    Hi there,

    Looking to build a PC for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. Screenshot attached it for minimum, recommended and ideal requirements. I would be looking to build something in between recommended and ideal, that would work well at 1440p.

    Budget would be €1000-€1500. No monitor, keyboard or mouse required.

    Any help much appreciate.

    Prices might not be correct - have a quick look around Memoryc.ie, Paradigit.ie & Amazon UK + DE.

    This should get you a relatively-stable 60fps at 1080p, going by these benchmarks.

    Thanks very much for the info Kiki. Regarding the GPU, that particular model won't ship to Ireland from Amazon. Will this be just as good? https://amzn.eu/d/0roLfpr

    Sapphire 11323-02-20G Pulse AMD Radeon RX 7900 XT Gaming Graphics Card with 20GB GDDR6, AMD RDNA 3

    It €763 probably bit more when you add tax €783 but ship from Amazon from Amazon so any problem might be easier to deal with.
