It's always a long journey when you build a new PC whatever is just a normal PC or a PC to a cockpit. I have now done this a couple of times and it takes a lot of time and it quite a big work to keep track of all the components we need to install to keep this running. This time my new build went very well. Quite straight forward with Windows 10 on a USB stick and all the necessary drivers. A NAS where all the flightsim stuff are placed and a install checklist like we are using every time we are flying. Here you find mine in ODT and Word format.
It was about time to upgrade my main PC. The old 4790K did a good job, my MIP PC was about to be upgraded so why not upgrade my main PC and move the 4790K to the MIP PC. The Specs for the new main PC is: Motherboard : Asus Strix Z270F CPU : Intel i7700K 4.2 (clocked to 4.9) Memory : 16 GB 3000Mhz Graphics : Nvidia 1070 GTX HDD : Corsair M.2 SSD 250 GB (OS) HDD : Corsair M.2 SSD 480 GB (P3D) PowerSupply : Corsair 850W Cooler : Corsair Hydro H100 OS : Windows 10 Pro Very smooth installation of Windows and P3D. Runs great without stutters on my three monitors 5750X1080 Some components for the MIP PC (cooler, powersupply)
Just a short video showing how I'm updating my Prosim Suite. Many are using the Automatic update but I prefer to update mine manually.
