So, now I have an excuse to upgrade my system.

what you have now should be enough.

yah its mostly self explanatory

logicalincrements.com is helpful as well if you're unsure where to start.

Both these sites are game changing for me so I have them bookmarked. Might give myself a good Christmas present this year.

Yes. That is an actual game. You can buy it on steam lol

Well...now I gotta check it out! Seeing how it plays...I was REALLY hoping Let's Game it Out made some...horrible PCs.

It's going from PS3 graphics to PS4 graphics. I'm sure you'll be fine with what you have.

I'm still getting 50-60 fps@1080p with shadows turned off, on gtx 1050 + intel g3450 unless if an area is very crowded then it drops to 40-45 fps. I will keep playing this PC until it dies, probably the best investment I have ever made. Been 7 years now. As long as my raids are constant 60 fps Im fine with it. Feels good when you build something that lasts very long.

Thankfully have been saving for a new PC and am not too far having enough to make the purchase. My current PC doesn't meet the minimum requirement in terms of CPU.

my PC is old old old, but I want a new PC to play the new mortal Kombat and that RE4 remake game that came out.

money money which I don't have

The recommended requirements shown were only for 1080p.

This.

Just upgraded my old 6700k to an i5 13500 after i saw the minimum specs, should cover me for another 5 years or so with my 3070.

Playing xiv in 4k ultrawide 144hz is a different experience, and ill never go back to lower resolutions.

With Series X and PS5 widely available, people could also just buy one of those for the cost of a new video card or less, depending on one's budget. Only downside would be having to buy the game again for the system, but your account and character(s) all stay^^

Only if you want to play on console.

To the OP, definitely time for PC upgrades for me but I've needed them for a while. We focused on my hubby's system since he PC games more than I do. I mainly use it for MMOS, Diablo type games, and co-op FPS like Borderlands. He actually plays current AAA single player titles on his. Probably going to look at upgrading us both since he has a Ryzen 7 in there but the motherboard he has limits me on how much I can upgrade that CPU.

I'm 99% sure that monitor doesn't exist.
