MSFS seems to get CPU bound before it gets GPU bound and Ive seen quite a few people get the greatest £2000 cards and not see "that" much improvement, considering their outlay.
Yep 100% agree on the "advice" bit, lesson learnt there as it seems I really have no real viable upgrade solutions...
Too be fair to the 6700xt hasn't actually been that bad. I can fly in VR, with a quest2 headset on mostly medium settings and I can get about 25fps. This does take a fair bit of witchcraft with openxr toolkit and oculus debug tool though.
Thanks Tony, yep I've upgraded my drives, the evo plus is still my boot drive, and is currently 50% free. The 1TB QVO drive is now my "documents, pics, vids" drive and I purchased a Solidigm P44 Pro 2TB M.2 drive. This handles MSFS and all its files, currently 72% free
Thank you for your response. Yep, a "better system all round" is always the "best" solution but currently Im just looking to gain a bit more headroom in MSFS, and my research seems to suggest this would be a good move, for not that much money, around £250.
My system actually works very well, as...
Hiya, yes, I'm just considering upgrading the processor, sorry for not making that clearer.
So, will the 5800x3d "fit" into my current build
As for not getting advice, I did, two years ago when I ordered this system.....but that was 2 years ago
Monitor is MSI Optix MPG341CQR 21:9 UWQHD 3440×1440
With regards budget, thats not really the question. As i say, cant afford a new build and I believe my current system will not allow new gpu etc because the case is too small.
Is the 5800x3d a straight swap in my current system?

Evening all
Currently running the 5600xt and looking to upgrade to the 5800x3d.
Use the PC solely for MSFS 2020, can't afford a new build, so looking for "best bang for the buck" upgrade. 5800x3d gets good reviews for msfs.
Current build actually works very well for 2d but looking for a bit...
I assume this is an automated response....if monitor was an issue I'd have mentioned, I stated what I wanted to do with it and again if budget was an issue I'd have mentioned. We aren't all 10
This seems to be my main stumbling block. How easy is it to overcome for a non PC person ?
"The graphics card you have selected has a length of approximately 33cm and the case you have selected can only support graphics cards up to 27cm in length when configured with the PCS FrostFlow 240...
Evening all....I run MSFS and DCS flight sims and I'm starting to get into VR. Now whilst I can run this "ok" with my current setup I've been looking into upgrade options, with regards the GPU. Seems no matter what I do, using the pcspecialist upgrade options, either my case is too small, my...
Morning all......Last couple of days whilst playing on computer my screens go black, i can still here the game in background but all screens loose signal. I then have to shutdown PC and start again. Thoughts ?
