I have an i5 and a 1gb DirectX 11 video card. So I guess I might fall on the medium settings side of things. Which is fine as long as I can play it. Also I guess it means 50gb install not 50mb. Pretty big. Definitely bigger than any game i've ever installed. Usually PC games are in between 10 and 25 gigs. I am gonna have to free up a lot of space to install it.
Big words for a next gen game that runs on a 7-year old processor.
Well I guess it all depends on the I7 model we are dealing with here, or if with a 7 yo I7 we can max the game out without bottlenecking the GPU power.
I think that an I7 is fair for an open world game like watch dogs or The Witcher, but for a sports game IMO an I5 should be more than enough, most of all knowing that it is the recommended CPU for next gen games with awesome graphics like Assassins Creed 4.
I'm quite sure that an i5 3570k is much more powerful than X1 and PS4 CPUs right?

Lovely! I'm thinking of trading in my 690 on a Titan Black. I'm stuck with a single slot and the 690 did the trick for gaming. But it stinks at Blender. Two of them? Oh, that would be awesome!
So, when is the last time that a sports game was better on the PC than on the highest end console? There are so many variables when attempting to get a game to run smooth on a PC as opposed to the console version which will be specifically designed to maximize the specs of the specific console. While there may be considerable modding done, only the highest top-spec PCs can run games as smooth as the XBOX one or PS4. Not too mention, I for one prefer my sports games on a huge big screen, not a 24" monitor. Just my two cents....
