December 4, 20241 yr I have a 737 cockpit with a samsung 4k 78” screen at the front and running MSFS2020 I want to add another two 70” tv’s at 4k would my GPU RTX3080ti handle these extra resolutions? I tested yesterday with my 65” TV and was pretty smooth. Would my CPU and MB handle a 40 series card if i want to upgrade my GPU?

December 4, 20241 yr Also keep power supply requirements in mind. For example, I think the recommended minimum PSU for the RTX 4090 is 850 watts. Al Edited December 4, 20241 yr by ark
December 4, 20241 yr CPU is still good. PSU 1000W+GPU would be the best. Edited December 4, 20241 yr by 40track

December 4, 20241 yr Author Thanks for the response guys. I’m pretty sure i have an EVGA 1000w PSU but let me double check later. So my CPU + MB will be fine running a 40 series correct? Vernon Howells

December 4, 20241 yr If your CPU and MB is running the 30 series card and PS is running ok, a 40 series card will work. But do you really need a 40 series card? I might upgrade my card next year it's about 4 years old but it's still running great with 2024 with ultra settings.

December 5, 20241 yr Think CPU Upgrade is better than GPU Upgrade at this point! I'm running an older system with a 2080 Super and am still Main Thread bound and not GPU Bound on all High Settings. Even if I upgraded to a 4090ti I'd still be CPU Main Thread Bound! Chris Camp

So my CPU + MB will be fine running a 40 series correct? Go amd for cpu and upgrade Gpu and PSU.to 1000w I have a 7950x3d from a 9900k Amazing performance. With a 3080ti at 4k If anything in the future i can always drop a 9950x3d in same board Which is great. Mike
December 5, 20241 yr I have a 11900k/RTX4090 and triple 4k tvs. I am sometimes CPU bound and sometimes GPU bound depending on where I am flying/airports/weather etc. With 3x4k tvs you will need the Vram of a 4090. Run tvs with"soap opera" enabled at 25fps and you'll be happy at most airports. Your CPU is good enough. You will, of course, benefit from a 14900k or a 9800x3d, but I'd prioritize a 4090 GPU.

With DLSS and frame gen as well. You may wait a couple of months for the release of the 5090, either to get that or to get the 4090 at lower price. 7800X3D | 2x32 GB DDR5-6000 CL32 | RTX 5080 | Alienware OLED 34" | 1 Gbps fiber
