Do 1 take off role and every roll I see doing good improve the limiter by 5?

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:10 PM

#

ain't need to take off

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:11 PM

#

Yeah but take off is the part where my GPU almost crashes.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:11 PM

#

if you select a busy airport you should have quite a good idea

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:11 PM

#

So its a good idea to test it.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:11 PM

#

I ain't waiting for you to take off xD

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:11 PM

#

iron stratus if you select a busy airport you should have quite a good idea

My PC Barely runs Singapore with an A350.

#

Imagine Heathrow with an A320 on vatsim :/

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:11 PM

#

iron stratus I ain't waiting for you to take off xD

Alr so imma just do no take off tests now.

#

And do take off tests later.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:11 PM

#

I managed to give the previous guy with the same GPU a good run

#

He trtied London and Hong Kong because he didn't had JFK

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:12 PM

#

Jfk is a big one.

#

Especially vatsim events JFK.

#

Oh baby...

#

Almost loaded.

#

Gimme like 10 seconds.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:13 PM

#

I mean, I don't discriminate, we all are gamers , but the 1650 is really not made for MSFS in general xD

#

So actually being able to run it is miracle

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:13 PM

#

Oh my...

#

It is perfect it feels smooth now.

#

Is there any way I can like lower down the limiter for some more visual improvements?

#

I dont really like the display of the cockpit rn.

#

Its uuhh.

#

How do I explain it.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:14 PM

#

It's already not advised to use FG at such low based framerate
you take the risk of having lots of artifacts

#

Screenshot me your MSFS settings and post it

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:16 PM

#

#

The settings and what the cockpit looks like.

#

Hmm.

#

Lossless scaling makes it worse?

#

Actually no that was me being an idiot.

#

Welp thanks for the support Lexy and Sage.

#

Also Lexy Gn to you

#

Imma go test out this new feel 🙂

#

Tysm guys.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:18 PM

#

wait a sec

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:18 PM

#

Hmm?

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:19 PM

#

Render Scaling : 100%
not 80
in MSFS

#

And " off screen terrain pre cachign " to ULTRA

#

And AMD Sharpening at 80, not 100

#

@clever hull

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:20 PM

#

Ahh.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:20 PM

#

Then check the cockpit again

#

after scaling

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:20 PM

#

Should I test out some like visual stuff see if it greatly impacts it?

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:20 PM

#

no

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:20 PM

#

Looks way better.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:20 PM

#

You won't be able to run anything more

#

The 1650 is maxed out at this point

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:21 PM

#

Now I wont need to stutter on landings or takeoffs.

#

Tysm guys.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:21 PM

#

clever hull Looks way better.

Cockpit screenshot

#

?

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:21 PM

#

Oh.

#

There ya go.

#

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:22 PM

#

looks better
Might look even better fron the pilot seat 😉

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:22 PM

#

Indeed.

#

Ignore the many warnings.

#

Fenix loves to do that when you switch panel states.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:22 PM

#

great ! 😄

This is as much juice we might get from that 1650

clever hull Jul 13, 2025, 9:23 PM

#

Indeed.

#

Thanks guys.

#

Gn lexy.

iron stratus Jul 13, 2025, 9:23 PM
