7900X3D + 4070Ti + 5 Monitors +MSFS2020 + Process Lasso/Prefer Cache Cores Bios Setting Performance

Hey MSFS2020 Community! Just sharing some additional benchmark test data of my 5 monitor simulator running with my new 7900X3D and 4070Ti setup. Compared to my last video, this time I have a whole bunch of background tasks running as you can see in the Process Lasso window on the right monitor.
I'm running process lasso to keep all non-MSFS tasks running on the non cache cores. I have the CPU core priority set to "Prefer Cache" in the Bios. I'm trying runs with both MSFS set to only cache cores, as well set to all cores, to see if there's a difference. I'm doing that for both DX11 and DX12. I'll report back at some point with my findings.
Until then, I'm not spending much time on videos. Just hitting record on some of the test data.
If you're curious about the performance improvement a 7900X 3D will give you over a 5900X, look at the videos I posted on January 31, 2023. Where I was getting 20 to 25 FPS in modified High/Ultra settings (Ultra with LODs at 100) on that hardware, I'm now getting 40 FPS or better on true Ultra settings. That's between a 50-100% performance improvement. I was originally hesitant to upgrade my system, knowing that Ryzen 9000 CPUs are only a handful of months away... but at $370 for the 7900X3D I figured it was worth pulling the trigger and using that to hold me over until the new chips hit the market and the scalper prices settle. Not to mention now the Zen5 rig is all built and configured, and all I would have to do is drop in the new CPU.
Hope this helps!
My Sim Rig:
docs.google.co...
Background Tasks Running:
Windows 11
Process Lasso - Keep all non-MSFS tasks on CCU1
Ryzen Master - Monitor CPU core utilization
MSI Afterburner - Hardware monitoring and GPU overclocking
Air Manager - Instrument Panel Software
Touchscreen Panels - USB touch processing
Pop Out Panel Manager - Automatically pops out MSFS glass panels onto touch panels
Mobiflight - Connector for more realistic glass panel behaviors and cockpit instruments
Xconn / SimConnect - Broadcasts MSFS GPS location to cell phone for use of cell phone Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) application "Avare" (unfortunately limited to USA use only)
Open Track / Beam Eye Tracker - Face Tracking toggles on/off with joystick button press
scrcpy - Screen casting (not used in this video), allows me to screencast my Avare navigation maps, charts, and EFB tools back to the PC to record/stream over OBS
OBS - Video recording / streaming
2 Webcams - Facetracking and Front facing camera
Zoom - allows me to virtual green screen my front facing camera
USB Peripherals - Center stick, Throttle, Pedals, Knobster
COMING SOON -
4 Webcams - Facetracking, Front facing camera, Cockpit controls camera, triple monitor view camera (this is the typical setup I used to use (see my helicopter videos). I don't have all of that set up yet, but it's coming soon)
Neofly - Career mode (a good way to come up with new destinations and routes you might not normally consider flying. good practice for planning to fly to new, unfamiliar places)
BeyondATC - COMING SOON (realistic ATC and traffic injection with AI-generated realistic voices)
Note the utilization of CCU1! This is while MSFS and some windows system critical tasks are the only things running on CCU0! The 7900X3D with some Bios tweaking and Process Lasso is working exactly as expected!

This is absolutely awesome man!

Are you running any screens via the motherboard / CPU integrated graphics and not just the video card? (and if so how many) As I understand it, that's part of the reason people buy the X3D chips. I assume you might be running the two garmin displays that way.

@@oldowl4290 I have 4 monitors running on the GPU to offload the CPU as much as possible, since the SIM is typically CPU limited. Since the maximum simultaneous outputs the GPU can support is 4, I have on of the touch displays running off of the motherboard via the CPU onboard graphics.
