November 25, 20205 yr I'm not quite in the same position as the OP. My specs are: i5 6600, 16 GB RAM, GTX 1060 6GB - so somewhere between minimum and recommended - but I was nevertheless surprised that "high" settings were recommended when I first installed MSFS 2020, based on an analysis of my system. I can only assume this was because my monitor is fairly modest (1680 x 1050)? In fact the sim is perfectly usable on high settings - though admittedly I always fly in the slowest aeroplane that's available. (I'd fly in a hot air balloon if that was an option. Sadly it isn't.) But I do get a lot of annoying stutters which seem to get worse the longer I fly. However the stutter situation is not improved by changing to "medium" or "low" so I feel I may as well stay on "high". Like a lot of people I'm eagerly awaiting VR support, having run VR very successfully with Aerofly. I'm fairly sure VR on MSFS will defeat my system but that won't stop me trying it out before I upgrade my computer.
