    ok so I have had problems running beamng for awhile and since the last couple updates when it diagnosed the problems with running the game it says that my "clock speed" is below 2GHz is there any way to change this? Thanks

    Post your PC specification and a screenshot of that message please.


    If it says you are under 2Ghz it means your CPU is running by default at a lower 'clock speed' than is needed to run BeamNG smoothly.

    Options are to:

    -Overclock CPU (If you don't know what is this, better skip it)
    -Upgrade CPU

    That is the literal answer.

    The CPU is underpowered, and seems to mostly belong to laptops so is not advisable to be overclocked. No solution.

    Your CPU and GPU are both under the minimum requirements, therefore, the game runs poorly.

    Solution: get a better computer. or turn down a few settings, but I doubt that will get the game running well enough to play.

    BeamNG is a very heavy program, and there are few laptops that can run it properly... an A4 with Radeon R3 is very, very slow. You are pretty much out of options until you can get a new machine.

    Small relative cheap solution to buy.

    Asrock am3+ board

    AMD fx 6350 CPU

    Msi GeForce gtx 960 or 970

    16 gigs of ram.

    Psu with at least 550 w

    Why on earth 16gb??? So few applications (particularly gaming...) require more than 8 that its not worth it, particularly when advising on a budget build...

    On the topic of budget builds why a 970? you can run most games fine with a 750 Ti...

    The GPU is the most important part in a gaming PC. A 970 is almost twice as powerful as a 750 Ti and is not only much better now but will last longer before it needs replacing. And a 750 Ti can't run every game fine, you'll have to go for mid-low settings in many.
    16GB RAM though, utterly useless for gaming, I've yet to hit 8GB even with games like GTA V.
