Hi

I'm thinking of having a pc built for me, i5 3.9mhz processor, RTX Nvidia 360 12GB card and 32gb ram 3200mhz.....wud it do the job do you think, its all cost you see, ive priced up an i7 but its another 160 pounds and I need to draw a line somewere..  morgage, 3 children etc.. . What are your thoughts please before I take the plunge??

 

Thanks

Please clarify the following:

You say "2nd gen i5" in the title and  "i5 3.9mhz processor", which is unclear as second generation i5s are about 10 years old and did not run as high as 3.9G(not m)hz. Which specific processor are you asking about? eg. 11500

You say "Nvidia 360 12GB". I assume you mean 3060?

At what resolution and settings level do you intend running FS2020? 1080p, 2K, 4K, VR? eg. 2K and ultra. This has a major impact on what system is recommended.

Sorry....i5.10600k 4.1ghz running at 1080p but will be wanting to move up to 4k in 12 to 18 months..yes.  .graphics card is rtx 3060 12gb...sorry for the confusion!

No worries.

At 1080p you should be able to run such a system at ultra settings and get very good performance. At 4K your video card may struggle to achieve a similarly high level of performance without turning some settings down, but you should still be able to run it at mostly high settings (which IMO looks very close to ultra anyway).

I know someone who recently bought a system with a similar specification to the one you propose and they are very happy with the performance and visual quality they are getting in FS2020.

Thank you for taking the time out to reply.....I guess I will go for it then....many thanks!

Honestly 4k is a waste 1440P Its the best of both worlds good visuals and performance.
