Microsoft Flight Simulator benchmark on RTX 5070 Ti: FPS by resolution and quality
Pick yours and we recalculate the whole table above with it.
Microsoft Flight Simulator FPS with a RTX 5070 Ti and a Intel Core i5-13400
| Quality | 1080p (Full HD) | 1440p (2K) | 4K (Ultra HD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ultra | 100FPS min 69Good | 85FPS min 64Good | 56FPS min 49Acceptable |
| High | 131FPS min 90Excellent | 111FPS min 84Good | 73FPS min 64Good |
| Medium | 171FPS min 118Excellent | 145FPS min 109Excellent | 96FPS min 84Good |
| Low | 221FPS min 153Excellent | 187FPS min 141Excellent | 124FPS min 108Excellent |
| Bottleneck (estimated) | CPU 31% | CPU 20% | GPU 13% |
The percentage estimates how much of the stronger component's capability goes unused because of the other one.
This one does matter: from the Intel Core i9-14900K downwards the processor becomes the brake on the RTX 5070 Ti. There is 19% between the slowest and fastest CPU in the table. One caveat: this is at 1080p, where the CPU weighs most. At 1440p and 4K the graphics card takes over and the processor stops mattering.
DLSS performance: FPS with AI upscaling
Upscaling renders Microsoft Flight Simulator at a lower internal resolution and reconstructs the image, so you trade a little sharpness for extra frames. These are the estimated figures for the RTX 5070 Ti with DLSS enabled, starting from its native Ultra FPS.
| Resolution | Native | DLSS Quality | DLSS Performance | + Frame generation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 100 | 125 | 145 | 213 |
| 1440p | 85 | 115 | 140 | 196 |
| 4K | 56 | 81 | 104 | 138 |
Frame generation inserts intermediate frames: it raises the smoothness you see on screen, but it does not reduce input latency, so use it selectively in competitive games.
About ray tracing: every figure on this page is with ray tracing off. The RTX 5070 Ti does have dedicated hardware for it, so you can turn it on in games that implement it. The FPS cost swings widely depending on how much ray tracing each title uses, and DLSS is exactly what people lean on to pay for it.
Estimated figures. The real gain varies by game and by the version of the technology.
Is the CPU or the graphics card holding you back?
These FPS assume a mid-range CPU that isn't a bottleneck — roughly a Intel Core i5-13400 — and 16 GB of RAM.
With that CPU, the RTX 5070 Ti has headroom to spare in Microsoft Flight Simulator: the processor runs out before the graphics card does. A faster processor would gain you FPS; a stronger graphics card would barely help. At 4K it flips: there the graphics card becomes the limit.
Is the RTX 5070 Ti Enough for Microsoft Flight Simulator?
The RTX 5070 Ti delivers 100 FPS at 1080p Ultra in Microsoft Flight Simulator. Enough for a smooth 60 FPS experience. For 144Hz, lower the quality to High.
At 1440p it gets 85 FPS and at 4K 56 FPS at Ultra quality.

RTX 5070 Ti or RTX 4080 Super for Microsoft Flight Simulator?
In Microsoft Flight Simulator at 1080p Ultra, the RTX 5070 Ti gets 100 FPS and the RTX 4080 Super 102 FPS. The RTX 4080 Super is 2% ahead.
