Do I really need 2 GB memory?

I'm running the sim with only 1gig, but mind you all other requirements are exceeded. I'm not obsessed with FR, but rather if the game plays decently smooth, that's good enough for me. I have tweaked my rig the best I could by shutting down all background applications, and whatever else I could think of to squeeze an extra ounce of performance out of her.

Keeping your rig in tip top shape will help performance for sure. Defrag regularly, and be sure all your drivers are up to date. To take it one step further, update your BIOS, and Chipset as well. This all helps.

I set the ingame settings at half or better and suffer no major slowdowns, to speak of. Fine tune your rig, and you will be able to run this sim with 1gig of memory.
