Flight sim 2020

Question

Hi all. I'm new to this community. I am looking at buying the 2020 flight sim but wondering a few things :

I have a laptop, can I  download to use the Flight sim?

I also have a smart TV LG OLED, can I play the program through the TV? The OLED picture quality is stunning, I think to marry the Flight Sim with it would be perfect. If not possible could I cast from the laptop? 

Either way, what would the resolution  be? The tv is capable of 4k.

Anybody any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Hi ,JoeMurphy7

my name is Dennis, I'm an independent advisor and I'll do my best to help today.

for the game

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 System Requirements (Minimum)

CPU: Intel Core i5-3570 or AMD FX-8370 or better

RAM: 8 GB

OS: Windows 10 64-bit

VIDEO CARD: Radeon R9 380 or GeForce GTX 960 or better

PIXEL SHADER: 5.1

VERTEX SHADER: 5.1

DEDICATED VIDEO RAM: 2048 MB

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 Recommended Requirements

CPU: Intel Core i7-7700K or AMD Ryzen 7 1700 or better

RAM: 12 GB

OS: Windows 10 64-bit

VIDEO CARD: Radeon RX 470 or GeForce GTX 1070 or better

PIXEL SHADER: 5.1

VERTEX SHADER: 5.1

DEDICATED VIDEO RAM: 4096 MB

If your laptop meets the minimum requirements you can download the game without problem, for this type of game a 4k screen would look fantastic but the game is somewhat heavy and the performance would not be optimal and can be seen with low fps.

the game will go to the maximum resolution that your laptop supports.

Hope this help you.

Regards,

Dennis.
