Will it run?

[vese91]

Hello everyone! Silent Hill 2 (OG) is one of the best gaming memories of my childhood and I can't wait to play the remake. Since I do not own a PS5 and I'm not planning to get one, I was wondering if my PC is enough to run it at least 1080p - 30 fps.

Windows 10
Gigabyte H170 HD3 MoBo
Intel Core i7 7700 3.60 GHz (Base Clock) 4.20 Ghz (Boost)
RAM 32 GB DDR4 (2133 Mhz)
Storage - SSD 1T
Zotac Nvidia RTX 3060 12 GB Twin Edge

If I well remember, the game runs on Unreal Engine 5. The only game I tested on this PC is Immortals of Aveum and it works just fine at 1080p 60 frames with DLSS on.

We can't answer this with anything other than speculation.

That said, your build does look pretty strong.

Alright, breaking down the official requirements on the store page, your CPU is better than the minimum for sure, you have double the required RAM, you've got a better GPU than the recommended specs, and the SSD is recommended, so you're good there. In general, our builds are roughly on par, so if mine can run it, yours should be able to as well. I hope this is helpful for you. That said of course, this is based around hardware requirements for a game that's not out yet, but the recommended setup says it should allow you to run it at medium at 60 FPS pretty well. :)

Maybe, because the issue is, is that the recommended specs are not 1080p high. It's 60fps 1080p medium. I would say you should be able to run it medium with DLSS. That should get you above the 30fps mark if it's optimized properly.

How will Silent Hill 2 Remake run on my new PC?

[vese91]

Thanks a lot guys! I'm positive about it so let's keep the fingers crossed

[Defective Dopamine Pez Dispenser]

It will certainly run. How well depends on what actual real world performance ends up looking like. We need benchmarks, or we're just speculating. Even the listed specs might not perform as advertised depending upon launch day optimization, and myriad other factors.

That said, if I had to hazard a guess, I suspect a 3060 (being the most used GPU according to Steam, so probably in the ballpark of what they're targeting based on their listed specs and some guesswork) is probably going to target something like Medium settings at 1080p w/DLSS.

That's conservative, but imo makes some sense based on the listed specs and the 3060's perf relative to them. Unless of course, again, the game doesn't perform well at the listed specs and use cases, which remains to be seen. And is why we really need benchmarks to get a better idea.

No chance, you will need at least an Intel P3 with 16 MB RAM and a GTX 260 to get the game started and only on Windows 2000. But seroiusly, what kind of people give serious answers on such nonsense topics ?

In my opinion, it hugely depends on how well the game has been optimized.

We are recently getting lots of games that run terribly even on RTX 4090.

thats normal. as a generation nears it's end to make way for the next, games will come out that previous gen can no longer run maxex out.

1080p 60 medium DLSS you can do it

You mean medium settings + DLSS or just DLSS set on medium level?
