  • Final Stalker 2 PC System Requirements Aren't as Reasonable as We Had Hoped

    Well this is a bummer.
    The final list of all PC system requirements for Stalker 2: Shadow of Chornobyl.

    On the first of November, we reported on the PC system requirements for Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl. Those system requirements were the ones posted to the official Steam page for Stalker 2. Sadly, it seems like GSC Game World only put up some placeholder requirements because the actual system requirements were shared today by the development team. The Steam page for Stalker 2 has also been updated with these new requirements.

    Sadly, it looks like most of the specs for both the minimum requirements and recommended hardware have been increased. This includes CPU, GPU, RAM requirements, and even the amount of storage space required for the game. The new, and presumably final, PC requirements for Stalker 2 are as follows:

    Low Preset (Minimum requirements)
    • Resolution target FPS: 1080p / 30 FPS
    • CPU: Intel Core i7-7700K or AMD Ryzen 5 1600X
    • GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6GB or AMD Radeon RX 580 8GB or Intel Arc A750
    • RAM: 16GB Dual Channel
    • Storage: ~160 GB SSD
    • OS: Windows 10 x64 or Windows 11 x64
    Medium Preset
    • Resolution target FPS: 1080p / 60 FPS
    • CPU: Intel Core i7-9700K or AMD Ryzen 7 3700X
    • GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 Super / RTX 4060 or AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT
    • RAM: 16GB Dual Channel
    • Storage: ~160 GB SSD
    • OS: Windows 10 x64 or Windows 11 x64
    High Preset (Recommended specs)
    • Resolution target FPS: 1440p / 60 FPS
    • CPU: Intel Core i7-11700 or AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
    • GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 Ti / RTX 4070 or AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT
    • RAM: 32GB Dual Channel
    • Storage: ~160 GB SSD
    • OS: Windows 10 x64 or Windows 11 x64
    Epic Preset
    • Resolution target FPS: 2160p / 60+ FPS
    • CPU: Intel Core i7-13700KF or AMD Ryzen 7 7700X
    • GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 or AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX
    • RAM: 32GB Dual Channel
    • Storage: ~160 GB SSD
    • OS: Windows 10 x64 or Windows 11 x64[/quote]
    Nvidia did release a few benchmarks for Stalker 2: Heart of Chornobyl earlier today as well. You can see how some of the 40-series cards handle the game at resolutions of 1080p, 1440p, and 4K with and without the use of DLSS 3 with Frame Generation. In addition to supporting DLSS 3, Stalker 2 will also support FSR for upscaling.

      Good thing you were skeptical before. Tiny bit hopeful, but you knew it seemed unlikely.
