Flight Sim PC

[osjd8310r]

I am a flight sim enthusiast. I watch a channel on twitch,(gongshowkid561) and he rocks an I7 8700K, 32gb ram, and gtx 1080 FE. I am looking for a pc with a 6c 12t or more. Oh, and under about $1300 CAD. If I need to I can stretch it to $1700. 

 

Thanks, Owen

I would get a I7-8700/9700k and a 2060 super or maybe a 2070 super, and 32 gb of ram.

Do you need keyboard/mouse monitor?  What resolution are you looking to or already gaming at?  I would lean towards a ryzen system 3600 or 3700x.  What games are you looking at playing, will you be streaming as well?  Will you use your pc for anything besides gaming?

Looking at X-Plane 11, CS:GO, Farming Simulator. XP11 would be most demanding. 1920x1080. No need for peripherals. Just a pc. Possible stream. Just gaming

I would think a ryzen 3600 system with 16 gb ram 3200 - 3600 mhz, and an rtx 2060 or rx 5700 should work well at 1080p.
