Rig For Flight Simulation

[GuneyWRO]

I am looking to build a system for Flight Simulation. I am from Turkey but I am open to recommendations in USD, EUR, and TRY.

I use P3D and FSX. I need a system that can deliver 120FPS on the software. I have a 21.5" Monitor, and I don't feel like replacing it. The case should have at least 4 USB 2 or 3 Ports. Thanks

wtf happened

[FadedComplex]

If I use look at the minimum requirements for FSX is not a lot but 256MB of ram, 32 mb video card, direct x 9 etc.P3D has a 4GB GDDR5 and a cpu clock speed above 3 GHz so I would recommend a 1050ti or 1060 with a good 4 or 6 core cpu you can overclock or has a base clock over 3 GHz. I recommend a Ryzen 5 2600 or 1600 or if you want to do some rendering use a Ryzen 7 cpu or a decent 8 core intel chip.

I don’t think he needs a 1080ti a 1060 would do just fine

FSX is not demanding but the addon planes are

P3D and FSX are the same core, P3D add-ons work with FSX, and vice versa

That'll do good. For any gaming though, Intel would be better.

PMDG 777 alone wants at least 8 gigs

How about a 1070ti or an RX Vega 64 overclocked.

holy shit, good luck. in flight sims you have to be extremely lucky and have poured thousands of dollars into a rig and many hours of tweaks to even get a stable 60fps

Of RAM, not VRAM

How about getting a really high-specced PC like water-cooled i7, 32gb RAM, and GTX 1080 Ti. It won't be super expensive if you choose modest components. Somewhere along these lines would do:

The only thing I would recommend is some extra fans and RGB.?
