Best Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 settings for the Intel UHD 770 (desktop 12th/13th Gen) (2026)

On a Intel UHD 770 (desktop 12th/13th Gen) (paired with a balanced Intel Core i5-8600K-class CPU), Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 runs at roughly 13 FPS at 1080p with our optimized settings — up from about 5FPS with everything maxed. Here's the configuration and what each setting costs.

The Intel UHD 770 (desktop 12th/13th Gen) is a entry-level graphics card with 2GB of VRAM, and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is a one of the most punishing games to run on PC. Paired with the Intel Core i5-8600K, it is a real challenge at 1080p — about 13 FPS with FrameCoach's optimized settings, a clear jump from roughly 5 FPS with everything on High.

Across resolutions you can expect around 13 FPS at 1080p and 8 FPS at 1440p, dropping to roughly 4 FPS at 4K. With only 2GB of VRAM, keep textures a notch below max in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 at higher resolutions to avoid stutter. The biggest free win is XeSS upscaling — set it to Quality for a large FPS boost at little visual cost.

Resolution	All-High FPS	Optimized FPS
1080p	5	13
1440p	3	8
4K	2	4

💡 Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024: Extremely CPU- and streaming-bound; the GPU is rarely the real limit.

🚀 Biggest free win: enable XeSS (Balanced) — about +55% FPS for a small sharpness trade.

Recommended settings

Upscaling — XeSSBalanced+55% FPS

Flight Simulator 2024 supports DLSS and FSR with Frame Generation. It helps, but remember the sim is usually CPU- and streaming-bound, not GPU-bound.

Terrain Level of DetailLow+10% FPS

How much world detail streams in - the single biggest setting, and heavily CPU- and bandwidth-bound. High is a strong balance.

Objects Level of DetailLow+8% FPS

Building and object density - another CPU-heavy lever. Medium/High frees real frames over cities.

Cloud QualityLow+8% FPS

Volumetric cloud detail. Ultra is gorgeous but costly - High is a clean trade.

Shadow QualityLow+6% FPS

Terrain and aircraft shadows. High is the value pick.

ReflectionsLow+5% FPS

Water and cockpit-glass reflections. Medium/High is plenty.

Ambient OcclusionOff+4% FPS

Soft contact shadows. Medium is a cheap, good-looking option.

Anti-AliasingOff+4% FPS

Edge smoothing. TAA is clean and cheap; DLAA is sharper but costs more.

Texture ResolutionUltra-1% FPS

Surface sharpness - cheap if it fits your VRAM.
