Battlefield 1

[Guest]

Can my PC play Battlefield 1 (I have an ultrawide but if I have to I can play at 16:9) Specs: 8gb ram, a10 7870k, r9 390

Cpu might have some problems but yeah your good recommend 16 gigs of ram as first your GPU Ito good I okay with a r9 270x so you'll be perfect but like I said that cpu might be a little to weak

Yea I know the CPU was what I was mainly questioning.

Figured it will play but I think I will suffer a bit, does it bottleneck the 390 as far you know?

I don't really think so by a ton, it is harder to compare to benchmarks since I have an ultrawide but it does slightly in games like rainbow six siege I think, still runs at max tho(most graphical intensive game I have besides doom, which I was gonna trade for battlefield 1)

Why don't you just look up benchmarks..?  But yes, both the CPU and GPU are perfectly fine for High settings @ 1080p.

Performance is even better than in Beta. FPS never droped below 100,  max settings (1440p) on a full server. Im sure your will be fine.

Of course it runs fine for you, you've got a 6700K. Everything other than i7's are dropping to 30 fps in this game. It's very CPU heavy.

Hmm. I think your CPU should do way better than this.

Nah, there's a reason the i5 6600k is a minimum requirement. There's just too much going on in a multiplayer game, especially with 64 players. Anything lesser than an i7 and you won't have a smooth gaming experience in this game. I've seen dozens of posts on forums of people having the same issue, so it's not just me.

I played BF4 with a 2500k perfectly fine. Very strange...

BF4 is less CPU heavy, and my PC can run it at 60+ fps most of the time, but on Siege of Shanghai map for example, with 48-64 players, it drops to as low as 40 fps. It all depends on what you play and what's going on in the game, but if there's a lot of action on screen you better have an i7, cause an i5 ain't gonna cut it.

 

You can see here the GPU is clearly bottlenecked, while all 4 cores hit 100%.

I use 7.6GB RAM while running the game at everything ultra 1080p, which means the 8GB of OP is plenty.

Well yeah, that means 8GB is enough and OP doesn't need to upgrade to 16GB.
