Hi Tikky, A good spot the post has been amended. Previously I was toying with a RTX 4070 Ti. How does this compare in FS2020 against the 3080 graphics card?

Many thanks to Scott and others for comments on an earlier thread. I am after a high end desktop for video editing using Premiere Pro and playing FS2020 with a very high resolution and frame rate. This link...

Hi Scott, Many thanks. Lots to consider. Kind regards

Hi Scott, Thank for your time in producing a new spec. Do you know when the AMD X3D will arrive at PCS and what the additional cost compared to the AMD Ryzen 9 7900X? I note you have gone with the BARRACUDA HDD. Is there any reason for this given I understand these to be slower and noisier...

Hi Scott Thanks for your reply. In response to you suggesting that for FS2020, the i713700K will out perform the i9-12900K, I will go for the i7 13700K. Regarding the AMD next generation of X3D, are you referring to the 24GB AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX (An additional £453 cf the GeForce RTX 3070...

Hi Scott Many thanks for your response. Regarding the processor, are you suggesting I should go for the i7-13700K rather than the i9-12900K? Will this i9 not give me inflation proofing for the next generation of flight simulators? The cost difference is £119 and if the performance difference...

Hi Tony, many thanks for the link.

Hi Scott, Grateful for feedback and advice. The reason for the Blu-Ray and DVD writer is to save family videos to disks to pass around the family. I can accept an external device but thought I would loose writing speed by connecting via a USB cable. An external optical reader would negate the...

Hello I am looking for a system that will cope with video editing using Adobe CS Premiere. This will consist of converting hundreds of Hi8 Analogue tapes to digital format. Then editing and saving to DVD/Blu-ray. I am also wanting to seriously play MS Flight Simulator and X-Plane 11 at the...

I would be very grateful for comments on the spec below. I intend to use the desktop for converting about 100 hours of Hi8 analogue video (convert to digital, edit and then save to DVD or Blu-Ray) and playing FSX and XPlane. The other project I have is to convert 500+ vinyl LPs to digital. This...

I intend to use this computer for video editing (inc. capture of analog Hi8 video), web design and gaming (mainly flight simulator). The areas I would welcome advice are: • Are there any mother boards which offer more that 3 PCI expansion slots. Ideally I need 4: one for Pinnacle Video Capture...
