If you’re looking to get Call of Duty: Ghosts for the PC next month, you just might need to upgrade your computer a bit. For one, the minimum requirements for the game require a 64-bit OS, and 6 GBs of RAM. That’s quite a bump up from Black Ops 2, which only needed 2 GBs of RAM.
Here are the minimum specs:
OS: Windows 7 64-Bit / Windows 8 64-Bit
CPU: Intel® Core™ 2 Duo E8200 2.66 GHZ / AMD Phenom™ X3 8750 2.4 GHZ or better
Memory: 6 GB RAM
Hard Disk Space: 40 GB
Video: NVIDIA® GeForce® GTS 450 / ATI® Radeon™ HD 5870 or better
Sound: DirectX compatible sound card
DirectX®: DirectX® 11
Internet: Broadband Internet connection for Steam and Online Multiplayer.
It’s pretty obvious that despite the fact the PS4 and Xbox One aren’t coming out until next month, they’re already having an effect on the gaming world. Now that the consoles aren’t limited to half a gig of RAM any more, developers can really start to expand the size and scope of games in any way they might choose. PC players, if you were thinking of saving your money by not getting a new console, you better think again if you’re hoping to play the latest games at high settings.
