Short answer
The useful part first.
Both official tiers require a 64-bit Windows PC, 16 GB RAM, DirectX 12, broadband internet, and 30 GB of storage. The minimum GPU tier is an RTX 2060 Super or RX 6600 XT; recommended is an RTX 3060 Ti or RX 6900 XT.

What the upscaling notes mean
The minimum target is not described as native-resolution 1080p. Steam pairs it with 71% TSR or DLSS Ultra Performance. The recommended target uses either 100% TSR at High settings or DLSS Balanced. A page that promises native 1080p/60 from the minimum GPU is going beyond the official specification.
Does meeting the list guarantee a locked 60 FPS?
No. The official performance updates say large battles can expose different CPU, GPU, and server bottlenecks, and that optimization continues after launch. The listed hardware is a store target, not a guarantee for every map, player count, driver, and graphics combination.
Before buying for PC
- Compare both your CPU and GPU; a stronger GPU does not remove a CPU or server bottleneck.
- Keep more than 30 GB free for downloads, patches, and temporary installation space.
- Check the final-build performance page after launch instead of relying on playtest-only benchmark videos.
