Minimum and recommended PC requirements
NBA 2K21 is a relatively new title released in late 2020, and it also has improved graphics which in some cases become quite realistic. However, the title is quite optimized and as we will see below the requirements are not too high, although we also tell you that for some reason the hardware recommended by the developer is not enough to run the game at full capacity at 4K resolution, but only at Full HD resolution (for this reason, we add a third column to the table with our recommendation in this regard).
| Minimum requirements (1080p at 30 FPS) | Recommended Requirements (1080p @ 60 FPS) | Maximum requirements (4K at 60 FPS) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Processor | Intel Core i3-530 AMD FX-4100 |
Intel Core i5-4430 AMD FX-8370 |
Intel Core i7-8700 AMD Ryzen 5 2600X |
| Memoria RAM | 4GB | 8 GB | 16 GB |
| Graphic card | GeForce GT450 1 GB Radeon HD 7770 1 GB |
GeForce GTX 770 Radeon R9 270 |
GeForce RTX 2060 Radeon RX 5700 |
| Storage | 80 GB | 80 GB | 120 GB |
| Operating system | Windows 7, 8.1 or 10 by 64 bits | Windows 7, 8.1 or 10 by 64 bits | 64-bit Windows 10 |
First of all, we warn you that in the technical requirements expressed by the developer there is a very important error, namely that they recommend 80 GB of storage when downloading the game only. occupies almost 100 GB, that’s why in the third column we put 120 GB. Also, considering the size of the game and the time needed for loading screens, we strongly recommend that you use an SSD.
Leaving that aside, as you can see, the title isn’t demanding in terms of PC hardware, and in fact if you have a 1080p monitor it would be worth it with a gaming PC from there. has many years without any problems. The biggest requirement, as we have already said, is storage in this case, because it is a game that takes up a lot of space and with long loading screens, no more and no less.
