Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 is as demanding as any other game in the market, and there is no reason for you to believe otherwise. Just think about it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. The game recreates mega-realistic scenery<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Emulates real-time weather conditions and traffic systems<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Has revolutionary uncannily realistic graphics<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Fetches digitally distilled images from a cloud server<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    So, if you are intending to fly across the Globe in MS2020, you will have to beef up your PC (unless you have one of those $4000 monsters). The ideal solution to this problem is to buy one of the best pre-built PCs for Microsoft Flight Simulator<\/a> \ud83d\ude02\ud83d\ude02\ud83d\ude02 (Sarcasm intended!) . If that\u2019s too rich for your blood, you will have to contend with upgrading the essential components of your PC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    And when we are talking about \u201cessential PC components\u201d, Graphic Card<\/strong> is right up there with the CPU. The Graphics card is responsible for feeding data to the display screen. To better grasp this concept, we need to understand that the screen is made up of Pixels. We can manipulate these pixels to cast distinctive images to the display screen. As computers can only understand binary language, hundreds of thousands of computations are needed to display 3-D graphics. Every computer has an integrated GPU to perform these tasks, but built-in GPUs (often) can\u2019t sustain the workload of fast-paced games (let alone a revolutionary flight simulator). In order to facilitate optimal performance and vivid imagery, we need a Video Card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Note:<\/strong> A GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) is a component in Graphics Card that is responsible for the processing. In this article, though, we won\u2019t be differentiating between the two and will use them interchangeably.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 is a card burner<\/strong>. Even Nvidia RTX 2080 TI wasn\u2019t able to crack the 60-fps barrier on Ultra settings<\/strong>. To be honest, it didn\u2019t even come close, maxing out at 40. Don\u2019t get me wrong! With that statement, I don\u2019t intend to insinuate that we can\u2019t break the 60-fps barrier. With better cards available in the market, we are able to get better performances. The sole purpose of the statement was to emphasize how demanding Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 actually is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If Nvidia RTX 2080 TI doesn\u2019t do, what will?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Well, the gist of this article is to address this very question. There are hundreds of graphic cards in the market, but Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 overwhelms most of them. Yet your choices aren\u2019t limited and the process of scouring the internet for details is exhausting and irksome. By mentioning the best GPUs for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020<\/strong>, we intend to simplify the process as much as possible. But before we do so, I would like to reignite an ever-lasting debate (Can\u2019t help it, bro \ud83d\ude14\ud83d\ude14\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
