Article has the 8 settings that affect performance most with explanations. https://www.tomshardware.com/features/microsoft-flight-simulator-benchmarks-performance-system-requirements bs You definately need some beefy hardware to run it at Ultra but I'm runnning it on medium on a £700 laptop with an acceptable frame rate. 🙂 My Specs: Lenovo Ideapad 330 Intel Core i7-8750H @ 2.21GHz 20GB of ram (most the laptop wil take) Nvidia GTX 1050 (4GB) Get's pretty hot after a couple hour flight up the US West Coast. About to purchase a laptop cooling mat to try and help that. 🙂 Edited August 24, 20205 yr by Matt Barraud Flying since the early days of 386’s! 😀 Web developer, sailor, nerd.

Inside, the PC chassis glass is etched on both sides with MSFS2020... Kinda wish that was an option to buy even on their site in some form but looks like it needs to be custom ordrered. Still fantastic looking case at least. The hardware of course is top notch.

So we've gone from trying to compare completely unrelated free titles that top the Steam usage charts daily to comparing AAA titles that are even more unrelated. I'm not even sure of your point, flight simulation is a niche genre, it's never going to achieve those types of figures.
