Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020’s August update gives huge performance boost!

The game which has been out for over a year has been a pain to get a decent performance out off.   With random stutters and freezes and inconsistent framerates its been well a huge disappointment personally.  So much so that I had given up on ever playing it again due to state of the Graphic’s Card market (With Sky-high prices) and the only way to get it running anywhere decent would be a graphics card upgrade.

The August update/Xbox release Patch :
Ever since the august patch/Xbox Release (world update 5) there were reports that this latest patch would give a huge performance increase.  Some outlets reported a 50% increase in performance which I doubted most of these outlets have access to newer Graphics cards.

The august update give the game at least a 50% increase in performance amazing! The game which would never let me fly over high-populated areas like NewYork and London would finally and my god my first trip over New York was stunning.  Looking down below at streets and cars moving along while seeing buildings for miles was incredible.
