Pc builders in UK for msfs?

Featured Replies

Hi all. 

Any recommendations for PC builders in the UK please?  My last flight sim pc was from wired2fire many years ago.  I've also heard of chillblast. 

Regards 

I have had a number of Chillblast machines over the years and currently operate a top of the range system 

All my machines have been top notch

I've used Scan for my last two builds. Very happy with them.

I bought my last three machines from Power Computing.  Not a single fault (wish I hadn't said that)

My vote goes to Scan, just git a 7899x3D PC from them. Very pleased with the service and support.

Are you envisaging purchasing MSFS2024? Can you wait (possibly) 8 months to its release?

With more processing being performed on the server side rather than client, you may not need as much oomph for your PC as for MSFS2020, which will change what build specs you are looking for.

AMD Ryzen 5800X3D; MSI RTX 3080 Ti ; 32GB Corsair 3200 MHz; ASUS VG35VQ 35" (3440 x 1440)
Fulcrum One yoke; Thrustmaster TCA Captain Pack Airbus edition; MFG Crosswind rudder pedals; miniCockpit FCU; CPFlight MCP 737; Logitech FIP x3; TrackIR

MSFS; Fenix A320; A2A PA-24; HPG H145; PMDG 737-600; AIG; RealTraffic; PSXTraffic; FSiPanel; REX AccuSeason Adv; FSDT GSX Pro; FS2Crew RAAS Pro; FS-ATC Chatter

Also bear in mind your monitor if your not running 4K a 4090 will be wasted money. As any CPU will hold it back in flight sims.

There is also the choise of StormForce computers which VR-Flightsim Guy on Youtube highly recommends and supports and give his warmest recomendations on. After using them for 2 pc builds. Reasonably priced and quality parts/built.

He also have a discount code for potensial StormForce computer buyers! 

 

NO I do NOT have any affilation with any of them,

I can't get any of them in my country.. anyway.. so theres that.. 

But I think after working with VR flightsim guy, they should be reasonably experienced with Flightsim rigs ? 🙂

wired2fire , Mark from the SimHanger Youtube has a few vids with them recently..(check it out) another possible good flightsim build.

It seems all your suggestions have fallen on deaf ears. The OP hasn’t logged into AvSim since his original post.
