I’m thinking about grabbing Helldivers 2 for my PC but I want to double-check how well it’ll run before making the purchase. I already own it on PS5 but I’m not too bothered about starting from scratch. My main concern is performance, as I’m not super confident about my PC know-how. I’ve got an AMD Ryzen 5 7600X3D CPU and an AMD Radeon RX 7800XT GPU, but sometimes my rig has issues running lighter games on max settings. So, can I expect decent performance playing Helldivers 2 with my setup?

Your current setup should handle Helldivers 2 just fine! Given that Helldivers 2 is more GPU-intensive, your RX 7800XT is robust enough for Ultra settings, likely giving you at least 60 FPS. Also, your CPU is actually above the game’s recommended specs, so you’ll be in good shape.
If you’re worried, take advantage of Steam’s refund policy. You can try the game out and as long as you haven’t played more than 2 hours, you can return it if it’s not running well. It’s a good way to test how it performs without risking your wallet.
Honestly, your components should power through most modern games. With your setup, performance hiccups typically point to game-specific optimization issues. In other words, your GPU is solid, and if a game doesn’t run well, it might be due to the game itself rather than your hardware.
Based on your specs, you should be more than capable of handling Helldivers 2. I run a similar setup and achieve 60-80 FPS at 1080p max settings. You might need to adjust if you’re aiming for higher resolutions like 1440p, but you’ll definitely find good performance at 1080p.
