January 14, 20251 yr My only thought is the video card. You'll want more vram. I have the same cpu along with the amd 7900xt (20 gig), 64 ram, and it works well.

This is approximately how much the parts would cost if you build it out yourself today. Hardware: i7-8700k, GTX 1070-ti, 32GB ram, NVMe/SSD drives with lots of free space. Software: latest Windows 10 Pro, P3Dv4.5+, FSX Steam, and lots of addons (100+ mostly Orbx stuff).
January 15, 20251 yr Author My computer is another one by IBuyPower. The build quality was good. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.

The build quality was good. @Fielder Would you know if BestBuy can do upgrades to the PC at the time of purchase eg. more and faster RAM memory, no keyboard and mouse, and 16 GB GPU?

January 15, 20251 yr Author Bestbuy has a Geek Squad in every store (repair) but I seriously doubt that they are going to swap parts before purchase. OK here's another that is advertised as "coming soon" inside my local Best Buy that does have 16GB RAM GPU. It's $2350. "Coming soon" because it is 5070 instead of 4070. Also, is Skytech (a better reputation) IBuyPower is good. Skytech is very good. CyberPower is only fair to good quality. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/skytech-gaming-azure3-gaming-pc-amd-ryzen-7-9800x3d-64gb-memory-nvidia-5070-ti-2tb-nvme-ssd-white/6614826.p?skuId=6614826 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.
