Best PC/monitor for MS Flight Sim 2020 for under £3000

[DanP]

Hi. I'm hoping someone could advise me on the best, ready built PC, monitor and peripherals to be used solely to run MSFS2020.
I have a budget of around £3k, but that needs to cover the whole project.
I would ideally like to it to be able to run the sim with all settings maxed out, with a decent FPS.
Is this realistic?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Dan

My suggestions for any flight simulation is get a CPU with a high clock speed 4.0GHz and above, I prefer Intel and think that it works best with all Flight Simulators, have a good GPU 2060 Super or higher and dont forget storeage SSD 1TB minimum and a large HDD for so that most of the scenery can be loaded onto that. With regards to a monitor the bigger the better (Must have 1440p minimum and id suggest 32in), With regards to the Hardware go for something Like the Honeycomb Alpha and with the soon too be launched soon Bravo these would pair perfectly. Have a look on the OCUK site the Firefly pre bulit system is good just make sure to configuire a few changes as ive mentioned about
