August 22, 20205 yr Dear all, I'm kind of new to this forum. I think I joined long time ago but due to work got too busy so I didn't continue with FS until recently MSFS 2020 just came out, which got me really excited. So I'm planning to build a complete new PC system that would have the top-notch PC hardware everything in order to have the best frame rate possible running MSFS 2020. At the same time, I have an old and faithful Dell XPS 8500LE (CPU: Intel Core i7-3770) which I'm hoping that I can still "upgrade" it to some level, so that it can at least run MSFS 2020 to some level. Some quick questions: 1. If I purchase MSFS 2020, can I install it on two PCs? 2. What's the best possible frame rate in MSFS 2020, if I have top PC hardware such as i9-10900K and GeForce RTX 2080 TI (or Super)? 3. Do folks here have good experience with Honeycomb Alpha Flight Yoke and Switch Panel ($250)? Some youtube reviews said that it has some "dead zone" - which is NOT good for flying Cessna 150/152 or 172. Do folks here also found that's the case? If so, what's the best yoke and pedal money can buy for the most realistic FS experience?? 4. For my old Delll XPS 8500 LE (with Intel i7-3770 CPU), what kind of graphics card can I upgrade to? Do I need to also upgrade my power supply unit (PSU)? Would "any" PSU fit with this XPS 8500 case (which doesn't seem to be a standard mini-ATX case?? I'm planning to max out the RAM on this PC to 32GB. 5. I heard that the most advanced VR headset still does not have equivalent resolution and details as running a 2K or 4K monitor. Is this true? Should I be waiting for the next Gen VR headset to come out, and maybe buy a TrackIR for FS2020 for now? Thanks!
