The most important factors in determining how smoothly GRID™ Autosport plays are your CPU speed, the amount of built-in RAM, the type of graphics card in your computer and the in-game settings you select.
GRID™ Autosport is playable with the minimum specifications listed below, but it will play more smoothly on faster computers with more RAM. However, if you are dissatisfied with the performance of the game on your computer, there are a couple of things you can do that are likely to improve performance:
In addition to these general actions, there are numerous specific in-game settings you can select to speed up the game. These are listed below in order of performance improvement (largest improvement first). Move down the list adjusting settings until you find an acceptable balance between performance and graphics.
NOTE: All of these settings are found in either GRID™ Autosport's pre-game Options window under the Display tab or within the game under Options & Extras → Options → Graphics, accessible from the Main Menu.
To uninstall GRID™ Autosport, follow these steps:
If it is not already running, launch the Steam application.
Select the Library tab.
In the library, right-click on GRID™ Autosport in the list of games on the left-hand side of the window, then select Manage → Uninstall.
