Hi, Recently installed Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 on link below of my PCs specification

https://support.hp.com/ca-en/document/c02700752

unfortunately, the current specifications do not meet and game requires more powerful graphics card, minimum requirement to play FS 2020 is Graphic card with 4GB, i am not sure which latest graphic card will meet the requirement of FS 2020 and will be a perfect fit for my pc without changing the other hardware components, please let me know which Graphic card will be ideal for my pc specifications Thanks.

Your machine could be 10 years old by now. Its hardware can't run SIM 2020. I can't find its new BIOS because without new BIOS you can't install newer video card.

 

Regards.

Thanks for getting back to me is there any other solution you have in mind ?

I dont want to throw my pc in Garbage if upgrading a specific BIOS can get the results i am ready to install

@Raheel81,

There is no BIOS upgrade path once your system migrated past the original installed OS.

Processor socket and RAM capacities do not meet the minimum for FS2020.

Here is your circa 2011 computer.
