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

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

If you want the better CPU:
