    Hi, I was wondering if you played TSW2020 with lower specifications than the requirements. I want to buy TSW2 on my PC instead on my PS4, but my PC have a bit lower specifications than the requirements.

    If somebody played TSW2020 on it, I like to know what your experience is.

    I only have 6GB of RAM, (8 is both recommended and the minimum) but the game generally works ok. Sometimes I get juddering and a bit of lag, but mostly it functions and looks ok. On almost every outing, I get a bad stuttering about 20-30 minutes in that lasts about 20 seconds or so and then its ok. Smoke effects are sometimes unseen, especially I've noticed on the Class 20 and track sleeper detail can be very rough, but that's a concern for many, I understand.

    Would 3.4GHz be enough ?

    Technically the game is ok from 3.2 GHz. If you have 2.7 then you surely are going to encounter difficulties with FPS. But it should still work, the other question is if it's joyable playing with that low specifications? I don't think so. Normally when you're under the requirements just a bit then it's not a problem, Ehm yes but I usually don't recommend playing under already given sysytem requirements, especially if they are significantly lower.

    My CPU is a tad below minimum, and the game runs pretty decent, but sometimes have some lagspikes, mostly when an AI train is approaching. Not ideal, sometimes annoying, but in general good enough to play it. Routes with more AI traffic seem to have more lagspikes.

    My specs;
    Intel i5-4440 @ 3.10GHz
    8GB RAM
    GeForce GTX 760

    GHz themselves don't really mean that much, there is a heap of things in a processor which affect its power. What CPU exactly do you have an what is the minimum/recommended one?

    Yes I did and blew up my Graphics card. It was constantly used at its max capacity and that seems not a very good idea.

    You could try it. Buy it and play for max two hours. After that time you can decide if it plays well on your system or to request a refund on Steam.
