I'm good to go!!
I think?
920 is several generations behind the 3**** listed in the specs.
....But, still most likely good to go.

pshhh
On a serious note, I have a 930 and a 3570K, I may see which will perform better for this game and just use that PC. Would have to do some GPU switching though.
At stock 2.66 im not so sure

Does ACIV not run great on PC ?. What specs do you need to get it looking like the PS4 version and 1080p but at 60fps ?.

Doesn't Ubi usually far overshoot the reccomended specs though?

Seeing as your CPU blows the 8350 out of the water, you would have made a bad choice.
You can't compare the 8350 to your processor like it's apples to apples. Look up a benchmark if you're that worried.

I have to think they're full of shit unless this is the most unoptimized pile of shit they've ever crapped out.
There's no way 8 netbook cores can best a 2500k.
Except if you're in GTA and using amd gpu.
If this fucking game isn't going to make use of Win8.1 / DirectX 11.2 features for multi-threaded optimization like BF4(sorry for the vague explanation, I can't remember what exactly they used in Dx11.2 to increase CPU performance), and still requires an 8-Core and then runs like a piece of shit, then thats fucking it! This will be my last UbiSoft game, not even The Division will make me break this promise!
That was during the PS360 era, before we had consoles with x86 and off-the-shelf computer parts.

No offense and I'm not trying to be snarky or anything but did you just start seriously becoming a PC gamer? There is no way you can assign 'future proof' to PC gaming in any context. PC gaming is an open platform and each game is going to be optimized differently. Some better than others depending on sku's (PC exclusive more than likely would end up being better than a game on 5 different platforms). You don't build a rig and expect to perform a certain way or be enough for the 5+ years. You don't what advancements are going to be made or what how optimized an engine will be for a certain game, the devs don't know themselves.
Every PS4 owner has the exact same specs and will be optimized accordingly, not the same for PC. You can't look at a console and use it as a baseline. There is no 'jaguar tablet cpu' or '1.84 tflop gpu' for recommended or minimum specs. Every game is going to be different.
I played it with i72600 and HD6850 at 1080p. Don't have an exact number for FPS but it was more than 30.
Calling bullshit.
You will end up playing the division if it's great.

It recommends an 8 core top of the line CPU,
but also recommends a quite old mid tier graphics card...
What?
I had a 560ti, but upgraded 2 years ago when newer games came out and couldn't run them at 1080p/60. If you are playing on PC, I don't think you would really want anything less than that. That card is pretty old now. This just doesn't add up. This is probably going to be a not so great port.

Heh, I'm still running my i5 2500k at stock speed. Lets hope you're right.

GTA 5 will be.
4670K with R9 270 is a bit of a mismatch imo, you will be GPU-limited more likely.
If we ever get it
Don't have the budget for a $300+ GPU and I got a sweet deal on the r9 270 anyways. I knew full well what I was getting into when buying my parts. As long as my multiplats looks and run better (higher than 30 fps) than the console equivalent than I'm a happy camper.

It recommends an 8 core CPU but will in all likelihood have zero problems performing perfectly on a 4670k CPU.

Especially with the delay. They could have used the time to optimize the game. Hoping to get 60fps with a 670/i5-3570k. Hate playing at 40 fps ruins the immersion by a lot.

Except that's not true at all. Read between the lines here from this Polygon article. The emphasized part at the end is most important:
Guay is admitting they started development on PC, shifted to next gen platforms when they got the next gen devkits, then went back to PC after nearing completion of the next gen versions. They didn't complete the game on PC first then port it to next gen, they completely shifted focus then came back to PC later.
It's NOT going to look like the 2012 E3 Reveal on a beefy PC and I highly doubt it'll be optimized well either. That article made it quite clear their focus is on consoles. Everything in the article discussion PC is typical PR spin.
We got benchmarks for these kinds of comments the rumored spec thread is the same arguments going on here. We will know soon enough.
Also considering what the consoles are made from it would be hard for this game to run like crap even if they don't optimize much. This isn't last generation not by a long shot.

it is, they are bullshitting with the specs.
Yeah your comment makes a whole lot of sense considering the game was made with PC as the lead platform. The recommended specs don't mean shit. Wait until the fuckibg game is out. Is that so difficult?
I'm good to go!!
I think?
With my 16GB of RAM and my 7970, I should be able to play this juuuuust fine.
Yeah I would guess otherwise. Like I said I would certainly rather run this on a 2500k then an 8350.
Plus it's PC. Slap a 30 dollar hyper 212 on there and overclock. Even a bad 2500k will hit 4.4/4.5. I've seen good ones on air over 5ghz.
I just find it extremely hard to believe this thing is going to be maxing more then four cores and if it turns out that the bottleneck is single threaded performance the guys with i5's and older i7s will be in basically the same position as anyone with a 4930. Plus or minus clockspeed and a few percentage points for sandy/ivy/has arch differences.
This please. So many people flipping their shit all because of an innacuracy in the specs.
Calm down and educate yourself about the next gen platforms and how their architectures compare to the PC architecture. The game will run great on PC as long as it runs decently on consoles because the architectures are damn near identical. Some of you people need to get out of your 360/PS3 era ways.
Apparently it is. One would think the game is out already and plays like Crysis on 2005 hardware, judging by comments.
