  • Minimum: Windows 10/11 64-bit, Core i5-6600 or Ryzen 3 1300X, 8 GB RAM, GTX 1050 Ti / RX 470 / ARC A580, and 45 GB on an SSD.
  • Recommended: Core i5-8700 or Ryzen 5 3600, 16 GB RAM, RTX 2060 / RX 5700 XT / ARC A770, and 45 GB on an SSD.
  • Leave headroom for updates and background tools used for capture or voice chat.

Performance troubleshooting

Start with the official patch notes for known performance changes. Reduce the most expensive settings first, test in the same kind of zone, and record whether the issue is frame rate, latency, or loading.
