MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries System Requirements

If your PC meets the minimum requirements (Intel Core i3-7100 / AMD Ryzen 3 1200, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 / AMD Radeon R9 280X, 8 GB RAM), you should be able to run the game at lower settings and resolutions. Expect lower framerates and potential performance dips.

The minimum GPU is an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 or AMD Radeon R9 280X. For a smoother experience at higher settings, an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 or AMD Radeon RX Vega 56 is recommended.

At least 8 GB of RAM is required to run MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries. 16 GB of RAM is recommended for optimal performance and smoother gameplay, especially at higher settings.

Running MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries on integrated graphics is not recommended. The game is graphically demanding, and integrated graphics cards typically lack the power needed for a playable experience. You will likely experience very low framerates and significant performance issues.

The 'best' settings depend on your hardware. If you meet the recommended specs, try 'High' or 'Epic'. If you meet the minimum, start with 'Low' and gradually increase settings until you find a balance between visual quality and performance. Pay attention to settings like shadows and effects, as they can significantly impact framerate.
