Dark Souls III is releasing on the PC in a few weeks time complete with enhanced graphics and a smoother 60 frames per second. If you're a Dark Souls fan then chances are you are planning on picking up this game, so you may want to check out the PC system requirements to get an idea of what to expect performance-wise.

First off, the developers behind Dark Souls III recommend Nvidia GPUs and have not featured any AMD graphics solutions on the system requirements list. This doesn't necessarily mean AMD users won't get a good experience but it is something worth knowing before getting the game.

From Software's Minimum System Specifications:

• OS: Windows 7 SP1 64-bit, Windows 8.1 64-bit, or Windows 10 64-bit
• Processor: Intel Core i5 2500 3.1 GHz or AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz
• Memory: 8 GB RAM
• Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 750 Ti
• DirectX: Version 11
• Storage: 20 GB available space

From Software's Recommended System Specifications:

• OS: Windows 7 SP1 64-bit, Windows 8.1 64-bit, or Windows 10 64-bit
• Processor: Intel Core i7 2600 3.4 GHz or AMD FX-8350 4.0GHz
• Memory: 8 GB RAM
• Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970
• DirectX: Version 11
• Storage: 20 GB or more available space

From Software hasn't made mention of what sort of performance to expect from the recommended system specification but one would hope that it targets 60 frames per second at high details.
