Wow! I am really impressed especially with your computer's specifications. I have been a private pilot, aircraft owner, and have lived on an airport for over 30 years. I have owned and used pretty much every Microsoft Flight Simulator including subLOGIC’s FS1 Flight Simulator, released in 1979 for the Apple II. Created by Bruce Artwick. And of course, I have enjoyed using many other flight simulators as well over the years.
One time I flew a couple of my friends up to the Glasair facility shortly after they released the Glastar so that the one guy who like you claimed to be a private pilot could take it for a test flight. On the way up to the facility his unrelenting ignorant conversation made an impression on myself and my other passenger.
After he got out of the plane and introduced himself to the Glasair pilot/salesperson my other friend asked me if we should warn the guy that he was most likely not a private pilot. I responded that no this would not be necessary. I did talk to the Glasair pilot afterwards and ended up apologizing to him for letting my friend waste his time. He was very gracious and said no, that 90% of the people who claimed to be private pilots to him hadn't even soloed let alone gotten their ticket. He said that he was hopeful that since our friend had arrived in an airplane that this was not going to be the case this time, but realized within a minute or two that it was the same old routine.

A year or so ago I was going to get the 4090 when the price would come down with the new 5000’s coming out.
LOL! The price went up. Just got my 5080 last month as prices had eased back some.
I am 79. My piloting days are past.
I did treat myself to a ride in a Mustang last year.
