This Microsoft Flight Simulator PC Is Shaped Like A Jet Turbine, Is Up For Grabs

At least you won't have to worry about it overheating.

Microsoft Flight Simulator is a stunning game to see in action, and as you'd expect from a game that features entire nation's worth of high-resolution assets, it requires cutting edge hardware to be experienced at its visual best. If you haven't got such a PC, the good news is that Microsoft and Xbox France are hosting a giveaway for one that can easily run the game.

And it just so happens to look like an airplane turbine.

Now Playing: Microsoft Flight Simulator - United Kingdom & Ireland World Update

To celebrate World Update 4--which shines a light on several revamped European locations--all you have to do to enter is follow the Xbox France account on Twitter and comment with the #MicrosoftFlightSimulator hashtag.

The lucky winner will receive a machine that is equipped with a Gigabyte Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070, a Core i7 11700K processor, and a Z590 Aorus Elite AX motherboard.

All of this is crammed into the signature turbine of a jet engine, which comes equipped with the mother of all cooling fans. It probably doesn't work though, unless you're in a mood to hotwire it and lose a few fingers during an intense landing at Charles de Gaulle Airport. It's worth noting that the image shown is for a 3D render of what the prize could look like, with the final result possibly having a few slight differences when it's finished.

The competition doesn't mention if the giveaway is exclusive to France, but it likely is given the size of the prize which is designed to promote Xbox in France according to Xbox games marketing boss Aaron Greenberg.

Whoever does win the one-of-a-kind gaming PC.will likely require an aircraft hangar's worth of space to properly house it.
