Woud this Pc run a 40 man gate on outdoors with high settings?

Actually, for a super budget PC it isn't bad. Running outdoors on high detail good, most likely no.

Tracks are getting really good at using resources but there are too many user created rider and bike sources that aren't as well optimized.

I updated the list, it will be decent considering its still under $500 but to get high detail on it at a decent frame rate is shooting beyond its capabilities.

I changed the motherboard to one with better caps. Your's had 8pin power and low quality power caps and chokes which seems dangerous. This one has a 4pin power and more/better chokes and caps for better and more consistent power.
I changed the GPU to the R7 260X. While I'm a green fanboy the battle is between the 260x/270x or the 750/Ti and going for the cheapest performance possible for games the 260X wins. The 260X actually doubles the 740's performance for only $20 more, when I say that gaming label cards make a difference they truly do. The one you picked is more for HTPC's or Offices trying to get multiple monitor support, not games.
I changed the case to the Fractal 1000 because overall I believe its a better case.

Thanks if you can find more stuff like that for under 550
That can run sim really well with 80 or more frames and can run any other game like GTA 5 at 40 or higher I'll be happy

For a gaming PC any budget you have left over should be drove straight to the GPU bank. The parts list you have is really good but the GPU is what powers the games and its a pretty weak link. Now, you don't want to put a 980 in it as everything else will be holding it back so you'll want the best the system can handle, I'd say about a 960/770 grade GPU.

Just take that parts list and find your absolute top dollar you feel comfortable with buying. If you could afford something like a 280 in this it would be capable of the things you want with really good details. Though the cards I suggested are capable of playing the games, the detail may disappoint you, so just go as deep as you can.

How would his do with 40 man gate at these settings

It's not going to be good.

I run comparable hardware to that in my laptop at a low resolution (1366x766) and got 60-70 FPS racing Hangtown with these settings and with no skins downloaded other than my own:

Anything around 500$ won't runt that, put in a graphics card for 500$, then it may work. I think August's screenshot is what settings you should expect.

You upgraded the CPU/motherboard and downgraded the GPU. For a school PC good, for a gaming PC bad.

What would it take to run 10/100, Shaders Direct (shaders on..) all skins, national tracks 40 man gate? Would any power be able to handle that? My head says i7 4960X and Titan X.. O.o

Vram is going to be the biggest factor, I don't think you need that much CPU tho. 980 TI will probably be a good choice when it is released, 6GB of vram for all those team skins.

Well ofcourse a 980Ti is a good choice but there is alot of wasted power for a game like this. I think a 4GB 960 is the cheapest option to do so, paired with an i5. This game doesn't require alot of power because of how it uses it but all the custom things add up quick so to run it without LOD's at full resolutions I'd say minimum of 4GB. My 780 runs everything just fine at 90/9 x128 on a 40 man gate with ~2.5GB usage but I don't download things anymore, its just a replacement pack so the reused skins really help with the usage. To have everyone running individual would easily go over 3GB.

This is good insight into the main problem for people saying they're having lag. It is a stubbornness to accept the fate of having a regular, non-gaming rig. Not saying it's what Mr. 303 is doing since he is asking here, just that 100% everything is what most try for. Except the 0 roost instead of 1000, lol.

Like I said I picked it only for the Vram.

IMO if you are going to build or buy a computer simply set a budget and then build/buy the best computer for your purposes in that budget. It can be important to factor in a good upgrade path, specifically if you are starting with a low budget, a I3 can easily be swapped for a I5 or I7 if it was holding you back as well as the graphics card. Finding a good balance where you aren't rebuying a lot of stuff is important tho, usually buying the best GPU you can get is the best option for gaming and then pick the other components to reach your budget. If you come in over budget move down a card and try again.

How would this do on 70 8 128x128 Yes Yes Shaders/Direct Yes 74 10 0 Yes Yes
With those settings on a 40 man gate
