Starfield, the hot new game… at least for the next week or two. Now, can your system handle its overwhelming requirements.
What’s up everyone, Erik here and welcome to Hardware For Gamers. For those who are new to the channel, I review and test PC cases, CPU coolers, PC case fans and graphics cards. Before I get into the overview, to have Full disclosure. I got a copy of Starfield when I bought the RX 6750 XT MECH 2X. So, all opinions expressed in this video are mine.
So, If you end up liking the video please hit that thumbs up button. it really helps. Before getting into what I’ve done. I would like to thank my patrons for supporting the channel, Thank you very much. What I’m wanting to do here is show what the performance will be like for those who are at or around the Minimum recommended requirements. If you’re not sure what the Minimum requirements are, I'll have them up on screen now.
