Will my system handle RNR?

[1Truck]

OK so the game runs kinda choppy and somewhat slow on my PC. It meets the minimum requirements. Do you think that 1GB of ram more would help the game to run smoothly?

As said by USA_Trucker multiple times, 4GB of RAM is recommended to run the game smoothly. 1GB is just way too little. I can't comment on the rest of your specs as I don't know how heavy the game is on the CPU, but it definitely needs a whole lot more RAM than what you have.

[1Truck]

Thanks I think I'll try another ram stick. What's strange is that some people with much better computers are reporting bad perfromance...and yet the lower end PCs can run the game better. Strange.

I don't see why not except for the 1.80GHz. I think it's too low, and would I would go to at least 4GB. I have heard of many problems with less then that. Don't believe what RnR, or 1c says that it will run good on 1, or 2 GB's of Ram. I have personally seen the difference. Also get the best graphics card you can afford.

This is another fact that RnR, or 1c incorrectly states.

Do you have any recommendations on graphic cards? And I just completely restored my computer 2 days ago, so I dont know what to do on the RAM... Ill take any advice I can get.

I can only tell you what I, and my brother have. It's a GeForce 9500 GT with 1GB Adapter, or more. It works great. I would also increase the Ram to 4GB+, if you can. Ram is an integral part of any game. The more, the better if you can afford to do so. Also go with the DDR, or DDR-2 Ram, and not the old high heat antique version. This is just my advise. Other people may differ. As games are getting more, and more memory hogs, I have 8GB of Ram. This should set me up for at least the next 2-3 years.

[russian brute]

So a GeForce 9500GT and a 2 GB Memory Module would get me goin good, correct?

As I stated above. I recommend a 4GB, or more Ram.

[russian brute]

As I stated above. I recommend a 4GB, or more Ram.

I already have two, and if I get a 2GB Addition it will make me 4GB...
Also I'm pretty sure 64Bit Vista won't handle more than 4GB. So that would be my max.

[USA Trucker]

I already have two, and if I get a 2GB Addition it will make me 4GB...

Of course. 2 plus 2 equals 4. Doesn't it? ;)

[russian brute]

Of course. 2 plus 2 equals 4. Doesn't it? ;)

Haha yeah, I'm gettin a little dead headed anyway. ;)

No problem. I get that way too sometimes. :)

[kennyb87]

A 32 bit operating system will recognise between 3 and 4 gig of ram a 64 bit system up to 8 gig of ram. Check how much you can put into your system go to the crucial website and do a scan is an easy way to check things out. My old motherboard can only handle 2Gb of ram max but I have saw another motherboard and CPU failry cheap so I'm just going to build another computer as my current one is becoming too slow to play games at decent framerates. Hope this helps

[Cabover]

I'd don't think the processor is enough because when i installed RnR it said my processor wasn't running to there minimal settings which is a AMD phenom quad core 9500 2.20ghz So yea im kinda bummed because i wasted a money on a new HP that cant run rnr :mad:

ps:kennyb87 thanks 4 the website it helped me so, but do they have a website that can tell what processor i can upgrade too?

[kennyb87]

To see what CPU you can upgrade to you need to check the manufacturers website for that. Try CPUZ that should list your system specs then go to the relevant website. I'm looking at a new CPU and mobo an AMD triple core 3.0Ghz but it can be unlocked to run 4 cores and its only £60 and the mobo an ASUS M3N78-VM is £52. I may need another case too but thats no problem to get hold of. Just going to re-use my current ram PSU and Graphics card and I should have a decent PC

I think no, your video card is too weak for R'n'R.

Also, your Processor speed is too slow. You might get it to run, but very poorly. See game requirements HERE. (http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showpost.php?p=174309&postcount=1) Please don't make duplicate threads on topics already covered. I moved your post to here.

[kansas_dude82]

I want to play RnR but I don't have the money to replace this laptop

[USA Trucker]

I'm sorry for that. However, before you purchase any game, you should read the recommended specs for the game, not the minimal specs. Many people fall for this. This game (and many others) just doesn't cut the minimal specs, as you can see from the many postings of problem with people running less then the Rec. Specs. I learned this many years ago after spending money on games that would not work on my computer. It only took me 3 games or so to figure it out after educating myself to never falling for it again.

[kansas_dude82]

I downloaded a 1 hour trial version that I found online of this game (I guess some companies make games as a trial) and before the game started it showed a window saying that my computer meets the minimum requirements

I am not aware of any 1 hour trial version offered or authorized by 1C for Rig ‘n’ Roll. I’m telling you that your system can’t handle the game without a multitude of problems. Your CPU Speed is way off the mark. If you want to buy it, after your trial, that’s your business, and your money. However, don’t complain afterwards that it doesn’t work.;)

[kansas_dude82]

It may not be authorized by 1C but there has been other games (without a trial, just full game) that some companies have made to a trial game (kind of like a demo of the full game but limit to 1 hour)..and it is the game

[USA Trucker]

Trial games regardless of where you get them are illegal unless authorized by the publishers of the games in question. Maybe we can resolve this issue if you told me the name of site you got your trial version from, and I’ll find out if 1C authorized it as a re-seller of Rig ‘n’ Rol. If not, then it’s illegal, and may result in copyright violations.

That being said, let’s get back on topic. Feel free to PM me for further discussions on this matter.;)

[xmathewx75]

Hey, I bought rig n roll about 4-3 months ago from steam. I didn't have a good computer for it, so I kinda wasted my 30 dollars. So, I'm getting a new computer soon cause my old desktop crashed and wont start now. Hoping to get it repaired soon. Anyways please tell me if this computer is good so I can buy it before the sale price is over :/

Hello, and welcome to the forum.

Judging from what I see, you should have no problem. Just make sure your CPU speed is 3.0GHz., or above. Inspite of what the specs are listed for this game, it is a very heavy CPU hog, and not fully optimizesd with many memory leaks. 1C failed in this aspect of reporting system specs. They are way off the mark.

[Truckerguy82]

So USA Trucker my question is my dad is giveing me his computer and its a dual core 3.2 GHz and i think he said he over clocked it but not sure how he did it i think he downloaded something but anyways it has 8gig of memory installed will have a 1tb hard drive and will have a Nivda 9800GT 1gig will this computer be able to run it? btw it has windows Vista

Hello, and welcome to the forum.

It should. The olny thing I might question is Windows Vista, only because when I had it, it ran a little sluggish for this game. Windows 7 improved the game performance for me. Other than that, I see no problem.:cool:

[Truckerguy82]

ok well thanks Usa trucker ya vista is getting me to wonder as well but hopefully soon ill get windows 7 :-P

[USA Trucker]

Depending on what you use your computer for will determine what Windows7 version would best suit you. You don’t have to get the most expensive one. Windows Home Premium 64Bit should work just fine. I have Windows7 Ultimate 64Bit, because I work for a living on mine, and I have several programs running at the same time. This version could be costly if you don’t really need it.;)

[Truckerguy82]

ya im gonna be useing this computer more for gameing like FSX and Rig N Roll but i found a family pack windows 7 that inclues the 32 and 64 bit cds and its only like 130 something so i didt think it was to bad

[USA Trucker]

Be careful about those so called “family packs”. Let me know exactly which Windows it is. I would hate to see you waiste money on something you expected to get, and didn’t.;)

All things being equal, it should. 2.7GHz may or may not have some issues, as the game works best with 3.0GHz the Recommended Requirements, but I think you’ll be alright.

Hey USA Trucker, I'm back. I want let you know that I got a my own custom built PC by myself. It will handle most game like RnR. Mine has Intel i7 Extreme Edition 990X 6 cores (speed at 3.47 GHz) with unlocked muilt up to 4.0 GHz or more. And has huge ram is 6 GB DDR3 at 1.33 GHz and best video card, HIS Radeon 6850 ICE Q Turbo 1 GB DDR at 820 MHz with 4.4 GHz onboard memeroy and run on new Windows 7 Pro 64 bit OS with SP1 on 500 GB Seagate HD at 7,200 rpm. I did took off from this fourm for few months because no news about update or new patches. Soon I will try again with RnR soon. I still have RnR on DVD disc. And, have a nice day!

[USA Trucker]

Glad to hear it. Enjoy the game.:cool:

Hi guys, i wonder why my computer loading for RNR takes a very long time, around 4 minutes, just to enter into story mode? The quick load in the story mode also takes around the same time...But the gameplay runs perfectly well.

THe specification seems better than the minimum requirements. Here;s my computer:
AMD Athlon TM II P360, Dual Core, 2,3 G
RAM 4 GB
Video CArd: 256 ATI Radeon

any solution?

Is the 2,3 G suppose to be 2.3GHz?

[meth]

Is the 2,3 G suppose to be 2.3GHz?

Yes, sure 2.3 GHz. THe loading and the quick load make me sick. Sometimes it takes 5 minutes long. Please help.

Then this is the reason for your slow load. Your processor is below the minimal game requirements. You may even have other problems too. Read this post Here. (http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=15891)

I did run RnR on Windows 7. No problem. Everything went so smoothly. :grin:
