Thanks for any comments, this is the last purchase for my simulator build -trying to keep it under $1000

Should be just fine, I am using weaker PC and it works just fine. I am running very old I7-3770, 8GB of RAM, and GTX1060-3GB.Last edited by Gotkimchi; 02-21-2020, 05:32 PM. -
I will let some others comment on the computer, but was just writing to the thread to see if you have a recognized store near you that could build you a computer? We have a place here called Memory Express (they are in a few cities in Canada). I am pretty sure that for the same price of what you are looking to spend, one of these places could build you a computer that would be more future proof and add slightly better specs. For instance, at Memory Express you could get an AMD Ryz 5 3600 with 6 cores and 12 threads (better base and turbo clock speeds) for $10 more than the processor in the System you are looking at. Suspect you will find something similar in the GPU as well. Then just pick a cheap case (forgo the RGB lighting unless it is a must) and go from there. A good store will help recommend great components to ensure a fantastic build.
Just throwing it out there as something to consider.
PS, I just noticed this one had 8gb of Ram and I had thought most suggested 16gb.Comment

Dax, my understanding with Uneekor is that it must be Intel. So this computer is fine but going with an AMD variant would eliminate the ability for him to use Uneekor. Personally, I don't this computer is that bad. I would recommend upgrading the memory if its a single channel 8GB stick. If its dual channel 4 then that's likely fine. I'd prefer a 1660ti or a 2060Super, but the 1660 should be OK for the money you are investing. Find out what ram is being used and try to get another 8gb to match it identically. They are likely using pretty crap low speed stuff, so you may be better off getting a matched dual channel set for a little bit more.Comment

This computer will work great. I have I5-9400f, with a 1060 6gb video card, and 8gb and I run TGC 2019 just fine. And to SkeetShooter point, I had an AMD processor but had to change to Intel so I could use my Uneekor.Comment

This computer would be a big upgrade for $150 more... I7, 16gB ram and a 2060... Under $1000

Thanks guys -so now I'm talked into Sulli182's PC -I'll change to that since it's in the budget yet and checks a few more boxes -unless someone else changes my mind in the next few hours
