Budget (including currency): USD - Cheap, but can run program and has upgrade path

Country: United States

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Golf Simulation FSX Play (system requirements below)

FSX PLAY Software Installation

System Requirements:
(minimum spec)
  • Operating System: 64 Bit Windows 10 or greater
    • not supported: iOS, Linux
  • Processor: 7th Gen or greater Intel i5, i7, and i9 processors
    • not recommended: AMD CPU

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc):  I would like to run this software at 4k on a 120" projector for a home simulator setup.  Space is not an issue and I plan to buy soon.  Would like an upgrade path if possible.

 

Thanks!

Rule 0 of asking for a PC build on the internet: dont give a blank check to strangers. State how much do you want to spend that is responsible for your financial state.

Let’s call the budget $1000 max but I would prefer less but I am not sure what is reasonable.  If $1000 isn’t enough to meet the requirements then what would be that I wouldn’t regret later.
