Hello, I'm planning to assemble the perfect PC for MSFS 2020 using the sysreq from the link you provided. For the CPU, I can't use the 9800X, so I'm considering either an i9-10900 or an i7-10700K. The GPU will be the ROG-STRIX-RTX2080S-O8G-GAMING. RAM options include the Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB 2x16GB DDR4 3200MHz CL16 or the Corsair Vengeance RGB PRO 4x8GB DDR4 3200MHz CL16 Kit. Storage requirements are basic—just need M2 and PCIe slots, so I'm thinking of the Transcend 110S TS512GMTE110S 512GB SSD NVMe PCIe Gen3. Regarding cooling, the A500 seems suitable, though I'm not sure about MoBo, just want compatibility with two Nvidia GPUs.

Typically, a poor CPU cooler was a bad choice—models like Mugen 5, NH-D15 or DRP4 would work better. If you plan to get an Intel processor, consider getting an unlocked CPU.

When will it happen? Is it the same time every year? I didn't know What is IIRC? I will check if my local store have these items. I chose the A500 because of linus's video so... Hahaha What do you mean by unlocked cpu and why intel is so bad? It seems like everyone does not recommend buying intel Il, it supposed to be a gift so there is no limit but I want to avoid spending to much, max price without a case is like a dell xps 13 inch for example.

Intel performs adequately, but AMD often delivers better results and lower costs. Unlocked components allow for overclocking.

Which nation are we discussing? Rates vary by location.

However, temperatures rise more, particularly with the CPU

Yes, the AMD GPUs tend to heat up more compared to other options.
