Hey guys

 

I'm planning to build a PC that can handle everiting in Flight simulator X (and other work)

 

The current specs are

CPU: I7-7700k (Overclocked to 5 ghz if possible)

GPU: ?

MB: Asus Z270 Formula

PSU: Corsair AX1200i or Corsair AX860

Case: Corsair 750D Airflow Edition (Already purchased)

CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i V2?

MEM: Corsair Vengeance LED 32Gb (4x8gb) Or Corsair Vengeance RGB 32Gb (4x8gb)

 

My question is wat GPU I should buy?

 

Regards Mouse

Everything looks good, I too agree you should go with a 1070. Depending on how much money you've got to spend on a GPU, you could even get a 1080.

 

But why a 1200W power supply...that thing costs over $400 CAD which is total madness - it almost costs as much as your CPU and you won't use anywhere near 1200W, maybe half of that. A 650W would be just fine. Get something like a Corsair RMx or EVGA G3/G2/P2, etc.
