Hi everyone, after launching Microsoft flight simulator I discovered a game I’d enjoy for long sessions. I saved the installer and started it on a budget PC setup. The experience is functional but sometimes suffers from stuttering and lag. Since I’m not familiar with building systems myself, you might consider me a beginner. I’ve shared my hardware details so you can see how they compare to the game’s requirements. Could you suggest which components to upgrade first to improve stability and graphics quality? Any suggestions for cost-effective upgrades would be appreciated.

I don’t have a budget yet, so let’s start from there. Once I know your budget, we can discuss the details.

With a budget around that amount, things become significantly simpler! Just considering the overall cost right away would push me to upgrade to 16GB of RAM.

Sure, I remember that point—I've got about £200 saved up, not a huge amount.

Great! From a financial perspective, the cost is approximately £200.

I’d likely choose a GPU upgrade given your budget of around 250 USD. A RX 5600 XT would be a solid option, offering good performance at 1080p and outperforming the 1660 Super and 1650 TI.
