I have one 280X, plays the game almost all on ultra or high (no ridiculous AA levels), at 1920x1080 locked at 60 fps, i disabled grass though, it's a FPS killer ATM, in tracks like Oulton Park which is laser scanned and one of the most graphically intensive IMO.

The real difference between "Project Cars" and "Assetto Corsa"; will be the climatic condition, multi-player management, career and of course the cars available. Visually the two are equal according to the video of SPA Francorchamps ... on Project Cars certain textures of land around the track butes are prettier and some times it feels atmosphere (hazy table) .. but this is not the day and night :) The optimization of the material will also make a lot of the work for the players ...

The physics and driving 'feel' also varies between the two and without a doubt this is going to be very important (perhaps even a deciding factor) to distinguish which game/simulator is better.

Exactly ;) But for my part I have Assetto Corsa and I preordered Project Cars Limited Edition ^^ the climatic condition + The mind more towards competition (endurance) prevail for me ;)

Assetto Corsa is currently too "bare" career does nothing; the A.I. is unimaginably stupid; and online games are too restrectives.

In short many small details that can only motivate me to possess this Project Cars;)

I made some skins for Assetto Corsa and I hope to do the same on Project Cars;)

edit: And I invests exclusively in the computer for a few months to be ready on Project Cars;)
I added memory ddr3 / 1866 I ordered a headset Kingston HyperX Cloud and full G27s wheel (if necessary with the accessory to bring the clutch pedal + brake pedal in a single pedal)
edit²: When I say that I can not wait! I really look forward :)

I know what you mean about being bare. Although most driving simulators generally have this characteristic (though to a lesser extent than what is apparent in Assetto Corsa, I'm hoping it will improve as the game is continually developed). I also own Assetto Corsa and i have tried Project Cars once (at a friend's house at the beginning of this year so things could have changed by now), personally I prefer Assetto Corsa for the driving experience. The last simulator for me to feel that good was Live For Speed which is now ancient albeit still rather good especially the tyre physics imo. I think Project Cars will be a great game when I comes out but I just wasn't satisfied with the driving experience compared to Assetto Corsa (it may have been improved by now though I'm not sure). Driving the Abarth 500 in Assetto Corsa felt EXTREMELY similar to my Citroen DS3 which I take to the track on almost a biweekly basis. The lift-off oversteer I found to be almost perfect and inline with what I experience with my car in real life on the track ( I even simulated one of my 'offs' that I did at Queensland Raceway in the game). Although nothing can beat real G-forces though ;)

I'm still going to get Project Cars for sure though. It still drives very nicely and looks absolutely stunning, especially when it is raining.

Oh I also LFS S2;) but the x360 joypad is not included, unfortunately; I once used a steering wheel (without force feedback) but there has years of this. Now I expect my G27s. I was Skins on LFS too;) .. driving at night in the rain very interested; I love the endurance races (nürburgring nordschleife 25 laps, 50 laps of Le Mans Sarthe, ....) it a few years ago I played Forza Motorsport 4 (and we did a lot of enduro racing and endless it was REALLY good!) I am looking for as best they could game with pit management , vehicle settings, etc etc ... so I put on a lot PCARS because currently AssettoCorsa is too far

Also I saw a catalyst profile for Project Cars and for Assetto side there is nothing. I have a friend that is running an R9 290x at 35fps and it is not much better with my crossfire R9 280X Toxic. Profile catalyst that puts the chip in the ear that will finally optmisation of the game.

it's frustrating to see so much less powerful gaming consoles that our computers have racing games (Sim) as complete. (even if it's not at Assetto or PCARS) ... ^^

Assetto Corsa in 1920x1080 = 45/50 fps (with my crossfire)
Assetto Corsa in 5760x1080 = 27/32 fps (with my crossfire) and with 5 others IA or gamers.
Assetto Corsa in 5760x1080 = 35/60 fps (with my crossfire) alone in practice mode.

edit : The graphical optimization is missing on "Assetto Corsa". unfortunately.

The difference is quite striking.

Never liked Forza, and even in Forza 5 the cars look and feel as if they are on rails.

Nice, could not help feeling the silliest thing though, to me the mirrors don't look like they are in the right place.
