Need to choose CPU, MOBO and Mem

[amdin]

hello,

I want to build the ideal pc for msfs2020 by these sysreq: https://flightsimulator.zendesk.com/hc/article_attachments/360014314600/MSFS-specs.jpg

 

For CPU: I can't have the 9800X so I have to choose other, I think I'll go with i9-10900 or i7-10700k

For GPU: will go with ROG-STRIX-RTX2080S-O8G-GAMING

For RAM: Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB 2x16GB DDR4 3200MHz CL16 or Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 4x8GB DDR4 3200MHz CL16 Kit

For Storage: doesn't really matter, just wanted M2 and PCIE so Transcend 110S TS512GMTE110S 512GB SSD NVMe PCIe Gen3  - was my choise

CPU Cooler: A500

not sure about MoBo, just want the option to connect 2 Nvidia GPUs

 

thanks.

IIRC that was a bad CPU cooler, something like a Mugen 5, NH-D15 or DRP4 would be good choices.

If you are going to buy Intel, please buy a unlocked CPU.

What country/budget?

You really should wait two months for new graphics cards and CPUs to launch you will get much better bang for buck

When will it happen? 

Is it the same time every year? I didn't know

I will check if my local store have these items.

I chose the A500 because of linus's video so... Hahaha

 

What do you mean by unlocked cpu and why intel is so bad?

It seems like everyone does not recommend buying intel

Il, it supposed to be a gift so there is no limit but I want to avoid spending to much, max price without a case is like a dell xps 13 inch for example.

If I remember correctly.

Intel isn't bad, its just that for most use cases AMD is better performing and cheaper.

 

Unlocked means overclockable.

What country? Pricing depends on country.

But it gets hotter, especially amd cpu

That's a common misconception, when in fact INTEL CPUs are generally hotter than their AMD counterpatrts.

But the AMD GPUs do get hotter, no?
