Need help knowing if i can run these games.... before i buy them. (new to pc) specs below.

[PointNorth]

I'm just curious if I can run games like Rust, Bannerlord, Planet Zoo. Etc. Stable.

CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3570K CPU @ 3.40GHz
RAM: 8 GB
GPU: Radeon RX 570 Series 4 GB

Any replies would be appreciated. Cheers

It looks pretty good, though the 8gb Ram might be a bit of an overall issue.

This is one site among many that have benchmarks and comparisons for you.

thank you so much. im looking to upgrade my ram right away to 16 gb

so far this setup has ran Hitman 2 and arma 3 quite well. as well as warzone on medium-high settings.

Always look up the game's options too - some games might behave really well but others not so much, and that's because the engines that they're coded on vary considerably.

But yeah 16gb ram should be terrific for that setup overall.

Very low-end system, you won't run any modern game, and the Planet games need like 12+GB RAM don't they?

You might barely run Rust.

Not according to the sites I saw. It benchmarked quite well on it. It's not a high-end machine. But it's not garbage at all.

I Dont find it to be garbage at all... it ran hitman 2, arma 3, and call of duty warzone. All pretty well.

surprising you run COD Warzone, but it's also the first COD they optimized since Modern Warfare 1.

Anyways, buy the games and you have 2 hours to test to see if they run well, but I think Rust will be the only thing you'll run out of those, lots of ppl even with rtx 2080 ti have problem with bannerlords right now.

^^ that's true, I was only really looking at Rust - Bannerlords has been the prevailing game of complaint since they just did whatever promotional this week.

There is a site, "can you run it" that provides all the details for new releases. The computer seems fine, also you can refund after you buy them and for rust you definetly need an ssd to load in 3 mins not 15 mins
EDIT: You can refund the games if you bought them from steam, not a third party website and you need to have less than 2 hours on it

CYRI is ... okay for a very VERY broad overview. It is NOT current, and does NOT help with things like detailed information about what can be bought or upgraded. It works for very very baseline information. But that means "it cannot because this component doesn't meet this minimum", but not necessarily "if I want to get a better result what can I do". it's a yes/no at best. There are dozens of other and much better, updated, sites. I still do look at CYRI but not with any frequency.

Well for most games i check out the requirements provided on steam but if its a game thats not on steam i go for can you run it
