Watch Dogs creative director confirms specs for running title at Ultra settings

The minimum system requirements to run Watch Dogs on a Windows PC makes the game pretty accessible to anyone with a relatively modern PC (we're talking Intel Core 2 Quad Q8400 or AMD Phenom II X4 940 era hardware). However, the recommended system requirements are quite a bit more demanding, and if you want to run Watch Dogs with Ultra settings, you'll need a GeForce GTX 780 graphics card.

This should be more optimised than previous Ubisoft releases (Assassins Creed 3 springs to mind) as it really has been created for Xbox One and PS4, so should take full advantage of multi-threading (hence the suggestion of 8 cores for max performance)

My R9 290x should perform just as well as the 780, just might miss out on HBAO+
 
This sounds like Battlefield all over again...

Epic engine and sexual graphics. Most of which has now been disabled because it's broken.
 
Again wait and see is the best policy. Before BF4 came out and during it's initial release people, where saying the same thing, fast forward a few months and the game became more optimised.

Same will happen again.
 
Yet to meet a game that can bring my 670 GTX FTW down below 60fps at 1080p :)

I might have to upgrade soon... But I will see if it can hold it's own lol.
