GTA 6 vs WARDOGS vs Fable: Which Needs the Biggest PC Upgrade?

Same hardware, four games, four different scores. Here's exactly where a mid-range and a stronger PC land against each game's own Minimum and Recommended thresholds.

Estimated: GTA 6, Fable and Metro 2039 figures use our researched prediction (no official PC specs exist yet). WARDOGS figures use Steam's official published requirements. See our Methodology for how each is sourced.

Same PC, four different verdicts

We ran the exact same two builds through our ReadyScore™ formula against all four upcoming/current games we track. The differences come entirely from each game's own Minimum and Recommended thresholds, GTA 6 and Fable are the most forgiving, Metro 2039 is the most demanding once RAM comes into play.

Build A: RTX 4060-class GPU, Ryzen 5 7600-class CPU, 16GB RAM, SSD
GameReadyScore™Verdict
WARDOGS83/100Playable
GTA 679/100Playable
Fable75/100Playable
Metro 203964/100Playable

None of the four reach our "Ready" tier (85+) with this build, WARDOGS gets closest because its Minimum tier sits far below its Recommended tier, giving a mid-range GPU more room to score well.

Build B: RTX 4070-class GPU, Ryzen 7 7700X-class CPU, 16GB RAM, SSD
GameReadyScore™Verdict
GTA 690/100Ready
Fable90/100Ready
WARDOGS90/100Ready
Metro 203977/100Playable

At this tier, three of four games hit Ready. Metro 2039 still lags because its Recommended RAM is 32GB, not 16GB like the other three, the GPU and CPU alone aren't enough to close that gap.

The one upgrade that matters most if you play more than one of these

If Metro 2039 is anywhere on your list, 32GB of RAM is the single upgrade that changes the most across your whole library, it's the only one of the four where 16GB actively caps your score below Ready even with strong GPU and CPU. For the other three, 16GB is genuinely sufficient at their Recommended tier.
