Check your own PC
Pick your processor and graphics card — we compare them with this game's requirements.
How we estimate: a PC exactly at the recommended spec is taken as ~60 FPS at 1080p Medium and one at the minimum spec as ~30 FPS at 1080p Low; your CPU and GPU scores are compared with those, then fixed multipliers for resolution and preset apply. Real results vary with drivers, patches and upscalers.
