Released earlier this year to console this gritty detective game was lauded for its excellent script, story and indeed, face capture technology. Rockstar have now put a November release date down for PC and released the system requirements.

A staunch couple of GD members have come up with the goods on this one, so thanks to Rongxin and Hellfire_zg. Lets take a look at what system we require to run LA Noire on PC...

LA Noire Minimum System Requirements

OS: Windows XP SP3, Vista SP1, Windows 7

CPU: Intel Dual Core 2.2 GHz / AMD Dual Core 2.4 GHz

RAM: 2 GB

GFX: GeForce 8600 512 MB / Radeon HD 3000 Series 512 MB

HDD: 16 GB

LA Noire Recommended Systemm Requirements

OS: 64-bit

CPU: Intel Quad Core 3.2 GHz / AMD Quad Core 3.2 GHz

RAM: 8 GB

GFX: GeForce GTX 580 1536 MB / Radeon HD 6850 1 GB

Now that is some hefty recommended requirements. As I continue to mention to all those who are starting to panic, games like this and BF3 are built with consoles in mind. So as long as you have a half decent PC you are likely to get very acceptable performance from this game. The brilliance, though, is that any time you upgrade a single component in your PC you will open another door releasing further potential in all of your games. To me that makes PC ownership AWESOME!

Lets have a look at our more realistic figures...

GD Adjusted LA Noire System Requirements

CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 2.66GHz / AMD Athlon II X2 245

RAM: 4 GB

GFX: Nvidia GeForce GTS 150 / ATI Radeon HD 3870
