Gaming Computer for Microsoft FS X

Just finished a very interesting computer gaming build as part of our custom gaming computer design and build service.

The requirement was for a high spec PC to be able to play the very very demanding Microsoft Flight Sim X at as high a frame rate with as good resolution as possible.


It also had to look good, run quiet and not be monster foot print AND with expansion for the future.

Not an off the shelf solution.

So after a bit of research and some pretty extensive testing and tweaking we decided on an Antec 300 case, 750 watt power supply and a 120 GB SSD

Windows 7 64 Bit stripped down to absolute minimum with 8 GB DDR3 booting from an SSD is so fast that if you are a serious Gamer, you really should consider it.

The graphics is provided by an Nvidia GeForce 560ti. Despite having 8 GB RAM, there are still 2 spare RAM slots and a secondary PCI Expres slot for a second graphics card.

Internals BEFORE Cable Management


Donald, had the pleasure of 'demonstrating' the finished product to the client:

All in all a VERY nice gaming system

The finished product can be purchased via our website and of course we would be happy to discuss any additional features or mods that you would like added to personalise your gaming PC
