Alright Great Job its not to hard on the old computers!
3.0 Ghz Dual Core thats recommended now I can convince the wife to let me upgrade a little to run rF2!!
 
With the minimum you'll certainly be viewing bare minimum, be warned. :)

The 64bit mention is because the software will use as much RAM as you can. 32bit can only use about 3.5GB or so.
 
Even with my old PC I can easily meet recommended specs: can't wait to see the game in action!
 
4890 Just Squeeked by...

Also Tim, Are more then two cores better then just faster cores? ie (2core3.2ghz)Vs(4core3.0ghz)
 
I built a computer back in January almost exclusively rFactor 2. I think I overshot a little. :)

Intel 2600K
Nvidia GTX 460
8GB of RAM
 
Also Tim, Are more then two cores better then just faster cores? ie (2core3.2ghz)Vs(4core3.0ghz)
Pretty sure it will be optimised to use as much cores as possible. As 4 cores are almost the standard now I'll bet some good money that 4 cores at 3 GHz will be faster than 2 cores at 3.2 GHz.
 
I only exceed minimum requirements barely (2.67 Ghz Core 2, 2GB-ram, 8800 GTS 312mb.
Assuming requirements get harder every year (like rF1 did)...I think I'll upgrade my pc.

When rFactor1 came out, the above pc could easily handle it, but right now, with Game Stock Car pushing the limits of rF1, it also hurts my pc on max settings.

64bit great!!

so I can say that the RF2 will have two versions 32bit and 64bit? if so this is really so good movement ISI!

Note: 2008 C++ Runtimes SP1 required (included with installer).

uu nice words Installer!

I hope recommended spec will work fine with full grid even with rainy weather ;)

Exactly, so here we go, what's needed to run an online race with 50 insanely high poly cars on a raining night on a busy track at maximum graphic details, rocksolid 60fps, without a single frame drop neither at the start, and possibly zero lag and no disconnections?
 
RECOMMENDED:

CPU: 3.0 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo or 3.0 GHz AMD Athlon II x2 or better
Memory: 4 GB+
Video Card: nVidia 250 GTS or ATI/AMD 4870 or better
Video Memory: 512MB+
Operating System: Microsoft Windows Vista 64bit, Windows 7 64bit
Storage: 4 GB+

Note: 2008 C++ Runtimes SP1 required (included with installer).

OK, recommended....but what are the system specs to use rF2 with highest grafik settings?
 
As usual,the more the better ;) I think nobody can predict how a 40 cars high poly under rain would affect the game....Simply because we doesn't have any high-poly mod at the moment ;)
Just a question: 4and 8 core will affect more the game than an improved graphic card or is it better to have one of the latest beasts on a "simple" core i7?
