To add to what @crinrict wrote you should look for a 7th generation (8th is still very expensive) CPU (It says I5/I7 7xxx) RAM should be DDR4. Also look for a SSD drive along with a HDD drive for storage. Or a Hybrid drive.

If you have an AMD graphics card the link is the same.

I have attatched my DxDiag. It doesn't show my processor for some reason but if you scroll down it will. Do i need to update something?

Processor would be important but it might be too low for the game.

 

Does it also not give you a processor in the DxDiag Window itself ?

 

What does it show you when you go to Device Manager (just type device manager in the Windows Search bar) ? There should be processors

Hey there, up until recently my game has run /decent/ but lately its been getting laggier and it's verging on unbearable. What can I do?

Hi @GuruChristina 

 

could you check if there's new drivers for your AMD Card: https://www.amd.com/en/support

 

I think there's newer one for the 8000 series still.

 

You also have quite a few update failures for Windows so could you make sure Windows is all up-to-date.

 

 

 

Good Luck
