Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 on GeForce GTX 1630

Below minimumEstimate · medium confidence, ±20%

No. The GeForce GTX 1630 is below Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024's minimum spec (Radeon RX 5700). Our model still estimates ~23 fps at 1080p low (range 18–27, medium confidence, ±20%), but cards below the minimum may not be supported. The cheapest current card for 60 fps at 1080p high is the Arc A770 8GB (~61 fps). Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.

This GeForce card has no tensor cores, so DLSS is not available. Use FSR or XeSS in quality mode before dropping the preset.

What limits performance

Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the GeForce GTX 1630 back.
Processor needed for ~23 fps: Core i3-9100F or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
With the recommended CPU (Ryzen 7 2700X): still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~13 fps.
