Avalanche Studios has revealed the official PC system requirements for Just Cause 4 via the game’s Steam store page. According to the specs, PC gamers will at least need a modern-day quad-core CPU with 8GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 or an AMD R9 270 graphics card.
Avalanche Studios recommends an Intel Core i7-4770 or an AMD Ryzen 5 1600 with 16GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 or an AMD Vega 56 graphics card. The game will also require 59GB of free hard-disk space.
Unfortunately the team did not specify what resolution, framerate or details these PC specs target. However Avalanche has also revealed the official PC requirement for running the game at 4K resolution. Now I don’t know why there is a CPU difference between the Recommended and the 4K requirements (normally a higher resolution stresses solely the GPU and has no affect at all to the CPU).
But anyway, Just Cause 4 has gone Gold and will be released on December 4th!

calling it now, this is going to end up a trash optimization like JC3.
There was hope at one point they were going to implement DX12 to improve performance, that never happened. Seems they didn’t bother with a DX12/Vulkan path this time either. But hopefully performance is better …
i hope so i don’t want little kids and poor people experience games i like.
are you okay
oh come on it will be great 5 years from now that the average person will be able to play it with decent graphics.
i wish system requirement was higher than this, i don’t want poor kids to play this. i deserve games that only rich and high iq people buy and play. ban all poor kids please.

“””According to the specs, PC gamers will at least need a modern-day quad-core CPU””” ?

Not fully accurate ? Well, the Minimum CPU specs have been listed as an Intel Core i5-2400, or an AMD FX-6300 processor or better. Pretty modest it seems.
But the i5-2400 is a 2’nd GEN INTEL processor/Sandy Bridge, and I won’t call it a modern-day CPU though, because it comes under the “Legacy Intel Core Processors list”.
But nonetheless, it should be fine for Gaming, including JC4, if they have listed this processor.
And, the FX-6300 is actually a 3 core/module CPU. In which each module has 2 integer cores that share some resources.
It’s similar to Intel’s HT or SMT, but not the same thing. So, the 6300 actually has 3 physical cores with 6 logical processors/threads. I won’t call it a true 6 core CPU, and there’s always been a debate about the FX 6300 chip, as to whether it’s a 6-core or 3-core.
The FX-6300 has been labelled a 6-core is because of the marketing. They used the word “core” for their threads, and used a new word “module” for the block of two threads/cores which it shares.
But, it’s not a proper Quad-core CPU though, more like 3 cores with 6 logical processors.
16 gb of ram? I have 16 but do they take into account the fact windows 10 use around 2-3gb of ram?
Actually thats the average i did also dual boot with a clean windows 7 it use around 2.5 max
So 2-3 gb is actually ok(most of the time it hovers between 2.2 to 2.7 on my windows 10)
And i already checked its a normal usage.
Ah i understand, windows 10 use ram according to what you have some of it is caching the more ram you have the more it use for caching, so if you have 8gb it will use 1.5-2gb as for 16gb most people report 3-4gb usage.
Same old crap, maybe even worst but needs twice the hardware. but hey, instead of an active volcano, we have a tornado, pay up.
