• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

High end textures

Flight Sim Junkie
So I picked up some liveries that were on sale at the marketplace and they are advertised as 8K and 4K textures. Every time I go to use them my system just bogs down and stutters set in. I have a new cpu (7800 x3d) and a rtx 4080. I mean if I can't run them, who the heck is? Am I missing something here?

Thank you, they were cheap enough so I thought I would give them a try. I'll uninstall them and consider it a lesson learned.

To whom it may concern: on flightsim.to you'll find a (metric) Ton of 8K texturen to test the performance on your system - mostly tubeliners though. Your milage may vary...
