Considering new PC for P3D

Featured Replies

Just make sure you give it good cooling.. P3D is the HOTEST sim I have ever used 🙂

Learning to fly gliders since 1980

Stopped using flightsims for good since early August 2026, after 34 yrs using some really great specimens... If I'm asked to name the preferred one, after all these years, MSFS 2024 is my answer without hesitation.

(No desktop :-// after the last one crashed for good, so no simming, but I keep polling AVSIM - my main ludic activities spot since around 2006...)

You schould consider also, to implement the fastest SSD as possible. Look at PCI 4 or better PCI5 capability and take a look on a Firecuda SDD f. ex. because of the high data reading rate. As faster the data can be load from scenery etc. into the RAM, especially while advancing in the flight, as less possible longframes or stutters will be caused.

P3D V6 -  PC spec: Intel i9-9900 overclocked 5 GHz HT off, 32 GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX3090 24GB, 2xM2 SSD, Skalarki HomeCockpit and Jeehell FMGS on a dedicated Server, PF3 for ATC, MCE, GSX, EFB, AS+ASCA+ENV and OrbXpf3-supporter.gif

Make sure you're balancing probable future needs vs the past/now - or you'll end up doubling up in costs long-term

Don’t do it. Unless you are planning to install your sim on a motorcycle or in a suitcase, go with a proper desktop. The compromises needed in mobo design for the small form factor will impact your performance potential considerably.
