Flight Simulator 2020: These are the system requirements

After many, many years, Microsoft is finally releasing a new edition of an absolute classic. This one looks great, but what does that mean for Flight Simulator's system requirements?

Bigger than ever, Flight Simulator 2020 impresses with graphics and detail.

The history of Microsoft's Flight Simulator dates back to 1982. The last part to date appeared in 2006 - so the new edition of 2020 is a big leap.

Flight Simulator 2020: Systemanforderungen in drei Stufen

Die minimalen Voraussetzungen sind:

• CPU: Intel Core i5-4460 / AMD Ryzen 3 1300X
• Grafikkarte: GeForce GTX 770 / AMD Radeon RX 570
• Arbeitsspeicher: 8 GB RAM
• Bandbreite: 5 Mbit/s

Empfohlen werden folgende Teile:

• CPU: Intel Core i5-8400 / AMD Ryzen 5 1500X
• Grafikkarte: GeForce GTX 970 / AMD Radeon RX 590
• Arbeitsspeicher: 16 GB RAM
• Bandbreite: 20 Mbit/s

Dann die ideale Konfiguration:

• CPU: Intel Core i7-9800X / AMD Ryzen 7 2700X
• Grafikkarte: GeForce RTX 2080 / AMD Radeon VII
• Arbeitsspeicher: 32 GB RAM
• Bandbreite: 50 Mbit/s

In allen Fällen belegt das Spiel satte 150 GB auf der Festplatte – dies sollte also eingeplant werden. Interessant ist außerdem die Angabe der Internetgeschwindigkeit. This is because Flight Simulator simulates so much data that it is constantly pulled from the cloud. A high bandwidth thus makes itself felt even for pure solo players.
