Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War Performance Analysis

System Requirements
This game has fairly modest minimium requirements, allowing you to get rocking on some 6+ year old hardware, but don’t expect much more than 1080p with the settings dialed right back. It does look like any modest hardware from the last few years should get the job done though.
For competitive play, you’ll want to be running something from the 8700K or 1800X, paired up with at least a VEGA 64 or GTX 1080. Just about anything newer than those will obviously get the job done too, such as the RX 5700 or RTX 2060.
Ray tracing and DLSS will need an Nvidia card, perhaps AMD hardware support will come soon enough though. However, this is very much an Nvidia optimised game and there will be benefits for green team users.
As for Ultra, 4K, RTX, etc, then yeah, you’ll just obviously need the latest and greatest hardware really.
