Diablo 4 requirements for PC

To run the Diablo 4 system requirements you will need an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 with an i5 processor or similar at minimum and 90GB of HD space available.

The Diablo 4 system requirements are quite demonic if you're looking to play the game on the highest settings. Fortunately, you don't need a beast of a machine in order to get the game up and running on the lower end of the graphics scale. 

The Diablo 4 minimum requirements only call for an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 graphics card or equivalent to play. You'll also need a minimum CPU equivalent to an Intel Core i5-2500K, 8GB of RAM, and a 64 bit version of Windows 10 or later.

But, the developers state that you'll want an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 GPU, an Intel Core i5-4670K CPU, and 16GB of RAM to reach the Diablo 4 recommended specs.

If you're interested in the higher end Diablo 4 requirements, there are some beefier thresholds to cross. The High Spec requirements demand an i7-8700K or AMD Ryzen 2700X CPU and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 or AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT. You'll also need to reserve 90GB of space on your SSD (no hard disk drives here).

But that's not all. For the most graphically awesome rendition of hell, you'll need to upgrade your graphics card to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 and support it with 32GB of RAM in order to see Diablo 4 in 4K resolution at 60FPS. If you're looking to use NVIDIA DLSS 3 tools, you'll even need an NVIDIA RTX 4070.
