    here are the specs of what she might buy...
    -HP Pavilion desktop PC

    -4GB DDR3 SDRAM system memory (expandable to 16GB)
    -Intel HD Graphics

    -software is a Genuine Microsoft Windows 8 operating system. to me it might work, I don't want much lagging so please give me your feedback,

    cpu is probably too slow and no dedicated graphics means lowest graphics settings is all you could get

    well, she hasn't bought it yet and her maximum price range is $350 in American cash:D so are there any computers out there in that price range that can handle BeamNG.Drive?

    For the whole computer? No. If you spent $350 on a processor alone, sure.

    -HP Pavilion desktop PC - HP in itself is a bad brand, I have had many issues with laptops, desktop I'm not too sure.

    -Intel Celeron G465 Processor and 500 GB hard drive 1.90GHz, 1.5MB Cache - This has numerous issues, a) 1.90 Ghz is not overly fast, You want to get something like Core i5 or better, i7. b) I did some research and found out that Celeron is the second worst processor: This pic is from best to worst: (top to bottom)

    -4GB DDR3 SDRAM system memory (expandable to 16GB) - You want to have 8-16 GB RAM

    -Intel HD Graphics - No dedicated Graphics? You want a decent AMD Graphics or a Nvidia.


    Hope I helped, pf12351.

    well, I guess It's like I cant even play it without it running halfway decent . this weekend I will get one more attempt. a friend of my dads, and a friend of mine has a computer specializing in gaming and he is willing to buy the game. once I find out his specs, I will post it to you guys on a new thread and hopefully it will meet the requirements.

    My suggestion would be to do some research and build your own PC. If you wait for a few sales to pop up on newegg you can get much better components and spend less money then buying a prebuilt PC. If you will primarily be using it for gaming then you will want at least 8GB sys memory, a dedicated GPU; even a low end model will be much better then using the IGPU, and for games like BeamNG you will want a faster CPU then the Celeron.
