If you have an RTX 2070 Super or above but you're not running at least DDR4-3200, you're likely giving up some performance. Memory bandwidth can also play a role, particularly with top-tier components, so you'll want some good DDR4 memory. While we're on the subject of hardware, we also recommend at least 100GB of SSD storage, because load times even from an SSD are lengthy. But to get the most out of Microsoft Flight Simulator, you're going to need a powerful PC - even the best CPUs for gaming can't keep up with maximum quality settings when using the fastest graphics card around (RTX 2080 Ti). The game links to Bing Maps to pull real-time weather and traffic data, and lets you fly anywhere in the world and get what appears to be a realistic representation of what it looks like - bugs notwithstanding, naturally. Microsoft Flight Simulator has a storied history dating back to 1982, and the 2020 release is easily the best looking and most advanced version ever.
