Can I Run Dead Space?

To meet the Dead Space system requirements, you'll need a gaming PC armed with a quad-core processor that's at least as powerful as the Intel Core i5 6500 or AMD Ryzen 5 2600X, paired with 16GB of RAM. On the GPU side of things, an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 or AMD Radeon RX 5700 should provide plenty of pixel pushing power to get you on board the USG Ishimura. Just don't forget to clear a modest 50GB of space from your SSD too, as hard drives simply don't make the cut here.

Moving up the Dead Space recommended specs, a more powerful CPU akin to the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X or Intel Core i5 11600K will be needed to survive any unwanted performance hiccups. The same goes for graphics cards, with the AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT and Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 creating the new floor for performance. Additionally, developer Motive explicitly recommends using a PCIe NVMe SSD.
