I just built a new system for DCS.  Runs in a room that gets warm in the summer, so power draw drove lots of decisions.
AMD 5600x   65W TDP  (CPU boost ON, so up to 4.4GHz as needed)
3070 FTW     220W TDP max, undervolting now by 120mV (lost 3 fps)
B550 Tomahawk
EVGA 750W Platinum, Eco (not using Eco/fan off at low draw, mode)
M.2 Samsung
2x16GB 3200 RAM CL16
Auss AIO Strix II 240mm
(already had Asus P278  27" monitor, 2560x1444 60hz)
Corsair 4000d AIRFLOW case (love this case) - added 3rd case fan (2 front, 1 rear)
----------
Single player mission, 4000' over Caucus city, F-16 , nothing else on map
    117fps w/undervolt, 56C GPU, 45C CPU   medium speed on fans

 

Edited by ACME_WIdgets
clarified fps at "high" settings

5600x, EVGA 3070 FTW, B550 Tomahawk, M.2 Samsung, 32GB CL16, AIO 240mm
VKB Gladiator Pro, Freetracker IR 3d printed, TM MkII HOTAS circa 1985 w/USB
Asus 27" 2560x1440 60fps (so constrain DCS to 60fps)    F-16, F-18
       2021 = First year on DCS:
