Have owned LAX and Venice beach for almost a year now and never had any issues. Solid frames with no issues/stutters with all settings on.
Decided to purchase PHNL and it looks simply amazing. Fired it up and took it for a spin and was pretty disappointed very quickly. Stutters and almost seemed like it backed up while flying over the terminal building. I decreased the enhancements via the inimanager and it helped a minor bit but it was still very jerky even when I turned them all off.
My PC specs are I7-9700k, RTX4080, 32gb ram on a ultrawide 3440/1440 LG monitor with 120hz refresh.
Previously I had the same specs except an RTX2070 Super which was upgraded 1 month ago to the 4080. Hopefully it can be ironed out and put some patches out there to fix it because it was laggy as all hell. Never a hiccup at LAX so its kinda weird. Actually just went over it to test out and was solid 40fps at 1500ft.
