Hi folks,
I'm wanting to get back into flight sim. Used to love playing FSX & things look like they have advanced rather a lot since then 🙂. Had my current PC Specialist machine for over 10 years so I want to purchase a new computer & new monitor also. Plan would be to mainly use P3D V5 (with ORBX, PMDG, ActiveSky etc) for next few years and maybe consider switching to MSFS2020 after...so if possible to "future proof" would be great. (Going to be purchasing from PC Specialist and don't want to build my own)
I don't really know a great deal about hardware, what's better, NVIDIA/AMD, or even 4k/1440p etc? From reading forums past few weeks - is this the right time to buy?
Budget is anything up to £3500 for both pc & monitor.
Have been looking into these, if anyone has any experience of using them:

Appreciate this could be a rather big topic, so any thoughts on any of this would be really welcome!
Thanks in advance,
Rich
