Thanks to this pandemic & the new Microsoft Flight Simulator (MFS) game I need to upgrade my (neglected) desktop PC. I've been out of the loop but from some of the reviews & benchmarks I've read/watched, very impressed by AMD's Ryzen line-up. Wish I could build a new system based on that but budget is tight at the moment. Therefore, want to upgrade what I currently have:
Therefore focus for now will be on RAM & GPU...
GPU-wise, I would like something that can handle MFS without breaking bank & consider my current i5-6600 CPU & PSU.
RAM I believe any DDR4 should work so I can pick up some 16GB 3200MHz sticks & will even be compatible with my, hopefully future AMD build
TIA
