Specs for Minimal levels of performance in Nioh 2

Most software developers publish system requirements, and while they're accurate, they can be difficult to interpret; not everyone's comfortable with the jargon employed and older components are often referred to long after they've left the market.

Here are current specs for pre-built machines capable of handling Nioh 2.

	for Minimal performances
Components	Minimum	Typical
Processor (a.k.a. CPU)	Intel Core i5-10400F or better Intel Core i7-8750H Intel Core i7-10700F	Intel Core i7-9700 Intel Core i7-9700K AMD Ryzen 5 3600X	Alternative CPU Options
Video Card (a.k.a. GPU	Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 or better Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Ti Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060	Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Ti	Alternative GPU Options
Memory (a.k.a. RAM)	6 GB or better	16 GB

Sadly, there are also no predefined standards for performance; some developers have very high standards while others can be a bit optimistic so your mileage may vary.

Ready-to-Order Systems Meeting these Specs Prices range from ∼ US$1190 to US$2090, accessories included.

The following Systems meet the minimal system requirements set by Nioh 2's developers. So it should run the game, but you might need to lower visual quality for an enjoyable experience.

Each product below was checked recently for rebates and availability from retailers located in Canada or which at least makes importing easy.
