The Witcher 2 is unmistakably gorgeous, it’s quite possibly the best looking PC game we’ve seen to date, especially as far as fantasy RPGs go. But enough gushing, what sort of hardware will you need to max it at full tilt? Well, if the system requirements obtained via Polish site Polygamia are indication, an extensive upgrade may not be necessary.

Mid-tier rigs comfortably fall in line with the “recommended” spec sheet.

Recommended specs Processor: Intel Quad Core or AMD equivalent

Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce 260, 1 GB memory / Radeon HD 4850 with 1 GB memory

Memory: 3 GB for Windows XP / 4 GB for Windows Vista and Windows 7

Hard Disk: At least 16 GB of free space Minimum specs Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.2 GHz or AMD equivalent

Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce 8800, 512 MB memory or ATI equivalent

Memory: 1 GB for Windows XP / 2 GB for Windows XP

Hard Disk: 8 GB for the game installation and 8 GB for bonus materials

Fairly reasonable, we’d say. Developed by CD Projekt, The Witcher 2 hits PC exclusively this May.
