The game is completely unplayable on my pc?

[Regular Unkickable Name]

I just bought the game, and can't do anything in the game without it freezing on and off every 3 seconds I try to move my mouse. I restarted my pc, closed everything on my pc besides steam and the game (no heavy background processes either)

These are the game settings I'm using (literally looks like minecraft):

DISPLAY MODE = FULL SCREEN
FULL SCREEN RESOLUTION = 640x480
V-SYNC = OFF
RENDER SCALING = 30
ANTI-ALIASING = TAA
TERRAIN LEVEL OF DETAIL = 10
TERRAIN VECTOR DATA = OFF
BUILDINGS = LOW
TREES = LOW
GRASS AND BUSHES = OFF
OBJECTS LEVEL OF DETAIL = 10
VOLUMETRIC CLOUDS = LOW
TEXTURE RESOLUTION = LOW
ANISOTROPIC FILTERING = OFF
TEXTURE SUPERSAMPLING = OFF
TEXTURE SYNTHESIS = LOW
WATER WAVES = LOW
SHADOW MAPS = 768
TERRAIN SHADOWS = OFF
CONTACT SHADOWS = OFF
WINDSHIELD EFFECTS = LOW
AMBIENT OCCLUSION = OFF
REFLECTIONS = OFF
LIGHT SHAFTS = OFF
BLOOM = OFF
DEPTH OF FIELD = LOW
LENS CORRECTION = OFF
LENS FLARE = OFF
USE GENERIC PLANE MODELS (AI TRAFFIC) = ON
USE GENERIC PLANE MODELS (MULTIPLAYER) = OFF

These are my PC specs:
Processor = Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-8350K CPU @ 4.00GHz 4.01GHz
Installed RAM = 16GG
System Type = 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

The moment I open up the game, it starts to freeze just trying to click through the main menu. It takes up 77% of my CPU, 5.8GB of my memory and 83.5% of my GPU

I just bought this game, steam says I've played the game for 8 hours which was just me downloading the 91GB of content, I haven't played a second of the game. So if I can't resolve this issue, I'd hope I can get a refund.

Its the graphics that are the issue if you dont have a discreet GPU your integrated Intel® UHD Graphics 630 won't cut it for this game, the CPU should be alright so long as you buy something thats equal to this or better - Radeon RX 570 or GeForce GTX 770.

Edit - I'm assuming you only have integrated as you didn't mention what GPU you have however if you do have a discreet make sure you set in whatever GPU's control panel to use your high performance graphics and not your integrated as that CPU does have integrated graphics so it sounds like MS Flightsim is using your Integrated

You need to FULLY list your PC hardware.

Only other info I found was the computer name which is "DESKTOP-V4CSN1Q". What I don't understand is how can my pc run ray tracing with the highest graphics and large textures in minecraft at 1080p, but not flight simulator at literally 640p, lowest settings. Like the flight simulator graphics looked like a game on windows 95. How could it possibly need a better GPU to render such trash. It's not adding up at all. The freezing also didn't show any differences between 1080p medium graphics and 640p lowest graphics. No difference, it kept dropping frames at the same rate.

turn on vsync, set it to ~30 fps for a start. As you say you have RT, set your resolution to 1080p. view task manager -> performance and don't max out your cpu or gpu. Increase default settings watching usage. Adjust the default settings for video, if you hit high usage, reduce it, use taa if you can. You want to find a starting point that gives you overhead, you never really want 100% usage. You may be able to change resolution when doing this too.

Important settings to make it look good, set as high as can while watching usage, including gpu ram usage:

TERRAIN VECTOR DATA = High as you can go
BUILDINGS = High as you can go
TREES = High as you can go
GRASS AND BUSHES = High as you can go
VOLUMETRIC CLOUDS = High as you can go

The big killer is the Render Scaling slider.

You need to find the sweet spot for your system. Start low and improve it.

Suspect this guy may nor be on the level.

6 years on Steam and the available info on the profile plus previous names smells.

It's been about 20 years since I ran any game in 640x480 resolution... No doubt it looks like Minecraft

Thought this was legit til I saw the mine craft, fs2020 comparison, false alarm boys nothing relevant here, just another poor bait post

Since you dont even know your graphics card its possible your drivers are also probably pretty out of date, best thing you can do is right click the windows icon on the bottom left of your desktop, hit device manager and select display adapters, whatever name pops up there is your graphics card but since you've said you have Ray tracing support you must have an Nvidia RTX card and given your CPU I suspect it was paired with a 2060 so I would suggest you also download Geforce Experience to check for any driver updates, you should be able to run this game at least using some lower settings at 1080p the graphics look amazing this is for sure an issue on your end that we can fix

Like I said before I think the main issue is that FS 2020 is trying to use your integrated graphics and not your actual graphics card, assuming you actually have RT cores on your GPU and its not just you getting it confused with Path tracing you should be able to just switch it in the nvidia control panel to use "High performance graphics" instead of integrated but also make sure you download the driver updates like I mentioned before since Nvidia did just recently release driver updates for FS2020.

When you mean you played Minecraft with raytracing did you play the bedrock raytracing beta or was it the Java edition? Java edition does not support ray tracing the closest you can get is Seus PTGI shaders which are "PATH" traced global illumination not "RAY" you don't need RT cores for that but you do for the Minecraft RTX beta.

You do realize there is a high chance that Regular Unkickable Name is just trolling?

Possibly but I've got time to waste rather see where it goes

Are you guys serious? I just got back on this account it's been years. My profile is ridiculous so I can understand if you think I'm trolling but I actually just want to play this game. The only other game I play is minecraft and that obviously is not on steam. I know it might be humorous that I would compare minecraft to a game like flight simulator. But I thought my point had relevance because surely ray tracing on any game will be intensive. And surely if I can run ray tracing on any game. I should be able to run a game with the lowest settings at 640p.

Can we take this seriously, I'm not here to waste anyone's time, I simply want help as I paid good money for this game.
