Hello,

Do we have any Microsoft Flight Simulator users on here? I'm thinking about upgrading my current setup over to AM5 and wondering If it would be worth doing. I currently have the following specs:

  • AMD Ryzen 9 5900X
  • 32GB DDR4
  • RTX3080 (10GB Ram)
  • Running 1440p

I'm aware Microsoft Flight Simulator is one of those games that does like the cache that the X3D CPUs come with - I was originally thinking about swapping the CPU over to 5800x3d but not sure if there would be that much improvement over the 5900X and since AM4 is now end of support with AM5 being out I'm not sure if it would be really worth doing in the long run. Has anyone done a similar upgrade and noticed any performance bumps?

The second option was to look at building a new rig with a 7800X3D when they come out with necessary hardware to go with it (motherboard, ram) - It would be the more expensive approach to this.
