    Hey guys,

    what are your system specs for running project cars? I am really excited to play this game in a few hours but i wonder if my current GPU and CPU is able to handle this.

    Is it really necessary to get a 970 or 980GTX to run that game with best possible visual settings in Full HD?

    Btw. its horrible feeling to know i already got, downloaded and ready to play on my HDD but not beeing able to activate it, yet: http://take.ms/aLPt8

    @RaceRay - I run a GTX 750Ti in my PC and Project Cars runs a dream on it at 1080p.

    My PC is nothing special, I7-4770 3.4GHz with 16GB Ram. Windows 8.1 64bit.
    Z87M GB Motherboard.
    It's basically a "business" PC that I threw a 750Ti in.
    Not a gaming rig by any stretch.

    I did install it on my SSD though so that there is no bottleneck with writing / reading from disk.

    I've not bought the Steam version yet. (I have a *cough* "other copy")

    At US$69.99 that equates to about AU$95. :eek:

    I will get a Steam Key from thebluedroid.com which is about AU$53.

    Thanks guys. My GTX660 runs it fine at 1080, so no need to invest in better hardware:)

    It's the other way around actually..

    Guys, I have a -50% coupon for Steam version that I am willing to share.

    Poke me on the Steam if someone is interested.

    @RaceRay - "Aussie Tax" :) We get slugged even for "Digital-no-need-to-be-shipped" products.

    The price for living in paradise I guess... :p
