Hi everyone, I'm checking out this game but my system is a few years old. I wasn't sure if boosting the CPU would help me play at 900p with decent graphics. I have an i5 660 and an R7 260X. The graphics card seems too weak, but I've seen some good videos using it with a newer CPU. I'd rather avoid a game that won't run smoothly and don't have the funds for a full upgrade right now. Thanks, Jake.

It's definitely possible to reach 900p with a modest overclock.

900p is certainly achievable. Likely around medium to high.

You should be fine running at 900p with that configuration. The processor might have a minor issue under heavy load, especially during complex physics interactions. Overall, it should manage the game well—enjoy!

He handled Battlefield Front quite well with his 3570k and 560ti. The 560ti matches the performance of the 260x, while his CPU is only slightly quicker than the i5 660. He also ran at 900p. You should be fine too—just maybe turn off antialiasing if you want a smoother experience.

Thank you for your prompt responses. I'm feeling much more confident about completing this now.
