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.
Flight Simulator PCs
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.
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.
Best for: single monitor or ultra-wide, balanced settings.
Best for: dual/triple displays, higher terrain/cloud detail.
Best for: VR headsets, highest settings, heavy scenery.
Answers to common rig, resolution, VR, and performance questions.
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.
Yes—ultra-wide can deliver a big immersion upgrade without the complexity of triple displays, while still keeping performance demands reasonable.
Yes. If you’re planning multiple displays, higher resolutions, or extra apps, choose a higher tier GPU for smoother 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.
Yes—every system is hand-built, thermally tuned, and stress-tested before shipping. See our process on the Burn-In & QA page.
