757 Fanatic Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I am running X-Plane on a 4K monitor at 30-40FPS in New York suburbs/airport + weather + plugins + HS scenery. On my 1080P monitor, the MSAA was set to 8x (maximum) and gave the same FPS but at 4 times less resolution! On my 4K monitor, I have MSAA set to 4X (second highest setting) and get 30-40 FPS in New York and over 100 FPS flying at altitude with a high cloud draw distance. There is no loss of picture quality between these two settings, and 4K monitor gives better performance and overall picture quality. Never again will I be gaming on 1080P monitors. My CPU is 4.6GHZ OC i7 4790 and GTX 970. Has anyone else here noticed this too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RatRace Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I don't have a 4K monitor, because I'm wary of the (low) refresh rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSkorna Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Lower settings usually lead to better FPS no matter what the monitor. http://www.air-source.us/images/sigs/000219_195_jimskorna.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The refresh rate of my samsung 528D590D is 60HZ with a display port cable! The same as my 1080P monitor! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
