TL;DR recommendations
- 1080p (144–240Hz shooters): RTX 5060 Ti 16GB or RX 9060 XT, fast 6–8-core CPU, 32GB DDR5.
- 1440p (High/Ultra 120–165 FPS): RTX 5070 Ti 16GB or RX 9070 XT, 8-core CPU, 32GB DDR5.
- 4K (High/Ultra 90–120 FPS with upscaler): RX 9070 XT (value) or step up as needed; 8-core CPU, 32–64GB DDR5.

Recommended specs by resolution (Singapore, 2025)
1080p Competitive (144–240Hz)
| Part | Recommended (SG-available, current-gen) |
|---|---|
| CPU | Strong 6–8 cores with high boost (e.g., latest Ryzen 7 / Core i7 class) |
| GPU | RTX 5060 Ti 16GB (streams/low latency) or RX 9060 XT (AAA value) |
| RAM | 32GB DDR5 (6000–6400 MT/s class, EXPO/XMP on) |
| Storage | 1–2TB NVMe Gen4 (add a 2nd NVMe if you record gameplay) |
| Motherboard | Mid-tier board with good VRM & 2× M.2 |
| PSU | Quality 80+ Gold 750–850W (native 12VHPWR if Nvidia) |
| Cooling | Air Cooler or AIO depends on budget |
| Target feel | Capped 141/237 FPS with VRR on, flat frametimes |
Why this works: At 1080p high refresh you’re often CPU-limited; the fast 6–8-core focus + stable FPS cap keeps input latency low.
1440p High/Ultra (120–165 FPS)
| Part | Recommended (SG-available, current-gen) |
|---|---|
| CPU | 8 cores / 16 threads (or 8P+E-cores) |
| GPU | RTX 5070 Ti 16GB or RX 9070 XT (best value band for 1440p & even entry 4K) |
| RAM | 32GB DDR5 |
| Storage | 1–2TB NVMe Gen4 |
| PSU | 850W Gold (headroom for transient spikes) |
| Cooling | Air Cooler or AIO depends on budget |
| Target feel | 120–165 FPS on High/Ultra with upscaler: Quality |
Why this works: 1440p is the BF “sweet spot” for clarity + speed. 5070 Ti ↔ 9070 XT are the current value kings for this lane.
4K High/Ultra (90–120 FPS with upscaler)
| Part | Recommended (SG-available, current-gen) |
|---|---|
| CPU | Modern 8-core with strong boost (don’t overspend here) |
| GPU | RX 9070 XT (value 4K with upscaler) — step up if you want native-4K Ultra everywhere |
| RAM | 32–64GB DDR5 if you edit/record |
| Storage | 2TB NVMe Gen4 (fast game drive) |
| PSU | 850–1000W Gold (depending on GPU tier) |
| Cooling | 280/360 AIO or high-end air + mesh case |
| Target feel | 90–120 FPS at 4K with upscaler: Quality/Balanced |
Why this works: At 4K, GPU does the heavy lifting; a solid 8-core is enough. The 9070 XT punches above its price with upscalers.
FAQ
1080p or 1440p for BF6?
If you play competitive modes: 1080p/240 or 1440p/144–165 with a stable cap feels amazing. For cinematic campaigns: 1440p High/Ultra is a great balance.
Is 32GB RAM enough?
Yes for gaming/streaming. Go 64GB only if you edit heavy footage on the same rig.
Do I need watercooling?
Not required. A good air tower or 240/280 AIO is enough. If you want silence + showcase, see Custom Loop PCs: Pros, Cons & Who Should Get One.
