RSR Silverstone race reports

[Bruce]

Can't say I had any more problem than usual; occasional stuttering and all. I was running in VR (Oculus Rift) so my frame rates were limited to 90 anyway. Unfortunately with RF2 I never see anything like this. I have most things turned off or low. I did a ctrl+r out of curiosity and it was the same as usual. low of 20, max of 46 and average of 40, about half of what I get in iRacing with higher settings. Not sure what my problems are maybe my system is not powerful enough, Before I got VR I was running most settings at max. I had to turn a few things off in iRacing and most in RF2. Most of the time I just do iRacing. As well as RF2 I do have a couple more Steam games; FSX SE and Assetto Corsa. I still have LFS as well as the apps and free games that came with my headset. All these run fine on their default settings. My system specs are:

CPU Overclocked to 4.3Ghz - Stable OC on all CPU cores
CPU: Intel Core i5 6600
CPU Cooler: Corsair H80i v2 Performance Liquid Cooler
RAM: 16GB Crucial 2133mhz DDR4 (2x8GB)
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 4GB
PSU: 650W Corsair VS

Not sure if it's relevant but all but RF2 use Oculus Rift directly; RF2 uses Steam VR which I believe is not native Rift. When I am using RF2 both the Oculus and Steam VR programs are running. I can't just run Steam VR (AFAIK). Last time I tried to run a game without VR (discounting Xbox on big screen TV) I realy missed the depth perception and just couldn't get used to sitting in a "car" with just a monitor popping over the top of the wheel.
