FX6300 @ 3.5, 8 GB RAM, STRIX overclocked R7 370 w/ 4GB VRAM
Assassins Creed Syndicate has a reasonable pairing of 6GB ram, FX6350 and an R9 200 series with 2gb VRAM.
I do not see how it is possible that Dying Light only requires an HD series graphics card with 1 gb vram and 4gb ram, but requires the 8 core 3.5 FX8320 as a minimum spec.
I'm guessing it has something to do with the reported core utilization issues, so the solution was to throw a better CPU at the game instead of figuring out how to optimize it better?
