Four player monster-hunting shooter Evolve is about to get a so-called ‘Big Alpha’ test, and developer Turtle Rock has revealed the PC specifications you’ll need to run it.
Turtle Rock stresses that these aren’t the final specs for the game, just what’s required at this stage of development. Can’t see it changing too much between now and then, though.
You can sign up for the Evolve Alpha here, which will run from October 31 to November 2. Considering some of the other specs that have been listed recently, there’s nothing here that will break the bank for most PC gamers (I’m looking at you, Assassin’s Creed: Unity).
Nvidia’s GTX 680 card is listed as recommended, rather than minimum, for example, and the memory requirement sits at a reasonable 4GB. Here’s the list:
MINIMUM SPECS
CPU:
Intel Pentium D 3GHz or higher
AMD Athlon 64 x2 Dual Core 6400 2.4 GHz or higher
RAM: 4GB
GPU:
AMD Radeon 5770 or higher
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 or higher
HDD: 15GB Install
OS: Windows 7 64-bit
Whether you’re using a lower-end PC or just value frame-rates over quality: We turned down the settings a bit and turned off AA to get some extra frames on an older test rig in the office.
RECOMMENDED SPECS
CPU:
Intel Core i7 920 2.67GHz or higher
AMD A8-3870 3GHz or higher
RAM: 6GB RAM
GPU:
AMD Radeon R9 280 or higher
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 or higher
HDD: 15GB Install
OS: Windows 7 64-bit
