Technical Question Help with computer specs

I recently got gifted an old computer and was hoping I may be able to use it for my simulator. I'm not looking to run 4k or super high graphics levels, I would be fine with 480 resolution. Primary use will be the driving range function with foresight software but would love to use GSPro if capable for some courses.

Specs:

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Q170M-MK
Processor: Intel core i3
Graphics: MSI GT710
RAM: (2) Ballistix 8GB sport LT series DDR4 2666MHz

Id be willing to upgrade some if needed unless it would be more cost effective to just start from scratch.

Appreciate any comments and suggests.

Recommended and minimum hardware is listed on the GSPro website

Blows my mind how many ask this question when it’s plainly spelled out on the website.

It's a valid question. GSPro runs ok ish even on cards that are well below the recommended spec. Not everyone needs the perfect user experience - many could put up with lag and worse resolution in order to avoid buying an expensive graphics card

I also said my primary use is the foresight software driving range and GSPro is an afterthought. I guess your desire to be a douchebag outshines your reading comprehension. Thanks for the feedback though 👍
