| Post subject: | Putting a PC together for R-Factor |
My little brother is racing this year and I've been asked to put together a PC that will run R-Factor (and possibly R-Factor 2) on his 1080p TV using his proper steering wheel, pedal, gear stick set up. I need to check with him what the steering wheel stuff is (what model) but I'm 100% certain that it will work. I've sort of lost touch with parts though and whats good. I was looking for a decent gaming CPU (I'm guessing a core i5 or i7) and a graphics card with 1GB of memory plus 4GB of RAM or 6 or something. Not sure what the optimal set up is. Could someone help point me in the right direction please? It will need to run it at full settings and smoothly on his TV. So I prob need HDMI output from a graphics card (if that's possible?). |

RF1 is a pretty old game and the requirements don't look too high. You could probably put something together cheaply from second hand parts that would play it very well: http://gamesystemrequirements.com/games.php?id=245 |

What's the budget? Any other games that will potentially be played? |

No budget really. My parents just want to know how much it would cost. Just after the cheapest setup that will play it well. No other games required for it. It will probably only be used for R-Factor. |

Sas, that PC was awesome! £420 for the PC and Windows 7 64bit Home Premium. Came with download codes for... FarCry 3 FarCry 3 Blood Dragon Tomb Raider (the latest one) Bioshock Inifinite and Sim City! That\s fricking awesome! Thanks for the suggestion. |
