I player with the SteamVR resolution settings. It defaulted to 150% resolution. I dropped it to 110% some super sampling still for lense distortion) and that made a huge difference. I was able to maintain mostly 80fps last night on Flyboy's Syria TeamOps practice.

I played around some more after some mixed results Wednesday night's practice. I found that four settings I thought had little impact infact did have more impact that I thought. Clouds: High -> Standard Water: Medium -> Low Clutter/Grass: 500 -> 0 Scenery Details Factor: 1 -> 0.75 I still have Medium Textures, Low Terrain Textures, and Medium Visib Range. Those three changes alone got me from 20fps on the ground in a dark airplane (powered off) in Flyboy's training server to 37fps (85% increase!). I can't say which ones did the most changes without thoroughly testing each setting change. Frame times are still wildly all over the place, and that's my next investigation. I'll do some more tinkering and report some better results here incase someone else needs them.

Thanks Vonrd. The SteamVR vs OpenXR might be a thing. I think I can get a different OpenXR runtime in use with the standalone version so I'll give thst a try. One thing of note, I notice the framerate drops only once the VRAM is full. With 16GB I thought if have some decent room to grow but apparently not. When the VRAM is not full, for example on a small single player mission, I get 90FPS with little problem so I think it mostly comes down to VRAM usage I need to get under control.

Hi all, I got into VR only a few weeks ago. I've upgraded my GPU to an RX 9070 XT 16GB and then even upgrades the rest of the PC to a Ryzen 9800X3D and 64GB DDR5-6000 (4 DIMMs downclocked to 5600MT/sec). I still am having issues with frame timing with anything more than a small single player mission. On Flyboy's training or Syria servers, I average 20FPS in VR and I have everything pretty much set to low. Can we compare eachother's performance by specifying what hardware and settings we're using? FWIW, I get pretty good framerates on a 1440p monitor and high settings.
