Can anyone tell me if my graphics card, Intel UHD Graphics's 630 will meet the minimum requirements for MS Simulator 2020?

What would be an equivalent Nvidia or Radeon?

 

Thanks,

I read a news yesterday, 2.6 billion dollars have been spent to upgrade hardware to run new Microsoft Simulator 2020. Intel UHD Graphics's 630 is good but not much for Microsoft Simulator 2020.

 

Please read more info from the following articles

              https://www.game-debate.com/games/index.php?g_id=35975&canMyGpuRunIt=Microsoft%20Flight%20Simulator

 

I would not run Microsoft Simulator 2020 with Intel UHD Graphics 630 alone.

 

Regards.

@Capnbob,

If you have the recommended CPU:

Ryzen 5 1500X / Intel i5-8400, and 16GB motherboard RAM,  GTX 1060 4 GB Video RAM

If you want the better CPU:

Ryzen 7 Pro 2700X / Intel i7-9800X and 32GB motherboard RAM,  8GB Video RAM  RTX 2080

The RTX 2080 is 250W at $950 (10.8" card)   slightly lower is Zotac GTX 1080  is 180W at $859 (8.3") .

A new HP proprietary 500W PSU model L05757-800.  retail $120

Best style MSFS joysticks are running $240-280

 

So to play a $120 program you will spend a total of over $1200 plus the cost of the game.
