What are the recommended settings for flight simming? I play Prepar3d simulator and i get different fps depending on the scenery changes, could range from 35 fps to 70 fps. Does this type of game benefit from purexp+ ? Should i use gsync, vsync, purexp and limit framerate to let say 30fps to have a constant stable fps? Which refresh rate should i use?
For most simulators of low / variable frame rates:
-- Use G-SYNC / FreeSync. This will reduce erratic stutters for you.
-- Stutter-reduction will be your priority. Sims are less lag-sensitive.
-- Don't bother using a frame rate cap for self-capping framerates.
-- Keep refresh rate at or near maximum (224Hz or 240Hz), to keep scanout latency low
Relating to adjustments:
-- You may wish to upgrade your GPU in order to get higher frame rates with your simulator to get more high-Hz benefits.
-- The 224Hz trick will produce slightly clearer motion than 240Hz because overdrive works better at 224Hz
-- PureXP+ benefits more when you can do framerate=Hz. PureXP+ supported refresh rate rance is 75Hz to 240Hz.
If you can get your simulator minimum frame rate well into the PureXP+ range, then it might be worth trying especially during high speed situations (dog fights, acrobatics or "red bull air race" situations), you'll need to get framerate=Hz for best results via various methods (framerate cap or VSYNC ON or other method). But for volatile or low frame rates, experience is likely better via uncapped G-SYNC.
