Can't give you full picture but here is my data point: 4080(24G) with 2K in MSFS is totally fine, high to Ultra setting and smooth at ~80ish FPS, but I didn't fly too much of it so I can't say how it would work with complex add-on (presumably you'll want run FSL's Concord when it came to MSFS?), the iniSim A310 works fine then. And also smooth without much issue in 4K VR(Quest3 4128X2208) while some settings been dialed down a bit, The only reason I kinda regret not get 4090 is not able to run X-Plane in VR smoothly, but it's more likely XP's issue though

It's no longer required and even not recommended nowadays

Hmmm, the panel shape is quite odd, so it seems unlikely you can fit one big screen for each side to cover the LMFD+RWR, and RMFD+all other gauges on the right But if I do it, I'll still likely use one 9" or so screen for RMFD+ engine gauge, a 5" or 7" for the top right 3, and one 5" for the middle 2. Not sure what sim you are look into, for MSFS or P3D or X-Plane I think AirManager could do it.

I'm not super into tactile feeling so I ended up getting a 7" touchscreen for MCDU, maybe 10" is more like the realworld size but my desk is small anyway... I'd suggest you just try one and see if you need go further to full CDU anyway, after I tired my own 7" one I just don't feel like I'll really need a much expensive thing for the same purpose for now. I'd suggest spend extra money on MCP/EFIS control or Yoke, even Gear lever which have more impact on feeling. Pro is super cheap (sub $30), compatible for both different type (say I also fly EJets, Q400, CRJ and even GTN750.) and different add-ons (Most P3D one can be pop-out on to it, while some X-Plane one would require WebFMC, the only one add-on I have can't use with it is inisim A300/A310) Cons is of course no tactile feeling, and it might be tricky if you don't have extra HDMI/DP output for it(you can go displaylink with USB then as I do)

Does it works with it's own driver with auto calibration or windows general driver? I used to have problem with auto calibration driver came from saitek. If it's manual calibration then it's more likely faulty pot or connection, which should be easy to fix if you know how to "replace the pedometer", and if the mechanical build is sound (judge from some picture I found online about "Prime Cockpit nosewheel tiller", it looks OK-ish?). Worst case would be the problem is in the control broad, but swapping it with a open source one like MJoy16 wouldn't be much harder than that I guess, I learned about it just for build a MCP.

Your oldest flight sim products - hardware and software.
C2615 replied to Ray Proudfoot's topic in Hangar Chat
The oldest device I still using isn't even a flight sim product... it's a G27's shifter... I use it in flight sim as Landing gear lever, and also buttons for things like trim, wiper, ND range etc.... BUT the G27 is also still working for my sim racing part, not bother go DD anytime soon.... -
Just press the next with mouse should work If you installed the TM's own driver there should be no need for manual calibration, but you'll need to give it a full travel each time after powered up to get it's automatic calibration work. Mine used to have loose wire that will pulse a faulty signal, making the software think the normal range is just little part of faulty full range, causing problem.

I haven't built home cockpit but I do have quite a lot screens and USB controllers, 1PC is enough, I have 4 monitor on my 4080 and one more on a USB3.0 adapter which is plugged in by a 10 port USB powered adopter with other USB input devices, so I guess the number of ports on your MB/GPU isn't really matter that much (still I use one with quite a lot USB port and almost used up them all by now).

X-Plane 11 & JSim 737-200 Both on Sale, so...
C2615 replied to Tim_Capps's topic in The X-Plane General Discussions Forum
Make sure you have this aerodynamic mod installed so you can fly by the book https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/forums/topic/259877-737-200-performance-mod/ FJS got the system nicely done, but the default aerodynamic is just way off.... I also quite miss PDCS from TinMouse... The only old bird I still visit in P3D is HJG Dassault Mercure, surprisingly well simulated systems, with quite different procedure and care needed. -
ILS and runway saved in AFD data is all in true heading, so magvar should not have any impact on it, unlike VOR then.
