CPU compatibility?

[Squidsheep]

My pc is VR ready, that clear, but after looking at the minimum requirements, I'm concerned my CPU would not be able to run it.

Its an 8 core AMD FX-8350

[Goif!]

I'll agree that the recommended CPU is pretty top of the line.
Nothing wrong with that with how detailed the game will be, but it does make me fear a bit, especially after already dropping 1k for VR.

I'm gonna be (trying) to use a i7 6700k. I wish you luck.

My CPU is a 6700k, seems to work pretty well for VR. Not sure how well AMD CPUs work for VR, but 8 cores ought to be good. If it has more than 3.5ghz, I think it will be fine or maybe even great.

The issue is, that Boneworks will probably be very CPU intensive. I know for a fact my CPU can run VR, but all of the Physics simulations, is a whole other issue.

i7 4790, it probably wont run the best, but still relatively fine

When I read recommended, I see that as the amount you need for it to run at average quality, and required for it not to melt entirely. If the issue was graphics card, then fine, turn down the graphics settings.

But this is CPU. The Either I lose the full experience of Boneworks, or there is no option to change physics at all. If my CPU is below recommended, but above required, it is unlikely I can play the game without major issue.

You don't read requirements all that well then, every high-end vr game runs fine for me

Yes, but Boneworks is different. The amount of processing power required, for all these very advanced physics simulations, AI reactions ect, is much larger than a usual VR game.

As I have said, my CPU is VR ready. The question, is if it is BONEWORKS ready.

[Krissy]

But can it run Crysis?

[Caldor]

Its not that intensive to run these physics. Its good physics, but it should be fine to have a quad core CPU like the i7 6700k. But also physics are often good at utilizing multi-core CPUs, so having 8 cores should help.

Hey does boneworks work for amd processors? I am curious because on the specs list it does not mention equivalent or any such thing like that

[Lavarious]

The fx 8350 has a very hard time running almost any VR title without framedrops. I would be very surprised if you could run this at a playable state.

No


I have it, it can run 120hz VR on most games with no issues.

You may have the odd drop here and there, but your AMD FX 8350 will be plenty fine for this OP. @90hz ofc

I highly doubt that because I had a FX 8350 when I started on VR and with a decent OC it would not hold 90fps stable in games like raw data and h3vr. There's no way in hell unless you've got some kind of 5ghz stable OC that your holding 120fps. Not happening. lol

EDIT: I would try the game and see if you can handle it with some reprojection. As long as you've got some decent VR legs and reprojection doesn't end you then you might be able to.

quick question can my amd ryzen 3 3100 4-core processor cpu and my rx 6600 run boneworks?
