Doom Eternal PC Spec Requirements Revealed

Doom Eternal fans have been ready to rip and tear since the game was announced at E3 2018. There’s just one last question for those of us who prefer to slay our demons on PC: What are the PC system requirements? Bethesda has finally revealed what minimum and recommended settings you’ll need to play Doom Eternal at its best.

Doom Eternal can conceivably hit 1,000 frames per second. That comes with a pretty steep cost in terms of GPU power.

Recommended PC Specs for Doom Eternal

• Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system

• OS: 64-bit Windows 10

• Processor: Intel Core i7-6700K or better, or AMD Ryzen 7 1800X or better

• Memory: 16 GB RAM

• Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 (8GB), RTX 2060 (8GB) or AMD Radeon RX Vega56 (8GB)

• Storage: 50 GB available space

Most notably, Doom Eternal’s minimum GPU settings are what Doom 2016 had for a recommended spec list. If you’re going with the minimum settings, you should still be able to get 1080p and 60 frames per second on the game’s lowest settings. If you’re shooting for a higher FPS rate and sharper graphics, the recommended settings will let you play at 1440p and 60 FPS.

Remember that you’ll be doing it while listening to composer Mick Gordon’s heavy metal choir, featuring the harsh vocal talents of numerous artists, including the late Nature Ganganbaigal (Tengger Cavalary), James Dorton (Black Crown Initiate), Sven de Caluwe (Aborted), Tony Campos (Static X and Ministry), Linzy Rae (The Anchor) and more.
