July 13, 20178 yr You can find the option on the FMC (if in a cold and dark state just keep pressing "MENU") inside the PMDG options somewhere. I am not at home so i cannot confirm the exact location.

Hi Richard, I was surprised to not find this in the Introduction Table of Contents so I searched on keyword "license" and first hit was on "IMPORTANT - READ THIS PAGE," sorry but it is in all caps. Bottom bullet has the information you seek. Dan Downs KCRP
July 14, 20178 yr Author Hi Dan, You must be getting used to being a star! I have to admit to not having thought of the Introduction manual. I was searching the PMDG forums and was surprised not to have found something referring to it. All set now for my upgrade to i7-6700k, z270, 1080ti + 2xSSD. Again, many thanks.

Maybe not quite the 1080 as it is way too pricey for me, but a 1070 Ti maybe. Question? Is that an Intel CPU that would handle the P3D v4 that I have not quite got around to buying as I want the system to be able to handle the v4, without issues? Rick Almeida

There is no such thing as a 1070 Ti... Only "plain" 1070, 1080 and 1080 Ti.

As long as you have external graphics, you're fine. Integrated graphics on the card will be awful. I tried it, just to see how bad it would be, before I put my cards in. Kyle Rodgers
July 14, 20178 yr Author Hi Rick, Yes, an Intel CPU overclocked to 4.8GHz (according to supplier). I have now modified my planned config to: i7-7700k 16GB DDR4 Z270 Gaming 8 mobo GTX 1080ti SM961 M.2 512GB SSD SM961 M.2 1TB SSD 650W PSU Corsair Hydro Series H100i v2 Performance Liquid CPU Cooler I am still undecided whether I should get the second SSD or just a single 1TB SSD. Also haven't yet identified a suitable 28-32" 4K monitor.

July 14, 20178 yr Stupid, but why would you suspend? What if you just do a reinstall, or am I missing something? Ty, Maikel Rozemeijer NL

Stellar single core performance and overclock potential at reasonable pricing. Especially if one were to de-lid it. Regardings the SSDs, one for both, your Windows install and simulator, would probably be enough, unless you are using your PC in some kind of high-end multimedia production or gaming role.

Get one and save a chunk of cash and get a 2TB + regular spinner for bulk storage. 650W PSU to drive a 1080Ti isn't much, I'd be looking at least 750W and at least gold rated from a reputable brand. That goes bad and it'll take everything out. Cheers, Chris Brand

I currently have an EVGA GTX970 4Gb but I have a feeling that it might not just cut the mustard were I to move from FSX-SE/P3Dv2/P3Dv 3 to v4, and my budget does not quite extend to a 1080, so maybe a 1070.
