What is the better hardware in this list to XPlane11

Question

Hi,

I´m looking for new PC and I would like to know what hardware is better to XPlane11 in this list below:

1) Ryzen 5 2600, 8GB Ram, SSD 240GB and video card RX570 8GB

2) I3 8100, 8GB ram, SSD 240GB and video card GTX1060 3GB

3) I5 7400, 8GB Ram, SSD 240GB and video card GTX1060 6GB.

Answer 1

Ryzen 2600 and 1060. Xplane developers didn't optimize the game for AMD so it doesn't work with AMD graphics cards well.

Answer 2

Hi CleversonFukuoka,

I am not with Laminar Research; just a flight simmer.

There are comments throughout this forum whereby AMD products (Option 1) do not perform as well as NVidia and Intel products (Options 2 and 3).

As X-Plane is resource hungry I am of the opinion that Option 3 is the better arrangement.

Before you make a final decision make time available to view Youtube videos from Michael brown referenced in the following link to an answer provided by me earlier today.  The link can be found at https://questions.x-plane.com/21170/will-this-run-x-plane

Good luck
