April 22, 20188 yr I have a 4th gen Intel I-4790 @3.60GHz and I have a GTX 745 in my computer. I usually get around 15fps in P3D V4 at daytime at payware airports. I would like to know if it would be more beneficial to upgrade to an i7-8700k or get a new graphics card (i.e.GTX 1080). Also, budget is not an issue for this question. Any help would be much appreciated, Thank You! Zane Huston Intel I7- 9700K, Zotac GTX 1070TI Mini, Asus TUF Z390 Plus WiFi, 16GB Corsair Vengence LPX DDR4-3200 P3d V4.3, X-Plane 11.30
April 22, 20188 yr You wont need to upgrade the CPU. Just overclock it into the high 4"s with a good cooler of course ZORAN
April 22, 20188 yr Your CPU is by far the stronger component in your system. The GTX 745 was never meant to be much of a gaming card. Edited April 22, 20188 yr by Dave_YVR i7-13700KF, 32gb DDR4 3200, RTX 4080, Win 11, MSFS 2024

Greg Edit: Since budget seems not to be a concern, simply update the entire system! Edited April 22, 20188 yr by lownslo
