Thread: Would the 4.0 benchmark be dropping this week?

It's more about Stormblood than now. He must run the game just fine right now.

Will my computer be able to handle this new Minimum requirement with a Gefore GT 530?

I'm playing the game just fine now but with this new requirement for min I am concerned.

Will I? I have ZERO knowledge about this, and even though I'm saving money for a proper desktop, I think I'll need more time than until June to get a new one.

750 ti atm XD but ill get at least a 1050ti for stormblood, just hope my cpu can still hack it. I wanna say it should be ok >.> well see XD.

Except if Yoshi kept this reveal for the last Fan Fest.

There was a HUGE change in minimum requirements, so of course a benchmark is needed.

That's the problem: I can handle it now, but will my GPU be able to handle 4.0's 24-man raid and "next Mor Dhona"?

If the areas are designed within the capabilities of the PS4, then likely yes.
