Blizzard just announced the systemrequirements for DiabloIV, and it looks like an unexpected upgrade might be needed.

Diablo IV is joining the growing list of games that require copious amounts of RAM. The question is: Are you going to need to upgrade your PC?

Not too long ago, 16GB of RAM was considered to be plenty for gaming purposes. It seems that these days, game devs are slowly pushing that number up to 32GB, making it the new amount to aim for. Diablo IV serves to prove that theory. To run the game at low graphics settings, at 1080p native resolution, and hit 30 frames per second , all that’s needed is an Intel Core i5-2500K or an AMD FX-8350 CPU, 8GB of RAM, and an Nvidia GTX 660 or an AMD Radeon R9 280. Even with such outdated components, you’re still expected to have an SSD with at least 90GB of storage space.

In order to run Diablo IV at 4K and with ultra graphics settings and still hit 60 fps, you need at least an Intel Core i7-8700K or AMD Ryzen 7 2700X CPU, a whopping 32GB of RAM, and an Nvidia RTX 3080 or AMD RX 6800 XT. To maximize your experience, Blizzard recommends an RTX 40-series graphics card for fully supported DLSS 3.
