We're pleased to say that Advanced Warfare bucks the trend. A typical enthusiast gaming PC - featuring something like a Core i5 quad-core processor paired with a £150 graphics card like the GTX 760 - is capable of excellent results.Īll of which made us wonder - how low can we go with PC hardware to get a 1080p experience equivalent to that offered by the PlayStation 4? In terms of raw computational power, a wealth of PC components have the better of the new wave of consoles, but actually finding multi-platform games that make the most of those parts isn't easy. When we looked at the computer version of Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare in last week's Face-Off, we were impressed with the ease with which we could attain the 'proper' Call of Duty experience - 1080p at a highly consistent frame-rate with lavish quality settings.

We're going to be reading - and indeed, probably writing - a lot about PC optimisation over the next few days, but for every negative, there tends to be a positive, and we wanted to show that key developers are pushing the boat out to bring us some decent PC work.
