Suggestions for improving my PC

Featured Replies

Hello everyone,

 

below are my current PC specs. My computer has done a good job for the last few years, but in times of 4K and MSFS it is no longer up to date.

I would be happy if you could give me some tips on how I can finally fly the MSFS and the Fenix smoothly with my 4K monitor. Currently I scaled down to 1280x1080 and on the near lowest settings.

Feel free to throw a few modification options in the pot. Money should now be pushed into the background.

Please move my Topic to the right subtopic - thanks.
 

Many thanks for your help!

Tim

Hi Tim,

You already have a very nice system. The one big improvement to be made is video. I went from a RTX2080 to a RTX3090 and saw a massive improvement. I would look at the new RTX4000 series cards and purchase the best one you can afford. A RTX4070 with 12gigs of vram goes for around $800USD this should provide smooth FPS and you may find it not necessary to upgrade any other components. 

As another example see my specs in my sig below, I can run PMDG at complex scenery all options on ultra and still manage smooth frame rate.

I agree, your graphics card is weak.
