First time Build

[Phillip Kashur]

What would be a good combination of hardware to run the new Microsoft flight simulator or iRacing and max or near max settings? I do want to water cool the PC. Thanks for the input everyone!

On what resolution?  You gotta pick how much monitor you want.  The more monitor the more gpu and the more of each the more money.

 

watercooling is more useful for gpus than CPUs these days.  They produce the kind of watts watercooling is good at dealing with.

I am not sure, I am kinda new to this. I do want a decent sized screen however.

What's your budget in your local currency? We can help with the best build for your budget. I take it you need a monitor in that budget as well.

Under 2000 dollars is the goal.
