Is it not OK to apply Hong Kong custom scenery ?

I applied VHHH and VHXX custom scenery, but when I land to vhxx in night, frequently frame drop makes me upset. It's too choppy to land.

My system is win10, i5 8265U mx 250 16gb ram, 500gb ssd. Is it lack to install custom scenery?
I think it's enough (not lacked), because task manager display that more available resource have.

Occuring many lag, GPUs only 2%, 6% accounted respectively.
Also cpu is occupying only less than half in 2nd picture!

Well, probably rather less than half of your CPUs are occupied, but FG isn't designed to distribute the workload well across many CPUs, so likely the speed of the occupied CPU is the bottleneck.

Heavy scenery can do that for you...

So there's no straight solution for this problem?

You could try dialling back the visual details and shader settings... By the way - what is your GPU?

If you've verified that the problem is caused by the custom scenery and is not present in the normal scenery, then there's likely no solution. If the scenery needs more resources than the computer provides, there's no magic bullet.

Thats a mobile GPU. Userbenchmark says my modest (by gaming standards) GTX 1060 is about 300% more performant than your GPU and I can't run every custom scenery at full detail and OSM buildings without stutter. So... sorry, dial it back on the detail.

I see.

But I want to know my gpu just occupy only less than 10 percent.

So, upgrading my system can solve to this problem?

In fact I'm planning to upgrade my computer such as ryzen 5 and amd rx 6800

RX6800 is not solution. FG needs CPU with high singlecore performance, because ancient core can't fully utilize modern multicore CPUs. Look for as fast CPU as available, 4 cores is enough. For example, 4 core i3-10300 is bit faster in FG than my 8 core Ryzen 3700X. Intel CPUs has significant faster memory controller than AMD...

And try to avoid AMD GPU, this forum is full of the complains and problems with that graphic boards.
