Well at least their not asking for 6gb of gfx memory,that one scared quite a few ppl.


6GB is an OPTION.  I applaud those devs for allowing people to take full advantage of their hardware.  If you only have 2GB then it is fine, medium settings will look great!

What I meant was that, a 6gb option is nothing more than a lie,saw a guy playing at 1600p the game only used 5.2gb with the ultra texture pack instead of the advertised 6gb for 1080p, I have two really powerful systems,the one a use for 4k it's an i7-4790k at 4.8 and GTX 780ti Classified tri sLI at 1300,thats a lot of raw power but even I was scared by those false spec requirements since those 780ti only have 3gb of memory, and even when the game realeased, it didn't even support sli, had to force it with the driver,also many ppl were experiencing fps dips, myself included turns out it was the in game v-sync,forced it with the dirver dips were gone.

So my point is,if devs spend more time optimizing the game, instead of creating false system requirements, they would turn out so much better. 


1) I mean yes better optimization should be standard, not requested at this point.

2) Still, That game was using 5.2GB of memory to show off some crazy high-rez textures and that is good.  The PS4 isn't holding PC gaming back at all, it is allowing developers to finally utilize those 3GB cards we have had for years.  Now the minimum requirement for PC gaming in 1080p will be a 7870, deal with it people (Not directed at you personally).

<--turned on Ultra res textures with a 1GB 6870 card game ran between 14-22FPS in 1080P everything else pretty much maxed!, point is it worked so id imagine a 7870 would of handled it just fine but the thing is i cant notice any dif between high and ultra textures in SoM so i think it will be awhile before 7870 will end up becoming min spec since my card still hasnt hit a wall yet and i have not needed to run 1 game in low settings so far and i can bet you it will end up being the same for AC:U unless they give the game a very shitty port.


LOL don't imagine anything.  There are already benchmarks that confirm a 3GB 780 Ti had massive stuttering problems with Ultra, although they said a 760 could somewhat handle high.
