Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 made me realize that my PC is not ready for next gen

 I have a GTX 970 and an i5 650, and up til now I have been able to play any game. I installed MS Flight Sim 2020 on my PC and quickly realized how outdated all my hardware is, I was so demoralized and right now I'm trying to piece to get another build but i'm watching YouTube and I noticed a lot of people are having performance issues, even with way better hardware. I hoping they update the game but I doubt it would get much better, the game seems very cpu dependent. Might be time to switch over to AMD.
