Do I buy or not (I have a low spec PC)?

Good morning, I would really like to purchase the new A321neo for MSFS2020; unfortunately I don't have a very high-performance PC at the moment.

However I can use FENIX A320 PMDG737-800, FLYTHEMADDOG well.

Here are the features of my PC:
Device Name DESKTOP-R930DB7
Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-4570 CPU @ 3.20GHz 3.20 GHz
Installed RAM 16.0 GB
Storage 932 GB HDD TOSHIBA DT01ACA100
Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 (4 GB)
Device ID 064D1F06-B45B-4E42-B949-ACAF43B856F5
Product ID 00326-10000-00000-AA645
System Type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
Pen and touch No pen or touch input is available for this display

Do you think I have any hope of trying this model of plane? Is there a way to try it out or just buy it and if it doesn't work, I've wasted €77.00?

Thanks for your help.

Hi Raffaele,

Thanks for your query.

Your video card is going to be your stumbling block, as really is your RAM.  I ran on 16GB RAM for ages and it was possible but performance could have been better.

Please see the minimum requirements as found here.  Please also check out the minimum specs required for MSFS in general.

Thanks for the reply.

I read everything carefully.

However, I wanted to get your opinions. I know flying with the requirements of my PC is difficult, but I manage somehow. I also fly on line IVAO or VATSIM, always

The desire to buy is strong. I'll have to get a new PC too.

Thx

Raffaele

there are several users (including some of the dev team) who really can make the FSLabs work with medium spec´d PCs. 

Initially I had a mobile 5080 (32gb ram), than a desktop 5080 (64gb ram) computer and ultimately I upgraded towards a 5090. it´s only with the latest iteration that I completely enjoy it. But I have to admit that I didn´t want to compromise on the textures and overall visual quality. 

it´s a great aircraft! try to make it work!
