RTX 2060 Super / RX 5700 XT
System memory and prerequisites
16GB RAM recommended. 70GB SSD; higher settings and ray tracing increase CPU, VRAM and RAM needs.
What the developer actually recommends
The published recommended GPU class is RTX 2060 Super / RX 5700 XT. 1080p high target; ray tracing is a separate, much heavier workload. The published recommended system-memory reference is 16GB. You can verify the complete requirements at the developer, publisher or store listing ↗.
How to think about 1080p, 1440p and 4K
1080p: Start with the official recommended PC tier, then adjust the graphics preset for your target refresh rate. 1440p: More pixels normally call for a stronger GPU class. 4K: Confirm game-specific tests and VRAM before buying; upscaling can change the experience. Our interactive checker compares broad GPU performance classes, not measured frame rates inside this game.
Do you actually need a new GPU?
If your current card is near the published recommended class, try changing textures, shadow quality, ray tracing and upscaling settings before paying for a replacement. A GPU alone cannot guarantee compatibility: CPU, system RAM, VRAM, storage, drivers and game updates also matter.
