It looks good to me. I like the fact it’s got a 1200w psu. The psu is often overlooked but that should should keep going for years. Also got a DVD drive? I had to buy an external one as mine didn’t have one (neither did my previous pc!)

An RTX3800 and 64gb ram.. excellent :)

Hi Steve thanks for your kind words it was all expensive but I live for pc Games not just flight sims I have alot of steam Games including train sim and Eurotruckers 2 and I play Eurotruckers MP as well so even if I am no good with MFS yet my PC is not wasted lol

Kind Regards

This setup looks about as good as you can buy at the moment. It should provide years of enjoyment and you should see a really smooth flying experience in MSFS.

Nice system like that, chuck in another 3080 and it will soon pay for itself mining crypto when you are not using it. I'm making about £100 pm with a 3070 hashing at around 65 MH/s and those 3080s will hash at about 100 each :)

Hi Ian, how much would a 2080ti make?

I wouldn’t have a clue where to start but it sounds interesting

Sounds like a monster system that should handle msfs without a problem. However, you failed to mention one very important component which is critical to the softwares enjoyment - the monitor. If you're running it to a 27" 4k monitor, then it's complete overkill and a waste.

 

So, what kind of monitor(s) are you using?

MSI GeForce RTX 3080 Gaming X Trio 10GB GDDR6X PCI-Express Graphics Card 1

I can't speak to most of that, but the PC I ordered custom-built from HP (arrived Sunday) has a GeForce RTX 3070 GPU with 8 gb of ram, and from what little I've seen so far, runs FS 2020 quite smoothly in the high-resolution mode, in conjunction with an I7-1070 CPU. But I haven't "flown" into a dense urban area yet, so we'll see.

Hi stempski i use a "43 tv dont laugh I run it in 4k its only 60hz but good enough for me I am not a hard core flight simmer and indeed I have a lot to learn I have my reasons for using a tv which I wont bore you with lol

 

Kind regards
