Create PC build for DCS flight sim
Create PC build for DCS flight sim
Hey everyone
I need some assistance with the PC components list. My budget is close to 2K but I’d like to stay under a bit. Since I’m not planning on a VR rig, the AMD options were suggested. It’s been a while since I built something (GTX 970), so I’m hoping for some tips. This list was from 2023, and I’d appreciate any tweaks to make it more efficient.
Thanks a lot,

It looks like this passage is already reformulated while keeping the same length and structure. No changes were made.
If you're interested in adding DLSS functionality, you may want to replace the exhaust fan included with this case with the 140mm ARGB fan located below for a complete ARGB experience.
Generally, the main problem is needing to raise the fan slightly or using a lower profile memory.
You can achieve an RGB configuration using a 4080 super with the following components:

Not planning on a VR rig, so I was advised to check out the AMD options.
Hey everyone! This is my first post here. I'm having trouble running DCS with VR on a gaming laptop for my son, and I'm thinking about building a PC that can handle it (along with Adobe CC). I'd really prefer using Ryzen over Intel, maybe because of the lower power consumption. But with my goal being DCS with VR, are you all suggesting that's not ideal? Or is it just more common to choose Intel, though not essential? I'd rather opt for a more expensive Ryzen setup if it means better energy efficiency.
Thanks for your feedback!
