The AMD RX 6700 XT is a strong 1440p card with 12GB of VRAM, and X-Plane 12 is a demanding, graphically heavy game. Paired with a balanced AMD Ryzen 9 5950X-class CPU it averages about 80 FPS at 1440p with FrameCoach's tuned settings — up from roughly 60 FPS with everything on High.
| Resolution | All-High FPS | Optimized FPS |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 100 | 98 |
| 1440p | 60 | 80 |
| 4K | 34 | 60 |
At 1080p expect around 98 FPS, at 1440p about 80 FPS, and at 4K roughly 60 FPS with optimized settings. The single biggest improvement is FSR upscaling — set it to Quality.
