Feral Interactive have released the specifications required to run DiRT Rally that will release on March 2nd for Linux. See their news here.

Minimum:
Intel Core i3-4130T or AMD FX6300 processor
Ubuntu 16.10 (64bit) or SteamOS (2.0 : 2.110)
8GB RAM and a 1GB NVIDIA 650ti/AMD R9 270 graphics card* or better.

Recommended
Intel Core i7-4770 processor
8GB RAM
4GB NVIDIA 970 graphics card* or better.

*NVIDIA graphics cards require driver version 370.28. AMD graphics cards require MESA 13.0.2 or better.

It's fantastic to see another Feral Interactive port with day-1 Mesa support, so this should keep the AMD crew happy.

I'm hoping to have a review and port report ready for release as usual, so stay tuned for that.

Will you be picking up a copy? I look forward to livestreaming it with some of you! Going to be a fun game to get a tournament going in. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

I think DiRT Rally is the coolest racing game ever:

F1 2015 was already cool but I think that is really fun. It's just so realistic.

By the way: Has Feral any plans to bring F1 2016 to SteamOS?

Nope, DiRT Rally won't require SSSE3. Deus Ex: Mankind Divided needed SSE4.1, by the way.
Sorry, I understood the post in the Steam forums incorrectly. So, does that mean that it will work on Phenom II CPUs?
No probs. Phenom II CPUs won't be supported. So you can give it a go, but at your own risk!
As long as their is no need for an instruction set that is not supported by the Phenoms it shouldn't be a problem, since at least most of the Phenom II X6 are faster than the FX6300.

Thanks for the clarification!
