RaceRoom Racing Experience: PC requirements and the PC you need

About RaceRoom Racing Experience

RaceRoom Racing Experience is a free racing simulation from KW Studios, built around realistic handling and steering wheel support. You can race touring cars and many other classes on real circuits, including the famous Nordschleife, alone against the computer or online against other drivers. The base game costs nothing, and extra cars and tracks are bought as in-game purchases. It is rated PEGI 3. It starts on very modest hardware, while the makers suggest a card with 8 GB of video memory and 16 GB of memory for the best results.

What RaceRoom Racing Experience needs

In plain words: to play at all it needs almost any graphics, even the graphics built into the processor, and to play it well the makers suggest almost any graphics, even the graphics built into the processor, with 16GB of memory.

A low-spec PC or a high-spec PC?

This is a light game: almost any of our gaming PCs will run it comfortably at high settings.

On a PC that only just meets the minimum, the game will start and play, but on low settings: simpler shadows and textures, shorter view distances and fewer frames each second, so fast moments can feel less smooth. A 1080p screen is the sensible match.

On a PC that meets or beats the recommended spec, you can turn the settings up: sharper textures, proper shadows and lighting, more detail in the distance, and a smoother picture. A stronger PC also lets you use a sharper 1440p or high-refresh screen.

Questions about RaceRoom Racing Experience on PC

How we match: we compare the graphics card and the memory in each PC with the makers' spec, because those decide most of how a game runs. For very new or demanding games, ask us and we will check the processor too. More help: graphics cards explained, how much RAM, which screen.
