With the focus now firmly on console-first games, it’s not often you see a PC game that really demands the latest and greatest components. And that trend continues with Battlefield 4.
Developer Dice has released the minimum and recommended system requirements for playing the first-person shooter on PC, and chances are your existing PC will be able to easily handle it unless of course you’re running on ancient hardware.
As a minimum, Battlefield 4 will require the following:
  • Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz or AMD Athlon X3 2.8GHz
  • 4GB RAM
  • Nvidia GeForce 8800GT or AMD Radeon HD 3870 with 512MB memory
  • 30GB hard drive space
  • Windows Vista SP2 32-bit
That’s just if you want to run the game in playable form. However, if you want to turn up all the levels to maximum you’re obviously going to need a bit more grunt. With that being the case, Dice would love you to play Battlefield 4 with the following:
  • Intel quad-core or AMD six-core CPU
  • 8GB RAM
  • Nvidia GeForce GTX 660 or AMD Radeon HD 7870 with 3GB memory
  • Windows 8 64-bit
Chances are, if you’ve purchased a new PC in the last 12 months you already meet the recommendations, with one possible exception being the graphics card. You can pick up a GTX 660 or HD 7870 for around $200 if you need that upgrade, and either card will handle any game you throw at it for a few years to come.
Battlefield 4 is coming to pretty much every platform you’d want to play it on. PS3, Xbox 360, and PC gamers get it on October 29, where as PS4 and Xbox One should have it as a launch title.
