Rainbow Six Siege X is not very heavy, but Ubisoft lists an SSD and DirectX 12 for every PC tier. These numbers come from Ubisoft's specs post made for the Siege X launch. Check the Steam, Epic or Ubisoft Connect page before you download, because requirements can change with updates.

Key takeaways

  • Minimum targets 1080p at 60 FPS with 8 GB of RAM.
  • Recommended targets 120 FPS in the core game, 60 FPS in Dual Front.
  • You need 65 GB of SSD space, or 110 GB for the Ultra tier.
  • The game is free to start, but needs a Ubisoft account.

Ubisoft's post contains a couple of typing errors in the Ultra row, so the AMD card name above is our best reading of the intended RX 7900 XT.
