Are you in search of the optimum VR graphics to engage yourself in racing simulator rFactor 2?
Probably, one of the more important parts of the whole process of virtual racing is the adjustment of the graphics settings. No one wants a laggy race right?
Thus, the ones that we recommend are a combination of boosting somehow the performance whilst still being able to feel the speed as well as good graphics.
We also want to be sure that under such conditions, you will have a good framerate too, thus we have included some options that will help you fine-tune things in order to achieve that high fps, without much of an effort.
Having said that remember that your PC system and GPU will also play a role in how everything looks and feels in the game and so be sure to take note of this when making the modifications.
SO without further ado, let’d dive right in.
