LoL! i5 4690k easily can handle with SLI GTX 980. Jesus, what a stupid questions.
Ok so with a 780ti and an i5-4670k(light overclock) at 1440p I would be at medium settings? I dont want my fps to dip below 50 too often.
Err, nope. The big maxwell with 30-40% speed bump over the gtx 980 is on track for 2015, probably still out before TW3.
i will wait for it soNot exactly.. and no need to be rude. The 4690k WILL suffice for TW3, but it also would be the bottleneck for the majority of games for that kind of GPU power provided by GTX 980 sli or other highend multi GPU setups. Not saying you will get bad framerates, they will be excellently playable, still the CPU will limit the frame output.
Apologies man, I just built my new PC recently and am still learning the basics. Thanks for the response.
Thanks for the response, much appreciated dude.
R9 270x has an upgraded clock setup and faster memory, so it's fractionally faster. But anything a 270x can do, a 7870 GHz can do it too.
Screw the PC industry and their expensive devilish engines! I'm done with their imperialism!
On a serious note, I don't mean to screw the fun, but I hope CDP will optimize the game a lil bit for notebook and laptop for example. Or it will mean to exclude a great part of gamers. I think that it's quite demanding, I didn't exactly expect... that much! (even in the min reqs).
Not to mention that nowadays it is more expensive to buy a nice performing PC or v-card than a videogame and not everyone can afford it.
Unless CDP isn't imply that I should join the dark side of the force and... buy a console D:

With those stated requirements, I'm getting a little worried about the 750 and 750Ti. They're 16-ROP (16 processors on the output stage, which do a lot of per-pixel processing) cards when the specified cards are 24-ROP (660) and 32-ROP. They're also short on shaders.
But my stable includes a Core i3 Sandy Bridge with a GTX 750, and I will be among the first to report whether the game is usefully playable on what I think will be a not-too-sub-minimum setup.
I am telling yah those minimums are going to turn out as the high settings, or something ridicules.

God my rig is just a modicum stronger then yours. I am hoping those requirments turn out to be for a very high resolution like 4k
I'm inclined to agree. I think the minimum will be what is needed for satisfactory performance at medium to high settings and reduced resolution. I have a much stronger computer but also that one and several other sub-minimum units that should give me a pretty good picture of what the limiting factors are after the game comes out.
Well you're free to do that, it will save you worrying about hardware requirements for years. But of course you'll pay a lot for games, get to install mods no longer, AND(!) are expelled from the glorious PC gaming race. :troll:
- Computer Case - $50-120
- Motherboard - $100-300
- Processor - $180-300
- Power supply - $100-150
- RAM - $70-140
- Graphics card - $250-350
- Harddrive - $50-200
- Disc drive - $20
- OS - $90
- Mouse and Keyboard - $40-80
Total for a very decent mid to fairly high spec custom PC that will play Witcher 3 at no less than medium: $950-1750
It's not that hard to put together, you just want to go slow doing it your first time. It's definitely a bit nerve-wracking the first time, but once you are done, it's very satisfying and you understand your computer a lot more.
Anyways, there is a thread that goes into more of the finer detail here:

@Валькирия What are your computer's specs?

You know that was the case for metal gear ground zeroes right. The recommended, and minimum were based off 4k resolutions. Now my modest monitor of 1600X900 has allowed me to skirt many a dire system requirement in my time.
