The updated SWBF2 is nearly ready, but checking the origin page showed strict specs. When I examined the processor requirements, I was surprised to see such high demands. Why did they require a 6600K?

I tested the beta smoothly on my i5 6500. The BF1 specs also require a 6600k.

It seems like you might need a faster processor. You could consider upgrading your CPU for better performance.

Unoptimized code is straining processors. It might be early testing, but if it's the final version, could EA have received incentives from Intel for pushing users to upgrade their still-functional i5 models?

This scenario takes place in a digital realm where systems operate with specific configurations. The 6350 aligns with the 6600, and the 8350 pairs with the 6700. The intern likely clarified their specifications, noting the hardware details and performance metrics.

It could be more about needing a CPU capable of handling many threads than the actual performance. The i5 might face some speed issues due to too many threads, which the FX model handles better. These titles were built for 8-core processors.

They probably only tested the cheapest models they had access to, like an FX6350 and a 6600k. Don't rely on basic specs—check real benchmarks. It seems Intel isn’t comparing these CPUs fairly. @Lennart van de Merwe, this isn’t the biggest issue in Battlefield 2. I’d avoid it unless you’re willing to spend $60 for a game that uses random microtransactions (which feel like unregulated gambling).

I didn't propose that. What I meant was that those with older Intel dual/quad cores might assume they need to upgrade to Kaby or Coffee Lake just to keep up with decent gameplay after reading this. They may feel they should invest in new CPUs right away instead of waiting. The comparison between the FX6350 and a 6600k doesn't really benefit either Intel or AMD, so why would I think EA was getting incentives for doing that? It seems like it just hints at people stuck on a limited platform.

It seems more sensible to hold off until EA Access releases it, since I recall the original Battlefield came out there about six months ago.
