Hi everyone,

I wanted to get your thoughts on the minimum system requirements for Battlefield 2042. My PC meets them all except one. It says minimum processor i5-6600. I have an i5-4460. Do you think my PC will be able run this game?

Thanks for your feedback.

Hi @BuffaloBilly ,

I would definitely think that you will be all OK with the i5-4460 also!

There are only truly minor incremental differences in the performance data between those two very closely related CPUs, and they will typically not be game changing for your practical usage. (literally here actually.  :o)

You can see various benchmarks of the two lined up together, like here:

What actually is more important then for you is to ensure adequately fast and enough RAM for the CPU to run at its best, without having to have to swap its cached memory etc.  Likewise the performance of your graphic card/processor will most probably be the most important factors for your gaming experience, as your motherboard CPU is already meeting the minimum requirements really.

@BuffaloBilly your PC has various components not only a cpu. 

@BuffaloBillyHave to say one thing though.

BFV and even BF1 struggled a lot on 4 core CPUs. The BF-forums had lots of posts about this problem.

You can perhaps run the game, but it will probably not be a good experience (it was already bad in BF1 and BFV).
