ED should equip a 3080 streamer with DCS


Recommended Posts

Yes!

Has anyone actually run DCS on a 3080 yet? I'd love to know if there's a worthwhile improvement. I've been playing DCS on an Asus 980 Strix for ~5 years now. I flip between 2k for FPS and 4k for gorgeousness but I'd like to move on.

 

 

My processor/Mobo went pop just before lockdown so I'm hoping that a 30 series card will work well with my 9700k and show me enough gains to run in 4k all the time. If I get enough 4k performance, I hope to make the leap to VR with a G2 - but I'm not dropping any cash on that until I see what I can get with a 3080.

 

 

Oh, and I decided to move on from my 650W PSU, just in case it was the cause of the failure, so I went overkill with a Corsair HX1000. If that isn't enough, I'll have to sell my PC to the power company.

Do you have a 2k monitor? 1440p native looks much better than 1440 on a 4k screen. A 1440p monitor would be probably a better upgrade than a 3080.

 

A guy running DCS on a Rift S and a 3080 is reporting not stellar 60 to 80 FPS. I stay on my 1080Ti which manages 90 FPS when I drop the rendering to 70%.

Something seems off. You should be getting a much better experience. Make sure you're not SS in SteamVR *and* increasing PD in game. As a start.
