I already posted this on the hardware forums but i think you guys would agree, I see atleast 8 people a week complaining their computers arent getting good fps or just straight up dont run the game. While it is technically their fault for not even checking, I think CIG should probably put something big and noticeable on the front page along the lines of "hey man, I know you are super stoked for this game but take a minute and look at these requirements because frankly your pc probably cant run it. heres another link to the hardware section where the nice people will help you decide on an upgrade plan"
The requirements suggest using an AMD GPU with R9 390 support. It seems only future-compatible cards can handle this game at ultra settings.
This page details the specifications of the AMD Radeon R9 390 graphics card.
And when you click buy, you're directed to a 295x2 listing on Amazon... Haha
I don't understand why some folks grumble, I run Star Citizen 60fps at 1080p with low settings on an i5-650 and a 7850 4GB RAM.
SC is currently in the Alpha phase, meaning hardware needs may change with upcoming updates. CIG hasn’t established a specific hardware requirement for the game yet. If someone who promised to play SC can’t run it now but bought a package hoping otherwise, they’re responsible for not checking their system’s capability before buying.
