I too think that the 3840 resolution is essential, with 4SAA it looks very good but the frames are unaccepable in the low 20´s.
I tried 4xSGSAA in NI with a negative LOD Bias of -1.25, and FXAA set in XP11, and found that to be ok, the fps were between 40-50/90 then.
Hopefully it was not just a placebo, I will check back this evening.
This was with HDR on.
Anyway I think XP11 has a much higher immersion factor than P3D, I switched between the two sims a couple of times last evening, and yes P3D has more clarity, but it is a bit bland compared to XP.
Probably it all comes down to having more GPU power, I don´t know if there will be any other magic trick.
One other thing I noticed is that the readability of the gauges is just as good in XP, the shimmering is more distracting on scenery objects.
Despite all of that FI is exciting, and there is no point in going back to a monitor.

Sorry probably a silly question, but what is NI?

Nvidia inspector. It was my case that setting sgss did nothing with hdr and only helped with no hdr if set to override

I just played around with HDR and AA of in XP11 using the FI x8 AA.
It is just too much shimmering.
I would really prefer HDR of, but then I get that strange visibility bug.
Looking down everything is ok, but viewing straight out of the cockpit the haze does strang things.

3 months later, but same here. For now HDR on goes black after 20-30 minutes, and HDR off is dark (which is not a deal breaker for me) and has these moving black squares on the horizon like in your pictures (which is very distracting and at low visibility can be huge, like half my vertical FOV huge, which is a deal breaker). :( But HDR off would be better anyway as the visibility is unrealisticly low in XP 11 with HDR on.

I think this is where the discrepancy is. You are running with AI off. I find without AI on, it is unusable with all the flickering and bad graphics. This doesn't bother you?
