PC Build

Hi Guys, I am in the process of getting a new PC built for sim racing, would anyone be able to advise on a suitable spec for running ACC with triples, any help would be great

 

Depends on the budget. Generally ACC runs best on ryzen 5800x3d or 7800x3d cpu. If you can afford also rtx 4090 - it will be great for 1440p triples running 140-150+ fps with epic/high settings.

And for monitors - DO NOT fall into Samsung (g7) trap.

 

Cheers for the response, ive been talking to a computer shop and this is what they have recommended for me, what do you think? 2K euros

 

Not sure if rtx 4070 will be enough.
What display resolutions your monitors will be?

 

7800x3d +4080TI+fastest RAM the MoBO controller can stomach and lets fetz
for ****s, giggles & extra fanciness plonk a Noctua CPU cooler on it or give it even more cooling via AIO CPU cooler .
I´ve basically done the same, just on the Intel side of things : Asus Prime Z790-P Mobo, Kingston Fury Renegade DDR5-7200, Intel i7-13700K .
Runs fast out of the box, albeit a bit hot, so after some electrical reigning-in the CPU is doing with normal, unmodified clocks 16 °C less in Cinebench while needing 0,225 Volts less than before and performs like you see below .
I highly suspect you can easily do the same with an AMD CPU, and since they draw less power than Intel they might be running cooler and having more headroom for OC and/or more headroom for Undervolting .
TempLimit for my CPU is setup per UEFI to 85°C, then it starts throttling down.

 

The Mushkin DDR4 2x32GB 3600MHz is not on the compatibility list for the Asus ROG Strix B550-A Gaming.
It can work, but it is not sure it will be stable at @3600 and ACC is very RAM sensitive regards to compatibility and for speed.
The higher your RAM speed can be, the better ACC will perform (avg. fps and 1%low).

If you want to have 64GB of RAM for other purpose than ACC you have 7 kits 2x32GB @3600MHz from which you can choose and be safe, they will perform stable and reliable.
If you do not need 64GB (Video editing, Photoshop, CAD, home server, etc.) and go with 32GB (2x16GB or 4x8GB) there are at least 9 kits with speeds above 4000MHz up to 4666MHz which are listed as compatible and tested to run at this speeds with that Asus MB.

And for triple screen, if you're going 3x1080p then a 4070 may be enough with slightly reduced settings, better a 4070Ti. But personally I'd suggest, if you can afford it, at least a 4080 and you can even go with 3x1440p.

 

cheers for the information guys
