@Simberia
CPU: AMD Athlon II X2 255 (dual core) @ 3.1GHz
RAM: 4GB (DDR3 I think)
GPU: ATi Radeon HD 5450 1GB (DDR2 version I think)

Windows Experience Index
Processor - Calculations per second: 5.6
Memory (RAM) - Memory operations per second: 5.9
Graphics - Desktop performance for Windows Aero: 4.2
Gaming Graphics - 3D business and gaming graphics performance: 4.8
Primary Hard disk - Disk data transfer rate: 5.9

Windows Vista Business 32-bit with SP2.

If it does work, what graphics settings?

Will I be able to get a hard copy for PC in somewhere like GAME or will I have to get a Steam account?

I really want it on PC, I just upgraded my GPU and I don't want to get the Xbox version (again) because I have a wheel for PC. Also, my Xbox Live account isn't Gold level, therefore I want to get the PC version so I can race with RD. :)
 
I definatly think it's upgrade time for you, the new game will have better graphics, more things going on in the game which require even more power from all resources, let alone the graphics.

If you was able to run the game then it would indeed be on low settings.
 
mmm... I hope I dont have to upgrade, similar(ish) spec here

CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 dual core 5600+

F1 2011 Pc requirements

I have 2 pc and i was wondering if my 2nd pc would be able to play F1 2011 as well:

windows7
intel core 2 duo cpu E6550 @ 2.33GHz (2cpu's)
2048MB RAM

Nvidia Geforce 9600GT
integrated ramdac
1258 MB

32-bit

I could play F1 2010 with it

and could someone post the minimum specs
 
Not sure what's required to max out everything but I imagine you'd need a quad core CPU like an i5, 4GB of ram and something like a GTX480/HD6950 GPU or above.

I have a an i5, 8Gb ram and a HD6870 but I dont expect to be able to max out everything at 1080p. I preffer to turn down a few settings from max if it means I get solid 60 fps.
 
Here's mine:

OS: Windows 7 64-bit
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo CPU E7200 @ 2.53 GHz, 2533 MHz
RAM: 3GB
GPU: Radeon HD 4800 Series

Windows Experience Index:
Processor - Calculations per second: 6.1
Memory (RAM) - Memory operations per second: 5.9
Graphics - Desktop perfromance for Windows Aero: 7.3
Gaming Graphics - 3D business and gaming graphics performance: 7.3
Primary hard disk - Disk data transfer rate: 5.9

I can run F1 2010 at all lows at just under 30 FPS.
 
Well if you guys have a similar PC to mine, don't get your hopes up. I just tried a PC copy of F1 2010 and it REALLY struggled even on the lowest settings. <sigh> Xbox version for me then, which means no wheel (and I can't use a G27 when I get one in a month or so), not without that XCM adapter thing they showed on SRT.
