No Music.. No Talking... Just Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 using the Aviat Pitts Special S2S to fly around Wrightsville beach with both Ultra and medium settings.

Just heading East from the Wilmington Airport gets us there. not much else to see around Wilmington.. there is Wrightsville beach and further south is Carolina beach.. that's about all the area has to offer me. I-40 starts/ends just east of the airport.. taking Eastwood road (74), takes you to the coast and Wrightsville beach.. I find the Wilmington area beaches more relaxing than Myrtle area.. cheaper too.. btw, its the same Ocean.. lol

With the overcast and sun setting in the west I start out in Ultra settings with no adjustments.. then on to medium settings with no adjustments. I use 1080p 144hz monitors (now old school lol). obviously if you are pushing for the 4k it may make a difference and cost some more bucks.

About the only thing I notice that effects me, is FPS 30-40 in Ultra and 50-70 in medium.. For a flight game 30FPS is fine and I do not notice that much difference in quality to worry about it..

Now in Handcrafted areas, the 1070 takes a bigger hit, even on medium.. but still above 30fps.. Night time is also an issue for FPS.. Time will tell if I need to spend another $500-$1000 for gaming... till then..I am enjoying the game!
