EA Sports has revealed the official PC requirements for FIFA 18. According to the PC specs, PC gamers will need at least an Intel Core i3-2100 or an AMD Phenom II X4 965 CPU with 8GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GTX 460 or an AMD Radeon R7 260 graphics card.
What’s really interesting here is that FIFA 18 will support DX12. Let’s not forget that FIFA 18 is powered by the Frostbite 3 Engine and while FIFA 17 did not support it, it was almost a given that this latest version will support Microsoft’s latest API.
FIFA 18 will be released on September 29th and a PC demo will be released on mid-September via Origin.
And here are the full PC system requirements for EA Sports’ upcoming soccer title!

Why is it that DirectX 12 mode, which is supposed to be low-level with full access to the hardware etc., require HIGHER specifications than DirectX 11?
What is the use of DirectX 12 if you need higher specs just for it to run?
Anybody else sees the problem?
How does one get the benchmark figures?
The GPU reqs seem to be slightly higher but the CPU reqs go down significantly, which makes sense given that DX12 mainly addresses CPU bottlenecks.
Excited to play this but i will wait for it to land on Origin access while i keep enjoying FIFA 17.
So dx11 needs a 660 but dx12 need a 670 what a pile of garbage
Plus 40-50 GB for uncompressed textures.
I hope EA lower the price to around USD 30.
why not make EA Nhl for pc ..put on steam
It didn’t sell on PC. NHL and Madden were a bust selling under 100k units on PC and being pirated hundreds of thousands of times. Get a console if you want NHL or mod NHL 09 on PC.
