Civilization 7 PC System Requirements

Despite the graphical leap, Civilization 7 is not really demanding in terms of hardware resources. It may only become more critical if you intend to make ends meet with 4K resolution at maximum details. Civilisation 7 requires at least an Intel i3-10100 CPU or an AMD Ryzen 3 1200 CPU. You should also have at least 8 GB of RAM in your PC. Suitable graphics cards for getting started are an NVIDIA GTX 1050, an AMD RX 460 and also an Intel Arc A380 or similar comparable cards.

The recommended configuration for meanwhile settings also remains within the tolerable range. However, if Civ7 is to run at 4K/UHD with at least 60 FPS at high settings, it should ideally be an Intel i7 14700F or an AMD Ryzen 9 5950X CPU. An RTX 4070 or an RX 7800 XT would be good for 4K operation.

Before you jump into the game, as always we'd recommend making sure you have the latest drivers for your Graphics Card to ensure the smoothest experience at release - AMD / Nvidia.
