Flight Simulator 2020 on MacBook pro

Hi,

I'm planning purchasing a refurbed MacBook Pro 2019 i9, 16gb ram, 1tb ssd with 5500 graphics card.

This will be primarily for business.

problem is I’m desperate to play MS flight simulator and wondering if this could handle it well or should I just be buying a separate pc for this (less than ideal due to cost)

is an external graphics card/GPU the best way to go?

also I assume I would need to use boot camp to run - does this drop performance of Mac?

flight sim would be the only game I’d be playing but love it

Find out the requirements of the simulator. Be sure the Mac meets or exceeds those requirements. MBPs are not intended for more than casual gaming. You can also seek an answer at the Microsoft forums for Macs or speak to an MS tech support person.
