Default Instal GWX 2 or stick with 1.03

I now play 1.03 with some mods (only graphical), this cause my processor is on the slow side 1.3. GHz. For the rest I aced the specs for optimal play. If I don't use the more elaborate mods (like 16k and keep lite harbor on) it plays ok.

But can my system handle Gwx 2?

Hi!

It should handle GWX V2.0 it if it worked OK with GWX V1.03, but you may want to stay away from some of the more intense single player missions.

My rig is marginal. I installed GWX2.0 and it works fine (so far).

I have GWX 2 set up on a laptop (don't ask me why) and so I can't run with all the bells and whistles either.

I think you'll find if you use the lite harbour traffic and don't go for the 16k visibility, you should be fine.

Great, tnx all for repliing. I'll stop my current career (4 100k patrols with 3 consecutive ones) I reckon gwx2 will be a walk in the park

Yeah, a walk in the park, only there's people walking their attack-dogs, and you happen to have a pound of steak down your trousers.... enjoy :rotfl:
