Project CARS was released in 2015. No published benchmark of Project CARS is in our dataset yet, so every FPS figure on this page is an estimate. Steam lists nVidia GTX 260, ATI Radeon HD 5770 as the minimum graphics card, about what integrated graphics deliver today.
Frame rate cap: none on record. We have no record of an engine frame limit for Project CARS, so our estimates assume it runs uncapped. V-Sync, an in-game limiter or your monitor's refresh rate can still hold it lower.
