Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020
The Microsoft Flight Simulator Game of the Year (GOTY) Edition celebrates all the positive feedback, reviews and awards garnered, but it is also a “Thank You” to our fans – new and old – that have made Microsoft Flight Simulator such a phenomenon. Best of all, the Microsoft Flight Simulator Game of the Year Edition will be available as a free update for existing players on PC.
Available now on Steam.
Microsoft Flight Sim sees some pretty appalling performance at 1080p, but that really is across the board due to the game just being so CPU intensive, but I wanted to include the results for complete transparency to show how GPUs scale at this lower resolution.
This is shown at 1440p where performance really shifts around on a lot of cards, while the 7800 XT still comes in at 55 frames per second, which is again, 10% faster than the 6800 XT, and only just behind the more expensive RTX 4070, so again, chalking up a win for AMD when thinking about value for money.
At 4K, while performance takes a bit of a hit, all cards do and the 7800 XT stays towards the middle of our chart at 33FPS. That still puts it ahead of the RTX 4070 by 6% and 22% ahead of the 6800 XT, which is a pretty nice increase when comparing generation to generation.
