For 1080p, you can lock in a stable 60fps even on GPUs slightly below official specs. Even at 4K, a modern mid-tier GPU gets the job done without breaking a sweat.
Building new? Even modern entry-to-mid-tier rigs will run this smoothly. If you're pushing 4K, you'll need at least a mid-range GPU and a capable CPU to prevent bottlenecking.There's a massive variety of viable CPU/GPU combos for 1080p. If you're willing to hunt the used market, you can put together a dirt-cheap rig that still gets the job done.

The Game's Verdict: Recommended Specs & Grade
Packing both upscaling and ray tracing, this 2023 release was an ambitious title sitting right on the bleeding edge of the AI-driven GPU era.
On standard settings, the visuals can still suffer from noticeably flat textures. If you want to get fully immersed in the game's terrifying atmosphere, cranking the graphical presets and flipping on ray tracing is highly recommended. To pull that off, a mid-tier GPU or better and a capable CPU that won't bottleneck your rig are absolutely non-negotiable.
Pushing for peak visual fidelity is exactly where the game's FSR support comes in clutch. Grabbing a current-gen GPU with a healthy VRAM buffer and leaning on upscaling is your best bet for maximizing your bang for the buck between eye candy and framerates. One major catch: this game lacks native support for NVIDIA's DLSS. Keep that in mind when parting out your build.
