Its a relatively lightweight game in todays terms, especially for such a huge, open-world classic. At a time when we are already seeing games clamoring for 4080s and the like, it will be good to play a game at full settings without fear of your PC setting on fire.Minimum Specs: The Intel i5-4670 or AMD FX-9590 processors and 8GB RAM requirements are pretty low by todays standards. The GPU demands, such as a GTX 960 or Radeon R7 360, were mid-range cards from several generations ago, so most gamers with even an older system should be able to run this decently.Recommended Specs: The Intel i5-8500 or Ryzen 5 3500X paired with an RTX 2070 or RX 5700 XT leans more toward mainstream gaming rigs from a couple of years ago. These specs suggest that the game will look and run beautifully on hardware that a lot of PC gamers may have long since retired to a drawer, or that spare parts box under the stairs.The post Red Dead Redemption PC specs unveiled can you run it? appeared first on ReadWrite.
