Last week, I finished my build with a Ryzen 5600G, 16GB 3200 RAM, Samsung SSD, and MSI B550-A Pro motherboard (no GPU card) to use with Flight Simulators. I first tried X-Plane 12 and it would not install and displayed a message stating my PC was not powerful enough to run the product and X-Plane support verified that when I called them. SO, next I tried MS Flight Simulator 2020 even though I had heard on YouTube that it required more resources than X-Plane 12. It installed fine and when I start it, I get a warning that my PC is under configured but it does go ahead and run. It actually runs great with no lag or chops. I am probably running the least resource intensive plane (Cessna 152) normally and I have MSFS 202 configured for low-end. But the I am very happy with the scenery and I have even right the F-18 Maverick challenges and they run great too. Has anything got any info on a way to run X-Plane with a build similar to mine? Have you had a similar experience with MSFS 2020? And for MSFS 2020 with a similar build to mine, have made tweaks that made it look even better than low-end config and are still happy with the results? If so, what tweaks did you make? Happy New Year everyone.
