official GRID PC specs


Recommended Posts

i prefer the Touring Cars and Track events myself i love watching the replays of my Touring Car, esp when i get given the Virgin Mobile design

just spent the evening playing the demo with all assists off and you really need traction control for the US cars, 1st gear is a knightmare without it

GRID = FAIL :)

If you read the guidelines for this forum, you'd see that it clearly says "no trolling". :rolleyes:

I will never be able to look past the horrifying handling, but the graphics are astounding.

Running at 1920x1200 - Everything maxed out, even AA ( 16XQCSAA ) - Only getting around 40 FPS :(

Very nice. Screenshots? :D

Turn the driving assists off and see if that improves the handling. I didn't find it bad at all.

I didn't find the handling all that bad..

Runs ultra settings on my 9600GT at 1440x900, 4x aa, vsync pretty damn good looking game.

Yep, the handling seemed fine to me. I actually like it.

Honestly though, the demo already makes me want to buy the full version. I think I'm going to buy a Logitech MOMO Racing Wheel just for GRID.

I have turned driving assists off, first thing i did. The handling is still a joke and worse then I've come to expect from an Arcade game.

I did actually install FRAPS last night to get some screenshots, but they all looked very weird, like the colors were washed out or they had been burned slightly.

Gotta try again tonight.

I'm sorry to hear that. The handling is great for me. A game that had really bad handling (and performance) was Need for Speed ProStreet. EA games should learn a thing or two from Codemasters when it comes to hardware optimizations and car handling. Anyway, I'll try to take some high quality screenshots too.

But why should I buy a "new" controller when the Logitech Rumblepad2 is new enough? And SHOULD be supported? I don't have money falling out of my ears. Bad Codemasters, bad *shakes finger*.

yeah it is annoying but i think you might find this happens more and more with racing games. it seems they are made for the 360 controller, at least once you have it you know that all games will support. plus it has analog accelerate and brake which is good to have.

Why not just go in with cash? :s

yeah, i didn't get that either lol

Why not just go in with cash? :s

because i wont have the money for when it comes out, i will only have the cash in friday (touch wood) so to stop me spending it im gonna put it on a game giftcard and forget about it for a week or so LOL

I was playing yesterday and I damaged the left side of my car so much that it influenced my steering. I had to hold "D" which is my right key to keep the car straight. Letting go of it sent me turning to the left. :laugh:

hey Anaron keep a look out for my playing online tonight after 11pm GMT my racing name is the same as my Neowin name, i normall do the Touring Cars

I'll check it out right now.

EDIT: It's pretty much impossible to know whose who. All the games have the same name, and most state that the slots are 11/12 but when you try to join it says something like "Failed to join session". The first game I did manage to join was short. I was banned within 15 seconds of joining the lobby.

In between? It's worse than Arcade, the way the cars handle, the way the camera pivots around when you spin around - This feels wrong and out of place.

damn, it's a waste of that damage model. i've yet to play the demo, only seen videos which looked great

    • draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 by Razvan Serea draw.io desktop is a downloadable security-first diagramming application that runs on Windows, MacOS and Linux. Creating diagrams in the desktop app doesn’t need an internet connection. This is useful when you are disconnected or when you must create diagrams in a highly secure environment, where data protection is of the utmost importance. When you use the draw.io desktop app, your diagrams will be stored on your local device. Because this is a stand-alone application, also designed to run offline, there are no interfaces to cloud storage platforms available. Of course, you can still store your diagrams in folders that are synchronised to your cloud storage if you wish. Easy-to-use diagram editor The draw.io apps work just like the office and drawing tools you are used to using. Drag and drop shapes from the shape libraries and drag to draw connectors between them. Drag connectors to add waypoints and set a precise shape and position, or let them reroute automatically. Double click and start typing to add a label to anything. Create tables and swimlane flows with a familiar tool. Style shapes and connectors with customisable palettes, sketch options, fonts and text formatting tools. Search for shapes, including in open-source icon libraries. Use our vast libraries of shapes and templates, organised into logical categories, to create a range of diagrams and infographics. Generate diagrams from text descriptions using our smart templates. Diagram faster with keyboard shortcuts. draw.io Desktop 30.2.4 changelog: Uses electron 42.4.1 Updates to draw.io core 30.2.4.

    • Microsoft will soon allow some users to block Copilot from analyzing their Office files by Usama Jawad Microsoft Purview is a pretty useful data governance, security, and management service that allows customers to gain enhanced visibility and control over their content. It's meant for commercial customers, such as organizations that are storing data at scale. As AI continues to expand and infiltrate every corner of a firm, many are a bit conscious about the technology gaining access to their confidential data. Microsoft is now making a configuration change that will allow such customers to rest easy. Right now, users within an organization have the option to apply Purview sensitivity labels (when available) to secure certain files and label them as such. For example, if you apply the "Confidential" label on an Excel file, the file will be encrypted, and a "confidential" watermark will be applied to it. So, if this file is shared with anyone, they are aware that its access is supposed to be restricted. Up until now, Microsoft was allowing some connected experiences, like its AI services, to analyze files, regardless of their sensitivity label. This is of major concern to most organizations, as a recent example highlighted how confidential emails with data loss prevention (DLP) policies like privacy labels were being uploaded to Copilot for analysis. As such, Microsoft is updating an existing Purview data label sensitivity setting that prevents "some connected experiences that analyze content", from being blocked completely from doing this. The label isn't changing, but the blocking is now being enforced across all connected services (including Copilot and other AI tools), and now extends to Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Files with the label applied already will get this enhancement automatically too once it becomes available. Microsoft has urged IT admins to inform their respective helpdesk and compliance teams, update internal documentation, and review sensitivity labels to ensure that they meet their respective compliance needs. This change is tagged as MC1297982 in the Message Center. General availability is scheduled to begin in a phased manner soon and will complete by the end of next month. That said, it is important to note that this only applies to commercial customers who have a license that allows them to use Purview.
