This PO problem is BULLSHIT for sure, in racing u need to be able to maintain a
rhythm, which is impossible with the PO crap.

Runs fine at 800 x 600 with my P3-500 and Matrox G400.
Which, I might add, F1200 CERTAINLY DOES NOT.
So if you're gonna flame a game because of hardware requirement - F1200's
guilty - GP3 is not.

all on except hill and track side object. PO on grid (6th) around 60-70%
depending on the track. First corner can go up to 110-120 for a second or two.
During racing PO could drop down to as low as 30-40% even in the wets
depending on the track and which part of it (even in Monaco).
If you have a 17" monitor you need to run it at 1280x1024 as anything lower
looks ugly. I upgraded my system (CPU and Video card, was Celeron 500 oc to
562 and a TNT card) just for GP3. Was it worth the upgrade...well to be frank
I was a quite disappointed when I first tried the warez version. After I've
played for longer I started to enjoy it more and more. I brought the retail
box the first day it became available in New Zealand (28/7). So is it worth
all the $$$ (hardware & software) spent for me IT IS.
