This long-awaited RPG is finally fully released! Make sure your rig is ready and meets the Baldur’s Gate 3 PC requirements.
Baldur’s Gate 3 is finally here in full, and many of us are more than ready for the wait to be over–but what about our computers? If you didn’t start playing in early access, you may be wondering if your computer can handle Larian’s amazing RPG experience before you buy. We’ll break down both the minimum and recommended Baldur’s Gate 3 PC requirements here.
Baldur’s Gate 3 PC requirements – Character holding a magic object.
For an optimal experience, we recommend a PC that at least meets, or hopefully exceeds, the recommended PC requirements. If you meet just the minimum requirements, you should still be able to play, but you’ll likely need to keep the graphics settings on the lower side. The 150 GB installation size is a bit hefty, so you’ll need quite a bit of space.
Minimum Baldur’s Gate 3 PC Requirements
CPU (Central Processing Unit) Intel i5-4690 / AMD FX 8350
GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) NVIDIA GTX 970 / AMD RX 480 (4GB+ VRAM)
RAM (System Memory) 8 GB
Storage 150 GB available space to install (SSD required)
Operating System Windows 10 64-bit

Thankfully, the minimum requirements are not that high for this game, making it more accessible to gamers on a budget or with older rigs. The game calls for a CPU and GPU that are generations behind the latest hardware releases for its minimum specs, and only 8 GB of system memory.
