Laminar goes on with some GPU specific requirements laying out a minimum generation that you need to have to make things work as intended. The Core i5 and Ryare both a couple of years old now and the GTX 1070 is also several years old now and is bested by a couple of generations of newer cards (if you can find them in stock or at a reasonable price – ha!).

The good news is that none of these are exceptionally recent releases. I look no further than DCS World for example where 16GB is now often regarded as a minimum for multiplayer enjoyment with 32GB recommended. Meanwhile, the RAM requirements and GPU requirements are unsurprising and, for the most part, achievable as many of us running flight sims know that 6GB and more on the VRAM front and 16GB and more are often the minimum needed to make things work well. The incremental nature of CPU performance increases also means that you’ll likely be fine if you had, say, a Core i5 7600k while meeting or exceeding the other specifications. This gives us a good picture on what kind of power you’ll need to bring to bear on X-Plane 12. Video Card: a DirectX 12-capable video card from NVIDIA or AMD with at least 4 GB VRAM (GeForce GTX 1070 or better or similar from AMD).CPU: Intel Core i5 8600k or Ryor better.Now we talk about what Laminar Research feels is a good experience with more recommended hardware and here things get more specific. Good news of course for the reasons above because it enables everyone to try before you buy. And this is notable too because its the first time, that I’m aware of anyways, that a demo has been confirmed for X-Plane 12. They encourage that people try the X-Plane 12 demo before purchasing if performance concerns on your system are present suggesting that performance will be the same. Laminar, however, cautions that this is a borderline configuration for minimum performance. These are fairly basic and they differ little from the X-Plane 11 requirements changing in two key areas with a requirement for 4 or more cores (11 requires just 2) and 2 GB of VRAM (11 requires just 1 GB). Video Card: a DirectX 11-capable video card from NVIDIA, AMD or Intel with at least 2 GB VRAM.

CPU: Intel Core i3, i5, i7, or i9 CPU with 4 or more cores, or AMD Ryzen 3, 5, 7 or 9.

Minimum requirementsįirst, we have the minimum requirements that have been published. Of course the jury is still out on that and we won’t fully have a good sense of that until we’re all testing it out on our myriad of different configurations.ĭespite all that, minimum and recommended system requirements give us a sense of what we’ll need to power this. One of the concerns I’ve seen expressed by many watching the demo videos that we’ve seen so far of X-Plane 12 is that the system requirements are going to go up and our old systems are not going to be able to run it smoothly. If you’re into flight sims, you know that this is a hobby that commonly demands powerful systems to run them. Let’s have a look! Minimum and recommended requirements News that will interest just about every simmer looking at upgrading to the new platform.

The trickle of news from Laminar Research on X-Plane 12 continues and this time its news of the system requirements for X-Plane 12.
