How does my specs compare to the minimum?

Hello, I wanted to hop on the Apex Legends train as I have an interest in the game and I am really getting tired of the Fortnite craze. But, I have a small problem. I cannot run the game above 30 FPS...

A pleasure.
That's a toss up. The 6GB version of the GTX 1060 is a favorite (it's faster than its 3GB counterpart).
The Rx 570 or 580 are nice as they come in 8 GB flavors.
Some may argue that 8GB is overkill for 1080p gaming, but we're seeing more and more games that use A LOT of VRAM when played at high or ultra settings - even at 1080p.
If you are indeed using a 1080p display here, honestly you're golden with either the GTX 1060 or Rx 570/580.
And technically you'd be alright with the (cheaper) 3GB/4GB versions of those cards, but they won't be nearly as future-proof.
