    I mean if you think about it... linux is configurable enough to make it work... but idk if an 360 could handle it... it's just so old.

    Assuming if you could run beamng.drive on an Xbox 360, regardless of the software on it, nope. The Xbox 360 has 512mb of ram, and it takes 4gb to run the game at the lowest settings. I'm not exactly sure how console hardware wizardry works, but I think it's outdated for this kind of game. The game would have to be optimized with Xbox hardware in mind, and even then, I'm not sure. An Xbox One would be capable though.

    Yeah. An Xbox One and above could run the game. But keep your money in your wallet, as getting Beam on there is no easy feat.

    oof that memory! Is that half a gig at 700 MHz? You need at least 16x that to run BeamNG decently.

    get a dell precision t3500 for like £40

    stick some cheapo ecc ddr3 in it (my one has 24gbs in it cost £24)

    get a crappy 2014 gpu - i.e. gtx 650 or summin like that (mine has a 650ti BOOST cost £10)

    windows 10 will be free as it will almost certainly have a win7 key on the side

    get a 6c12t xeon for £10 or under

    boom, 30-60fps beamng pc for under £100
