System Requirements Minimum CPU: Intel Core i5-2400S @ 2.5GHz or AMD FX-4320 @ 4GHz RAM: 6 GB HDD: 50 GB GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 660 or AMD Radeon R9 270X (2 GB of VRAM) OS: Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 (64-Bit) Recommended CPU: Intel Core i7-3770 @ 3.5GHz or AMD FX-8350 @ 4GHz RAM: 8 GB GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 970 or AMD Radeon R9 390 Editor's System CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K RAM: 16 GB DDR3 1600MHz (Corsair CML8GX3M2A1600C9) SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 250 GB GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 970 SSC OS: Windows 10 (Version 1607) (64-Bit) The minimum system requirements are really minimum and may not be enough to feed you 60 fps at 1080p. Neither is there many graphics cards that will operate with stable 60 fps in the Very High preset. Some settings will generally not make a difference with the look of the game. This game is very GPU intensive, Nvidia released game-ready drivers for the game yesterday which should help performance - but doesn't really help with performance. Feels like the game isn't optimized correctly, as it can't handle the medium preset settings without going under 60 FPS constantly. Just having the game minimized in the menu takes ~60% of my CPU power. The benchmarks are based on the Low and Medium preset to save as much GPU power as possible. Preset The game has five presets, from Low to Ultra. Ultra uses about 4.5 GB of ram and ~5 GB of VRAM which will require a very high system for stable framerates.

Possible that the developers forgot to add it, and may come in a future patch. Seen in the image below, FXAA is the best choice but because how it works it will make the game appear more blurry.

Good thing they left acceleration disabled as default, raw input is missing but I don't notice any acceleration issues with the game. Audio Something that bogs me is that voice chat is enabled by default and uses a poorly implemented Open Mic Sensitivity Mode which tries to detect whenever you're speaking to sort out noise. You should also change Microphone Volume to your preferred mic gain, because the game sets will set it to 100% which is annoying since not everyone wants to use 100% gain as it picks up a lot noise and will ignore what you set in Windows.
