Mass Effect Andromeda System Requirements Revealed

Planning on playing Mass Effect Andromeda on PC? This is what you’ll need.

Thanks to a posting on Origin, we now know exactly how beefy of a PC you’ll need to have sex with exotic blue space aliens in Mass Effect: Andromeda.

Here’s the minimum and recommended specs:

MINIMUM SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

OS: 64-bit Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10
PROCESSOR: Intel Core i5 3570 or AMD FX-6350
MEMORY: 8 GB RAM
VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA GTX 660 2GB, AMD Radeon 7850 2GB
HARD DRIVE: At least 55 GB of free space
DIRECTX: DirectX 11

RECOMMENDED SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

OS: 64-bit Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10
PROCESSOR: Intel Core i7-4790 or AMD FX-8350
MEMORY: 16 GB RAM
VIDEO CARD: NVIDIA GTX 1060 3GB, AMD RX 480 4GB
HARD DRIVE: At least 55 GB of free space
DIRECTX: DirectX 11

The minimum specs are quite reasonable, but the recommended ones are quite beefy, asking for one of Nvidia’s fancy new 10 series graphics cards and a core i7. You’ll need a pretty decent chunk of hard disk space: 55 GB, but that’s pretty standard these days. It’s nothing compared to Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare‘s 130 GB.

In other news, BioWare has confirmed that the game has “gone gold,” and is hard at work on a Day 1 patch, though it wouldn’t tell us how big it will be.
