I'm looking to upgrade from FSX to X Plane 11, would these system specs be good enough to run XP11 with 30+ fps with;

- Ortho scenery for most of Europe and some of the USA

- Payware scenery such as True earth GB and a range of global airports

- Addon aircraft such as FF757, FF767, FFA320, Zibo 737 etc

 

The specs are:

CPU : Intel Core i7 8700K Six Core Socket 1151 (3.7GHz, 12MB Cache, Hyperthreading, Overclockable)

CPU Cooler : Cooler Master MasterLiquid 240 CPU Water Cooler

CPU Thermal Paste :Standard Thermal Paste

Graphics Card : nVidia GeForce RTX 2070 8GB GDDR6 Graphics Card

I would recommend 32gb of memory. I can easily reach 16gb of Ram usage running XP11+Ortho. 

Although I'm normally an Intel fan, the latest Ryzen 3000 CPUs have just been announced and look very good so may be worth waiting for: https://www.anandtech.com/show/14407/amd-ryzen-3000-announced-five-cpus-12-cores-for-499-up-to-46-ghz-pcie-40-coming-77
