"AMD FX 8350 Wraith"

If you have the old cooler, then the game will work but your ears won't after a while

Nice of them to tell us it will have about 10GB of DLC.
I am looking to be set hardware wise with my 6700k and 390 (which is roughly equal to and in some benchmarks I have seen better then the 480).

55GBs? What the hell? How can a standard FPS game need so much space?
The last one was big at 18GB with all DLC but this is nuts!

I know it's not a direct comparison and doesn't necessarily mean they will perform the same, but I'm surprised the 480 is compared to the 970 in a DX12 game. The 480 should be compared against a 980 or even higher in DX12.

Maybe the recommended requirements are being listed for if you decide use the DX11 version of the game over the DX12 version, in which case I don't think they are wrong since the 480 seems to perform similar to the 970 (but in that case I don't see a reason to recommended Windows 10 and not just say "Windows 7 and up.)"

They want you to play on DX12. Which means W10. Which would be why they recommend W10

True but the point of my comment was to come up with a reason for why they listed the 480 and 970 rather then the 480 and 980 for the recommended requirements. Since in DX11 games the 480 seems to perform around the level of the 970 but in the few DX12 games out their it seems to perform roughly around the level of a 980, though it varies on a game by game basis.

In which case if the requirements are being listed as "You want this hardware if you plan to use the DX11 version of the game" then to me at least their is no point in listing Windows 10 as the recommended OS since the requirements would be for the DX11 version rather then the DX12 version. Though I understand that MS at least wants people to use Windows 10 and DX12 and this may lead to more people switching because they see that a game they are interested in is listing Windows 10 as the recommended OS, but as far as Eidos Montreal & Square Enix are concerned it really doesn't matter.

I don't know why I thought Deus Ex was a DX12/W10 only game... :mellow:

I realise that 55GB is big for a game, but calling it a standard FPS game is just plain wrong. Even Human Revolution has at least 30h more game than something like Battlefield or Call of Duty.
