I'm curious to know about the hardware setup required to run SC in full HD on max details?asked by ten
TL;DRIt's hard to say definitively this early, but they're targeting what will be mid-level hardware at completion, which should easily run highest details at 1080p, while 4K needs very high-end cards.
So that's a really good question. It's hard to definitively say that now 'cause we're still early in the development process.New hardware comes out every year, so generally we've been aiming at the very high end of hardware now is what we think the mid-level will be by the time the game is fully finished. So that would have been a GTX 680 or now a 780 on the Nvidia side, or on the AMD side, a 7970 or now the R9290X on the AMD side. And you should be able to easily run in the highest details in the game in 1080p. If you want to move to 4k, you'll need the very high end cards that will be available, smoothly at 4k that is, next years or maybe current day high-level to mid-high level cards but two of them in SLI.The engine scales really well so it can, it will take whatever you can give it in whatever resolution you give it, but you can also scale it down and it still looks pretty good. So if you don't have quite that highest end hardware, it will still be a pretty good experience. I hope that answers your question.
