I was blessed with being chosen to receive a copy of Battlefield V in @King Poet's latest status giveaway! 
And now, here's an analysis of its system requirements in reference to Hex. ("Hex?" you ask? Scroll to my "System" section.)
[Minimum on left, recommended on right]
Who the f**k still uses Windows 8.1??? 
Ok, so the i5-6600k has FAR better IPC and 4-core performance than an i7-4790 does. So why is it the minimum requirement?

Well, Battlefield V was made using the legendary Frostbite engine, which evenly spreads processing loads across up to 16 threads. Plus, the i7-4790 has better multicore performance thanks to hyperthreading. The CPU requirement is definitely based on multicore performance.

Hex beats the recommended CPU requirement!
My RAM when playing Battlefield V (circa 2018, colorized):
Yeah, 8GB ain't what it used to be. I can fill it up with Google Chrome kinda easily now. Which is why I asked for a 16GB kit for Christmas. Might get it, might not, idk for sure. (found a smokin' Black Friday deal on a G.Skill kit while browsing Newegg with my dad, so we'll see...)
At least 8GB is enough to run it.
This is where things get kinda interesting. I bought Hex so that the GTX 660 minimums would stop kicking my ass. (My "old" Acer had a GTX 950m.)

Mission Accomplished there!
However, I have a GTX 1060 Max-Q, not an actual 1060.
Hex gets burnt here. IIRC, the 1060 Max-Q is right in the middle between the desktop 1050 Ti and 1060 6GB. It is also right in the middle between a GTX 960 and GTX 970.
Based on Techspot's benchmarks, I should get 55-60 fps with 45-50 minimums on 1080p Ultra with a GTX 1060 Max-Q in an ideal setting that I don't quite have (thanks 8GB RAM! 
). I don't want less than 60 fps in an FPS, so I'll probably have to go with high settings or a medium/high hybrid. Still gonna look gorgeous, though!!!
Can't put it with my other Origin games. 
At least I can put it on my storage SSD!
