Hi all,

Not been around here for some years and have not built my own system for years either but looking for some help and advice to spec out a system build for myself to run MSFS 2020 simulator.

Not sure on budget yet maybe something around £1,000 ish give or take

As i have not built my own system for so long i am way behind on tech and the current standards out there so any advice would be appreciated suggested build spec

No sure yet in early days.

No current spec as no gaming PC but the screen does not need to be factor into the build yet

Hi

Theres is a shortage of graphics cards at the moment and prices are so inflated but some pre built systems mite be an option.

resolution can play a fig factor as your GPU my not power it well etc etc. and Flight Sim love RAM and Vram!

£1k pre-built looking at RTX 2060 and ryzen 3600/i5 10500

Just throwing this out there, perhaps heresy on a PC forum, but if you are just building for MSFS and on a budget it's coming to Xbox series X in the summer.
