New Machine for P3D

Featured Replies

Hi All,

 

Haven't had a new machine since well before P3D was released.  My old machine died a quick and painless death so I was left with my laptop with an I7 4th gen 4500U at 1.6 GHz 2 core with a max turbo of 3.0 GHz and an Nvidia 745M.

P3D v3 actually runs well as long as the settings are fairly low.

 

At any rate here is my new machine.

 

Intel 6700k @ 4GHz

8 GB DDR4 @ 2666GHz

ASUS  Z170 Mobo

600W PS

GE Force GTX1060 8GB

Air cooled

 

Think it will run P3D v3 well?

 

I'm at my budget limit.

 

Thanks

Should do just fine as long as you don't slam all the settings to the max. If you can get the CPU clocked a little higher it will help.

You will have an awesome machine..and yes Over clock to around 4.5Ghz with an aircooler.

It's a great system for P3D. My 6700K is at 4.7GHz on water and HT on and the DDR4 is at 3.3GHz.  Really runs well.
