CPU not supported?

[Brantes]

Xeon e5 2650 v2
RTX 3060 ti
16gb RAM

I run everything without any problem, if anyone finds a way to circumvent this message, please comment

Xeon e5 2650 with RTX 3060 ti ... really bro ?! ROFLMAO .... worst pairing of a CPU and GPU... PS more cores dont mean crap if they are celeron tier performance for games

not overclocked they're on par with a ryzen 5 1600, overclocked they go up to ryzen 5 2600/i5 10400 performance, they're not celeron tier by any stretch of the imagination and if anything were wildly ahead of their time.

If anything has frame pacing issues it's the older ryzens on multi CCX's, the 1650 has quad channel memory, think DDR5, but i'm not here to defend that guy, he is able to do that himself. I'm just confused by the absolute horrible comments made here with no basis whatsoever. These guys do have a powerful enough system, and they reasonably expect to play the game, nothing wrong with that tbh.

the COPIUM is out of the charts on this one...

Now if only you had an actual chart to back up your BS

I think its pretty obvious there is a whole lot of hot air, not much knowledge and hyperbole being thrown around on this page... I think I will try to summarize.

There is a minimum and recommended specs list on every single game page for a reason. Not just to tell you possible performance you're going to get, but also for compatibility.

game devs have absolutely no responsibility to cater to your CPU architecture, even if it might be bad business for them to do otherwise. They clearly set out the minimum spec - if you go ahead and purchase the game after seeing your PC doesn't reach the minimum spec, you have no right to get angry and bring out pitch forks.

Next, it seems like some people in here like gingerbreadman don't really understand what a Xeon is. For example, the 2620 v2 CPU in question here is literally a 2011 socket CPU that is identical silicon wise to the i7 4960X High-end Desktop CPU that ran on the X77 enthusiast platform.

The only difference between the CPU's are the clock speeds. Both are 6 core, 12 thread CPUs based on the ivy bridge 22nm architecture.

All things considered, for a budget build it is not a bad choice.

The caveat of going with a Xeon for a gaming PC however is that I wouldn't recommend someone with very little computing knowledge to take that plunge because there are a lot of quirks that can come with running a server architecture (especially one from 2014) in a gaming rig - and the typical server motherboards will not come with the same IO and features you'd expect in a gaming board.

I almost feel like the dude is trying to berate him for having an older CPU. Not everyone can afford upgrades. He has what he has - rather than being a ♥♥♥♥, try giving some constructive feedback.

The great news is that since it is a 6 core 12 thread CPU - in newer games that don't require the AVX2 instruction set, you actually should get ok performance as games are scaling better and better with 6 cores. You will definitely be leaving frames on the table with a 3060 ti - but if your display is only 60Hz, you should be totally fine.

Unfortunately unless the devs patch in a fix for older CPU's - you might be out of luck on this game. There is a good chance that they will fix this though. It is definitely possible.

I have 1 question - usually, if the game has AVX, is stated in the system requirements, but there is nothing considering it on the steam page, where did you all got this information about AVX2 specifically?

Intel is a chinese company?
How do you enjoy your Zhaoxin then?

The minimum required CPU i5 4330 and Ryzen 3 1200 does support AVX2. While Xeon E5 2650 does not.

Same issue.... Will wait for a patch within the next days. If doesn't arrive, refund.

Why would there be a patch for a pc that doesn't meet the minimum requirements?

The minimum spec is a AMD Ryzen 3 1200, you're CPU is from a time that there weren't even any Ryzen cpu's

Get a refund or upgrade

well, some ppl are not looking for 120 FPS they just want to play the game like my bro he will play his game even on 20 FPS...

Yeah how about no, either get some numbers or shove it where the sun don't shine.

Ok, here's a comparison about your antique Xeon and a 4 year old i7

https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Xeon-E5-1650-v2-vs-Intel-Core-i7-9700/m7574vsm816180

I especially like the single core performance even though the i7 has a lower clockspeed then your Xeon cpu. If you didn't know, Xeon cpu's are ment for workstations and servers, NOT for gaming.

Having the same problem . The Game doesn't even start saying CPU not supported. I have been able to play all the new games like Cyberpunk 2077 , RDR2 , Spiderman Remastered , Horizon Zero dawn , Days Gone without any problem and which are supposed to be much more demanding and better in graphics than this game. My PC specs is I5 3570 with GTX 1060 . Seems to be a bad port to PC with high CPU requirements made. They should fix this soon .
