You'll need Case fans, Monitor and a whole lot of other stuff.

 

Take a look at my rig "Centurion".

You'll need to get hard drives and probably an ssd (load times in flight simulators really benefit from a decent SSD like a samsung 850 pro or something), and you'd probably want a non-stock cooler at some point though stock would probably be fine for a while.

Also what operating system are you using? Because Flight sims use a lot of ram but you can't use more than 16 GB on certain versions of windows.

The specs are a little old though....... So replace the 4690K with a 6500 or 6600K.

 

The 970 can be swapped for a 1070. Mobo would need to be swapped out for H170 or Z170.

 

Looks Decent. You'll need to add OS, decent CPu cooler and some case fans

@DebatED Nothing GOOD APArt from the ssd, to expensive.that will be  would this be good  for fsx and p3d

What about this, I changed it to a 250GB SSD. I really recommend an SSD for flight sims as it really helps with loading times. http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/82zvVY

@AluminiumTech DUDE! i have a budget of about £630. IM just a kid ya know

Oh............ Hey. Half of the people on the forum are under 18! Including me lol :). (I'm 17 but that's besides the point).

 

Get this as @herman mcpootis suggested.

 

Except I'd add another 8GB for a total of 16 since many games now suggest this.

I think he could go like 20-30 pounds over initial budget.
