Rockstar has provided PC gamers with the system requirements for Max Payne 3. And now my system feels so outdated after a year and a half. The game packs a serious wallop in terms of recommended settings, especially with the suggested graphics cards. On the Nvidia side, Rockstar's recommended card is a GTX 680 2GB and on the Radeon side, it's an HD 7970 3GB.
In terms of processors, check this out:
Intel Dual Core 2.4 GHZ - i7 3930K 6 Core x 3.06 GHZ
AMD Dual Core 2.6 GHZ - FX8150 8 Core x 3.6 GHZ
The highest processors that are recommended include a 6 core and an 8 core processor. That's pretty high, but since it's a range, the game should still run well if you have a processor inbetween.
Max Payne 3 will all be packaged with a whopping file size of 35 GB. And I thought The Force Unleashed and RAGE was high. If you need space, it's time to clean out the fridge.
