Ok, what mobo would you suggest (not willing to spend more than 150 eur on it). Is there a better chipset you would reccomend? thanks!

Hey guys, I worked rather hard in the past few weeks, and my budget just got higher :) This is the upgrade I am thinking about: Current SYSTEM: CPU i7 4790k running at 4.5 Ghz GeForce GTX780 16 GB RAM 1866 Mhz Asus Z97M-plus MOBO NEW System: CPU i7 7700k Nvidia 1080 GTX 8GB MOBO Asus PRIME B250-PLUS RAM Corsair Cmu32gx4 m4 C3200 C16b Vengeance 32 Go (4 x 8 Go) DDR4 3200 MHz C16 XMP 2.0 I already have a good SSD (Samsung 840) which I am not going to change. What do you guys think, will I gain a lot in performances or it's not worth the 1300 Euros I need to spend on this. Thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot to both! I guess I'll stick with what I have...let's see when P3d v4 comes out

Thanks for moving the post, sorry for misplacing it! I would appreciate some expert advice from the community on this Thanks!

Dear Community, I am considering an HW update for my desktop. Today I am running P3D with ORBX, AS16, GSX, and REX airport HD textures and a few addon airliners as well. I am running the simulator almost at max settings (only textures are pulled back to 1024 to aovid too many VAS usage issues). My system is the following: CPU i7 4790 running at 4.5 Ghz GeForce GTX780 16 GB RAM 1866 Mhz Asus Z97M-plus MOBO What would be the quickest win in terms of FPS for P3D. An update of Graphic card or CPU? Which graphic card would you suggest to have some noticeable improvements without spending a fortune (middle-range, I'm looking into the 300 Eur budget, not more)? Thanks a lot for the help!

I am using FSXWX, it's free, and it does the job for me (using P3d 2.3). The only thing, make sure you have simconnect in the old FSX folder..this program however connects to SUIPC from P3D and correctly transfers/updates regularly the weather. It's a very small app, takes up 0 resources, I love it! http://www.plane-pics.de/fsxwx/home.htm
