iRacing System Requirements FAQ

Can I run iRacing on a low-end PC?▼
You can *try* to run iRacing on a PC meeting the minimum specs (Intel Core i3-4130 or AMD FX-6300, Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti or AMD Radeon R7 310, 8 GB RAM), but expect lower frame rates and potentially reduced graphical settings. A PC closer to the recommended specs will provide a significantly better experience.
What GPU do I need for iRacing?▼
The minimum GPU is an Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti or AMD Radeon R7 310. For a smoother experience with higher settings, an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 or AMD Radeon RX 590 (or better) is recommended.
How much RAM does iRacing need?▼
iRacing requires a minimum of 8 GB of RAM. However, 16 GB of RAM is highly recommended, especially if you plan to run other applications in the background or use higher graphical settings.
Will iRacing run on integrated graphics?▼
While *technically* possible, running iRacing on integrated graphics is not recommended. You will likely experience very low frame rates and significant graphical limitations, making the game difficult to play. A dedicated graphics card is strongly advised.
What is the best graphics settings for iRacing?▼
The 'best' settings depend on your hardware. Start with the 'Low' preset and gradually increase settings like texture quality, shadow quality, and anti-aliasing until you find a balance between visual fidelity and performance. Monitor your FPS using the in-game overlay (Ctrl+F) to ensure a smooth experience.
