    I've tried everything from disabling Post-FX to putting my Lighting details to "Lowest" setting yet I still run on around 25-30FPS which is good, but I can't really enjoy the game as much as I wanted to. Will there ever be any better optimization for AMD CPU's/GPU's so that us cheaper gamers can have a smoother experience?

    On a side note, probably the best 10 pounds I ever spent.

    Out of curiosity, have you tried changing any of the settings in the left hand menu when you first start the game? Originally I had messed with the "graphics" settings on the right hand menu, and FPS changed 1-2 overall on many of the settings, but once I turned off SSAO, my FPS increased dramatically. It appears to be on by default.

    Though, as an aside, I keep reading people with AMD chips having trouble getting high FPS, but don't know if that's actually the case (that the AMD chips are struggling with the game).

    I'll try that, thanks :).

    Also, why don't I have a BeamNG DRIVE icon below my name? I've bought it :L

    Awesome.
