Recommended settings mentions Nvidia GTX 1070?

[HistoryPlayer]

I thought requirements were not so high for a remastered game from 2004 and as I have seen in some youtube videos, the graphics don't look better than Rome 2 even Shogun 2. Unit details, terrain and building still look impressive but I feel that a Nvidia GTX 1070 is too much, I was expecting something between Rome 1 and Rome 2, I was wrong, even Attila and Thrones of Brittania are not as demanding.

It's recommended rather than required, the required settings still being low.

Probably more to do with the fact that a higher percentage of people are running higher resolutions than they were.

Poor me running a 2600K and a overclocked GTX 1650 , I can run Rome 2 to full max to bad its not even playable without DEI which requires a NASA computer , I might actually have to finally upgrade .
You can overclock a 1650 to the level of a 1680 easy and even further for some and you don't have to be a super techno nerd , I am bottlenecked hard by my 2600K and RAM but if your running a modern board that can take modern RAM and Processors its a 200$ card
1650 = 200$ overclocked superior in every way to a 1070
1050 Ti overclocked = 50 $ pretty close to a 1070

Lowest required is NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 2GB.

GTX1070 for 4K and the largest unit size I guess.

The difference between those GPUs is rather big.

The recommended card is a 5 year old GPU, which means the minimum will be even older. That's pretty good for a brand new game.

This isn't a brand new game, it's a slight touch up on a 17 year old game.

Anyway i'm guessing those recommended system reqs are to run the game in 4k.

I just ordered some pre built junk box with I-3 10100 and a modern board for 350 $ , Need to upgrade the RAM to 16 GB , so I should be running it as well as the Nasa computer streamers for 400$ , So even if you had to start from scratch you can be running a
I-3 10100
2666 mhz memory 16 gb
1650 overclocked to a 1680
All this for 500-600 $ , and it will run TW games as well as any 2000-3000 $ pre built

the specs listed are ridiculous.

RECOMMENDED:
Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
OS: Windows 10 64-bit (version 20H2)
Processor: Intel Core i7-4770K 3.5GHz or AMD Ryzen 5 2600X 3.6GHz
Memory: 8 GB RAM
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 8GB or AMD Radeon RX VEGA 56 8GB
DirectX: Version 11
Storage: 70 GB available space

1070 for any remastered game from 2004? and 70gb? this cant be right.

People.... What GPU you need heavily depends on what resolution you are playing the game. I had a GTX 970 once, it could run EVERYTHING in FullHD (1920x1080) at 60 FPS+. I can't imagine that Rome Remastared will be different.

Very true. I have a GTX1080 and 1080p resolution. This 5 year old beast still shreds anything I throw at it.

The lowest specs are a GTX660 which is a 9 year old card. Most people will be able to play this without any problems.

I wouldn't expect too much from an i3. You could've better gone for an older i5 or i7 since those are better build for gaming application.

gtx 1070 is for 4K 60fps with high/ultra settings.

[Dr.Schmeisser]

Relax, GTX 1070 is for 4K 60fps, not 1080p

I highly doubt it. 1070 is too weak for 4K in any game.

I canceled that after seeing some unexpected lower prices
I-5 10400 for 200
New Board and Ram 200
Case and Power supply 100
Looks like I'm getting a solid upgrade for 500 $ , last time I priced this it was at least 700
