MSFS 2024 SU4 Beta v1.6.11 Performance Review – FPS, VRAM & Frametime Results

IslandSimPilot 2025-10-07 | In this video, I put Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Sim Update 4 Beta (v1.6.11) through a full performance review — testing FPS, VRAM usage, frametime stability, and overall smoothness across a complete flight segment.

You’ll see how this latest beta build handles with detailed performance metrics recorded in real time, including main thread timing, GPU utilization, and VRAM behavior during approach and landing — where stutters usually show up.

Whether you’re fine-tuning your sim for smoother landings or comparing builds before the public release, this video breaks down what’s really improved and what still needs work in SU4 Beta 1.6.11.

Sim Update 3 Beta (1.5.25) + NVIDIA 580.97 | Full Performance Review

IslandSimPilot 2025-08-16 | Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 just released Sim Update 3 Beta (1.5.25), and I’ve paired it with the brand-new NVIDIA 580.97 driver to see how performance stacks up. In this video, I run a full performance review — testing FPS, frame times, VRAM usage, and smoothness during takeoff, cruise, and landing.

If you’ve been wondering whether SU3 Beta 1.5.25 improves performance or if the new 580.97 driver actually helps with stutters, this test will give you the answers. I’ll compare results in photogrammetry cities, heavy airport scenery, and during approach where smoothness matters most.

As a real pilot and flight simmer, I’ll also share practical insights on how these updates affect landing consistency, frametime stability, and VRAM headroom so you can decide if it’s worth updating now.

Texture Resolution vs VRAM: The MSFS 2024 Setting You Shouldn’t Ignore

IslandSimPilot 2025-07-17 | Are you experiencing stutters, lag, or crashes in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024? Your Texture Resolution setting could be the problem. In this video, we explain how Texture Resolution affects VRAM usage in MSFS 2024 and how to optimize it for the best performance on any graphics card.

Whether you're using an 8GB GPU like the RTX 3060 or a high-end card like the 4080, knowing how texture settings impact video memory is critical—especially with SU2’s increased VRAM demands.

🛠️ What you’ll learn:
What Texture Resolution does in MSFS 2024
How much VRAM Ultra textures actually consume
Why this setting causes stutters or CTDs on lower VRAM GPUs
The best Texture Resolution setting for performance vs visuals

📈 Perfect for users flying at 1440p or 4K, using DLSS, Frame Generation, or flying study-level aircraft like the Fenix A320 or PMDG 737.
