recommended specs/ hardware

[Undeadelkins]

what are the required or recommended specs foe the game because it keeps freeezing up on some maps and missions.

[slut enjoyer]

thing is, this game can really run on pretty much any man's PC. it just depends on how much you throw at it. you'll coast at 80-90+ with you, your vehicle, and the grid maps. but even the priciest PC's will begin to suffer with 7+ moving AI and Ultra-setting rendered terrain. so when ur frames drop, ur not alone. usually I dial my settings according to scenario.

Well not the most priciest with 8 core and 16 core CPUs that could probably run even more cars.

i have a rtx 3070 and a r7 5800x, with the game pretty cranked in 1440p i get like 80 fps

Hi all, first of all sorry for the translation, but I don't know English.
I have this Ryzen 5 5600x configuration, 16GB of Ram DDR4 3200 Mhz and RTX 3070 TI of the MSI X Trio version of 8GB.
Three days ago I was recording a video for my Youtube channel, suddenly the warning appears that the Ram memory was 80% occupied and advised me to close the game or restart it. However, I didn't encounter any problems in the game and I was playing with all ultra/high settings in 1080p plus it was recording with OBS for the Webcam that I use in videos as a FaceCam.
Of problems with the gameplay video I recorded I have not had any corruption issues. Maybe it's due to the fact that the game has been in Alpha since it came out?
It seems absurd to me that a 2013 game, despite having crazy physics, needs 32GB of Ram. I've never seen such Ram-intensive games and PC gaming since way back in 1998.
Let me know if you too have had the same problem.
Thank you and good evening.

it's because you have OBS and other background programs running at the same time. BeamNG alone will not take up 16gb of ram. The map you're playing also heavily influences how much ram the game will use, modded maps can have memory leaks and whatnot as well. so unless your game is vanilla, you can't claim BeamNG NEEDS 32gb of ram.

[magicko84]

I discovered the cause, it is neither a problem with the game in Alpha nor with OBS, but with the Cyberpunk mod map, which I had downloaded and tried for the occasion, but then uninstalled it.
With other map mods, like Car Jump and other car mods, I haven't had this problem.
This does not detract from the fact that in the requirements of a 2013 game there are 32GB of Ram among the recommended requirements, something honestly never seen in a 10-year-old title, at most 16 but no more.

I wouldnt consider the current version of the game as being outdated, the minimum requirements have increased with the complexity of the engine. There are a lot of things being simulated now that were not incorporated into the original build.

[magicko84]

Attention, I didn't write obsolete game, but old game, they are two different terms.
Obsolete game is used to indicate a game that is abandoned by the developers for long periods.
An old game refers to the age of the game, but that doesn't mean it has been abandoned.
BeamNG Drive, vanilla without any active mod, is not a game to have such high recommended Ram requirements and I repeat, we are talking about a game released in 2013, it can have improved graphics and improved physics over the years of development , this is true, but the graphics engine is still the same as it was 10 years ago, I don't think it has been recreated from scratch on a new graphics engine, it means that it is not optimized well, this is what I want you to understand.

I never said obsolete either, I said outdated. About 3 major updates ago the entire simulation engine was updated and the previous build was deprecated, it has very much been rewritten more than once. This game relies heavily on your CPU and ram speed, your GPU will only perform so well with a bottleneck.

[magicko84]

No bottleneck, I have the Ryzen 5 5600x, an RTX 3070 TI X Trio and 16GB of Ram at 3200 MHz DDR4.
At this point the only thing that comes to mind is the Cyberpunk map mod, maybe it hasn't been optimized well and therefore is hungry for Ram.
I tried with other maps, such as Mega Ramp, Car Jump and Slant of Death, with some Automation cars, but I didn't get any warning and checking from Windows 10 Task Manager, the Ram was at 48% usage, obviously the graphics card was on 75%, but this is normal, if it was the other way around, I would have worried, and a lot.

Safe to say the mod is just too much, is it the entirety of Night City? I have never used the mod before so I am unfamiliar with it.
I am running an FX 8350 cpu with 24gb of ddr3 ram at 1600 MHz and a GTX 1070 8gb and the only time I have framerate issues are when I have more than 5 cars spawned at once. I hold a steady 50-60 FPS on high settings in 4k resolution.

[Puls3]

Love all the people saying to look at the store page - how many times has the minimum been waaaay wrong? Then again, many people's definition of "playable" is widely different.

Especially with this resource hog of a game. Getting good frames on high refresh rate monitors is near impossible with a couple AI racers or traffic.

[Raco]

Recommended specs i what I'd consider the minimum. I'd like to see anybody running this on a gtx 550ti

You might as well just go all out with the hardware. 8GB of RAM, an RX570 and a FX 8350 8 Core CPU used to cut it a year ago, an easy 60 FPS on optimized graphic settings. Now it needs 16 GB of RAM and a CPU powerful enough to model the universe.

It works just fine on my rig
