MSFS — Head to Head
ASUS ROG Strix GT35 Gaming Desktop – Intel Core Ultra 9 285K vs iBUYPOWER Pro Gaming PC Computer Desktop SlateMR 267i – Intel Core i7-14700F
Comparing performance for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 · Scoring: 45% CPU / 40% GPU weighted
ASUS ROG GT35 (Core Ultra 9, RTX 4090, 64GB) vs iBUYPOWER SlateMR 267i (i7-14700F, RTX 4070, 16GB) for MSFS: 21-point gap, no contest.
The ASUS ROG Strix GT35 scores 93.6/100 against the iBUYPOWER SlateMR 267i's 72.4/100 — a 21.2-point gap that translates to a fundamentally different tier of MSFS experience across CPU-heavy AI traffic loads and GPU-bound rendering alike. The GT35's Core Ultra 9 285K and RTX 4090 handle VR city flyovers over photogrammetry-heavy zones like Manhattan or central London with stable frame times that the 4070 and i7-14700F simply cannot sustain at equivalent settings. The SlateMR 267i holds its own on lower-stakes VFR cross-country legs at medium settings where the 4070's 12GB VRAM is sufficient and the 16GB DDR4 isn't yet a bottleneck.
