This is what you’ll need to run, or rather race Need for Speed on PC

If Ghost Games’ recent post is anything to be believed, the wait between the original release of Need for Speed and its PC release, launching March 15^th, is well worth it.

Now sporting an unlocked frame rate, support for 4K resolution as well as a number of visual tweaks besides, Ghost Games seem fairly confident we’ll love the additional effort made – we hope so.

For those wondering if they’ll even be able to play it, Ghost Games and EA have released its hardware requirements.

Minimum Requirements for 720p30 at low settings:

OS: 64-bit Windows 7 or later
CPU: Intel Core i3-4130 or equivalent with 4 hardware threads
Memory: 6GB RAM
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti 2GB or AMD Radeon HD 7850 2GB
Hard Drive: 30 GB free space

Recommended Requirements for 1080p60 at high settings:

CPU: Intel Core i5-4690 or equivalent with 4 hardware threads

For those of you who can’t wait, don’t forget that EA is still giving away Need for Speed Most Wanted away for free on Origin.
