EA DICE just revealed the minimum and recommended hardware specs for its two upcoming PC releases:Battlefield: Bad Company 2andBF: 1943.
As we imagined, both Frostbite engine-powered games will demand someoomphfrom fresher gaming rigs. In fact, the studio recommends no less than a Quadcore processor and a GeForce GTX 260.
If that’s a problem, don’t get too blue — the minimum specs revealed viathe officialBFblogleads us to believe that a Core 2 Duo can handle the on-field destruction as well. Just don’t expecttrue awesomeness(or the ladies for that matter) if you plan on rolling with an older PC. Stuff explodeshardin both these games.
Click through the fold for the requirements.
