Electronic Arts and BioWare have just revealed the official PC requirements for Mass Effect: Andromeda. PC gamers will need at least a 64-bit operating system, an Intel Core i5 3570 or AMD FX-6350 CPU, 8GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GTX 660 2GB or an AMD Radeon 7850 2GB.
BioWare recommends an Intel Core i7-4790 or AMD FX-8350, 16GB of RAM, and an NVIDIA GTX 1060 3GB or an AMD RX 480 4GB.
Surprisingly enough, the game appears to be supporting only DX11. Mass Effect: Andromeda is powered by DICE’s Frostbite 3 Engine, therefore we were expecting it to support both DX11 and DX12. According to the specs, that won’t be the case. Still there is hope as Battlefield 1’s PC specs didn’t mention DX12 either. Here is hoping that BioWare will surprise everyone and that Mass Effect: Andromeda will support Microsoft’s latest API.
Mass Effect: Andromeda releases on March 21st, and here is the full list of its PC requirements.

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
