Recommendations for Flight Sim 2020

[Bavarian_Okie]

Budget (including currency): USD 2,000

Country: USA

 

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Microsoft Flight Sim 2020

 

Other details I’ve been out of the loop for about a decade. No preference between AMD or Intel. What CPU/Motherboard/Graphic card would you recommend between the recommended and ideal specification. I would prefer for the USD2,000 to include the monitor. I’m not including the simulator peripherals in the price.
