We will start your simulator build with PC selection. If you already have a powerful PC capable of running the simulator, you can skip this step.
CPU: You want to get the most powerful CPU you can for your PC. Currently, the AMD 7800X3D is not only the most powerful but also the best bang for your buck. If you opt for another AMD chipset, ensure you get the x3D version, which is the best for flight simulators. If you also plan to use your PC for tasks like video editing, the Intel 13900K is a great option.
4K
1080p
GPU: Next, you need to decide whether you want a setup with three monitors/TVs or just one. We highly recommend a three-monitor/TV setup as it's the only way to achieve proper side views for your simulator. However, a three-monitor setup requires your system to generate three times the graphics. For this, we recommend the RTX 4090 or at least the RTX 4080. If you decide on a single monitor setup, the RTX 4070 might suffice.
Note on Wide/Curved Monitors: While widescreen monitors might seem like a good choice, they only provide a marginal increase in your point of view (POV). If you decide to use a single monitor, you might want to consider TrackIR to enhance your POV.
