The only bit I'm not sure about is Windows 10? Did you buy a PC in 2021 that came with Windows 10? I'm not sure if MSFS will run on that OS because it's designed for Windows 11 but hopefully someone else will chime in.

Yes, similar system here and it runs nicely and my PC is not even capable of running Windows 11. Jack Sawyer

Avsim has a HUGE AutoFPS thread also...) Edited December 30, 2025Dec 30 by MaGer1965 'It is better to be silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.'

Should that be i7 8700k?
