I even think the contrary. But I exactly get what I want. Now prices vary from country to country. Speaking of France. That has been my experience as well over several decades of building my own and a few friends' PCs. The big assemblers get parts cheaper than I can is part of it I'm sure. I'm still using my last build, vintage early 2014 using SB-E chip now o'c'd at 4.3 to 4.4Ghz going on 6y, with original GTX Titan. Works well enough for P3D3.4. When the new sim comes out I am going to look around for a commercial system builder and let someone else do it this time and use latest gen parts. I just need to research who's best at it. Noel System: 9900X3D Noctua NH-D15 G2, MSI Pro 650-P WiFi, G.SKILL 64GB (2 x 32GB) 288-Pin PC RAM DDR5 6000, WD NVMe 2Tb x 1, Sabrent NVMe 2Tb x 1, RTX 4090 FE, Corsair RM1000W PSU, Win11 Home, LG Ultra Curved Gsync Ultimate 3440x1440, Phanteks Enthoo Pro Case, TCA Boeing Edition Yoke & TQ, Cessna Trim Wheel, RTSS Framerate Limiter w/ Front Edge Sync.

Future proofing is simple math really: Resident evil 5 (2009) Minimum specs CPU: Intel Core™ 2 Quad 2.4GHz or better, AMD Phenom™ II x4 3.4GHZ or better. RAM: 4GB or better. OS: Windows 7. VIDEO CARD: 512 MB VRAM, NVIDIA® GeForce 9800 series or better, ATI Radeon HD 7770 or better. Since 2019 Ram has increased at about 1.2GB per year, and VRAM has increased at about .35GB per year. That math would bring us to 28GB RAM and 7.5GB VRAM in 2029. It's all the same in the end. Build super high-end now and upgrade in 10 years. Build high end now and upgrade in 5-6 years. Build middle end now and upgrade every 2-3 years. Build low end now and upgrade every year. My 2014 build is just about due for an upgrade 5 years later. I could have sprung for 16GB and a 980ti at the time and it would run 2019 games no problem...so the math works 🙂 Edited October 29, 20196 yr by Flybynumbers

I tend to agree, build super high-end and be set for about 10 years and that is likely the most cost effective route.
