Can you try to fly a "steel bird" campaign mission and notice the lowest fps you have  during the whole mission ?  If you manage to stay upper than 60 fps with "high" settings, I'll buy one ! But that means you'll win more than 40% between a 8700k and a 12700k...was your 8700k overclocked ?

 

Yeah, my 8700k was OC to 5.0 Ghz.  I will try the steel birds campaign and see how the FPS goes. Can also post my config / steamvr settings as well.

Got my first VR flight in with the 12700k last night. Without changing settings from my 8700k / 3070 rig, the new 12700k / 3080 Ti rig runs a pretty solid 90fps in the Reverb G2. It would dip to maybe 87-88 but a great experience.  With the 8700k / 3070, the same settings would result in a 50-80fps experience that would move around based on the scene. 

 

I'm very happy with the upgrade so far. I'm still running with half the ram out of the case till the liquid cooler for lga1700 shows up. The Vengeance Pro ram is too tall to fit under the Noctua cooler. Should have that sorted out by next week, but I don't think the jump from 32gb to 64gb of ram will make a difference for IL2. Maybe for DCS.

 

Would you be so kind as to run Chiliwili69's SYN_Vander test and fill in your results along with your system specs on the list? (cf. https://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/66924-syn_vander-benchmark-v6-to-measure-il-2-performance-in-monitor-vr/ ), ideally the VR results as well as the non VR results

 

This helps us make better informed upgrade choices, your help would be greatly appreciated!
