So, for many reasons I decided to move from Xbox to PC, Im waiting on the parts to arrive to assemble it, (last pc I assemble was like 20+ years ago). :crossed_fingers:. Anyway, what shall I be aware of on PC?, what do you recommend me as first steps to have the sim up and running, meaning plugins,…

I recommend installing a debloated version of Windows 11 Pro. Here’s the method I used, along with the Windows features I chose to NOT install. I prefer to have a local user login, not a Microsoft Windows login, and it was very easy using the method in the linked video. My computer (and FS2024) h…

This has come up allot since the launch of MSFS, do a search on moving from XBOX. EX: [image] First PC Build a move from Xbox to PC Hardware & Peripherals Hi All, I’m looking to build my first PC which will only be used for Microsoft Flight Sim & TSW 4. I’m…

Cool thanks, Im just asking not on the recommended build, as I do have that already. But software related to have me up and started with the sim in the “best” possible way. I do have to mention I have the TCA side stick and quadrant, ( I was using it on xbox, is fantastic).

Care to share your component list?

Yes I did, actually it was my in my first build list, but needed to bring things down in order to get that processor. Worst case scenario, I get an extra 32 pair. We will see how will it behave. :slight_smile: Im gonna check those addons and so.

There have been reports of people having issues with 4 DIMM’s and AMD CPU’s. That’s why I put the 2x32GB notation in there. Personally, I built a 5800X3D system running with 4x16GB almost 4 years ago, and had no problems, although I think my memory latency was higher than it might have been if I’d…
