Flight Simulator PCs

Flight Simulator PCs

Built for smooth cockpits, clean frames, and multi-display realism

Flight sim performance is often limited by CPU boost, frame pacing, and high-res rendering. These desktops are configured for stable long-haul sessions—hand-built, thermally tuned, and stress-tested before shipping.

What matters for flight sims

  • Strong CPU boost for smoother main-thread performance
  • GPU headroom for higher resolution, clouds, and terrain detail
  • Stable thermals for long sessions without throttling
  • Ports + connectivity for yokes, throttles, pedals, and VR

Common setups

  • Single 1080p/1440p display (best value)
  • Ultra-wide monitor for cockpit immersion
  • Dual/triple displays for panels + outside view
  • VR-ready builds for the most realistic experience

Recommended specs by setup type

Flight sims scale hard with resolution, scenery detail, and extra displays/VR. Use these tiers to pick the right system, then choose a build in the collection that matches (or exceeds) it.

Single Display Tier

Great value for 1080p / 1440p

Best for: single monitor or ultra-wide, balanced settings.

  • CPU: Modern high-boost 6–8 core
  • GPU: RTX 4060/4070-class or newer
  • RAM: 32GB recommended
  • Storage: NVMe SSD for fast loads
Multi-Display Tier

More headroom for panels + outside view

Best for: dual/triple displays, higher terrain/cloud detail.

  • CPU: Strong 8-core preferred
  • GPU: RTX 4070 Ti / 4080-class or newer
  • RAM: 32GB–64GB recommended
  • Storage: 1TB+ NVMe SSD ideal
VR / Ultra Tier

Maximum smoothness for VR realism

Best for: VR headsets, highest settings, heavy scenery.

  • CPU: High-boost 8–12 core
  • GPU: High-end RTX-class for VR headroom
  • RAM: 64GB recommended for heavy multitasking
  • Storage: NVMe + room for large installs
Pro tip: Flight sims are often CPU-limited. If you want smoother performance in busy airports, dense cities, or VR, choose the next tier up for extra headroom.

Flight Simulator PC FAQ

Answers to common rig, resolution, VR, and performance questions.

Why do flight sims need a strong CPU?

Many flight sims can be CPU/main-thread limited, especially in busy airports or dense scenery. Higher CPU boost helps smooth frame pacing and reduces stutters.

Is an ultra-wide monitor worth it?

Yes—ultra-wide can deliver a big immersion upgrade without the complexity of triple displays, while still keeping performance demands reasonable.

Can these PCs run dual/triple monitor flight rigs?

Yes. If you’re planning multiple displays, higher resolutions, or extra apps, choose a higher tier GPU for smoother performance.

What about VR performance?

VR benefits from GPU headroom and stable thermals. For the smoothest experience, choose a VR/Ultra tier build with a stronger GPU and plenty of RAM.

Do you test systems for stability?

Yes—every system is hand-built, thermally tuned, and stress-tested before shipping. See our process on the Burn-In & QA page.

What warranty do I get?

XOTIC PCs include a lifetime parts & labor warranty. Full details are on the Warranty Explained page.
