What is DCS?

Flight Sims are highly sophisticated programs that simulate nearly every aspect of flying a plane, right down to the highly detailed, geographically accurate scenery, real world weather, and lifelike physics on anything from a jumbo jet to a biplane. DCS, or Digital Combat Simulator, was released in 2008 but still has a passionate following amongst enthusiasts. DCS is still actively recieving support and content updates regularily.

Ultra-Performance PCs

Because of their need to render detailed and highly complex scenery, flight sims, and specifically DCS, are still some of the most hardware intensive games out there. That's where Velocity Micro comes in. Since 2002, we've built some of the most benchmark-crushing ultra-performance PCs on the market for anything from a single screen set up to a sophisticated multi-monitor custom cockpit, helping pilots like you create the most realistic experience possible.

DCS Spec Requirements

Traditionally Flight Simulators have been more CPU intensive than other games, requiring multiple cores and high frequency to properly render complex scenes. That's why we recommend either Ryzen 9 or Intel Core i9 processors for the best DCS experience. Graphics card is an important spec as well, with RTX 40-series our recommendation with the RTX 4080 optimal for 4K DCS. Per Microsoft, here are the "ideal" specs for running DCS:

AMD NVIDIA
OS Windows 11 Windows 11
CPU Ryzen 9 9900X Intel Ultra 7 265k
GPU Radeon 9070 XT RTX 5080
VRAM 16 GB 16 GB
RAM 64 GB 64 GB
SSD Storage 50 GB 50 GB
Bandwith 100 Mbps 100 Mbps
