i3 7350k the ultimate fsx "budget" CPU?

Recommended Posts

Howdyhoooo y'all! So there's been a lot of talk about the cheapo hyper-threaded Pentium G4560 (60-70€) with great single-core performance but, unfortunately, no unlocked multiplier. However, there's the i3 7350k with excellent overclock abilities, 5GHz no problem but with a big caveat: the price! It's costs here, where I live, around 200€ and then you have to add a Z270 board for it, another 150€. I would never consider the i3 7350k if I didn't play FSX a lot. I do play other games too but not to the same extent. I have a Pentium G3258 that now resides in my girlfriends PC which did a admirable job running FSX @4,0GHz so I reckon that i3 with HT+5GHz should do wonders for FSX performance. Anyone with experience using the i3 7350k out there let me know!

Cheers!/Andreas
