Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 open beta begins in a few days on PlayStation with the other platforms receiving access to the game next week. However, if you want to play the beta on PC, you might be worried about the system requirements of the game.

Hopefully, the official pc system requirements table is now out for Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, and it seems like the beta is pretty low-spec friendly based on today's standards.

Long story short, you can play the Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 beta with a 3rd-gen Core-i5 CPU and a GeForce GTX 960. While it does sound surprising, especially with the showcases we saw from the game back in Summer Game Fest, it seems at least the beta is well-optimized.

For the recommended system, Infinity Ward encourages players to run the game with a GeForce GTX 1060 coupled with a 4th-gen Core-i7 processor. As it stands out, the beta version will probably not feature ray-tracing as the recommended system already offers a non-RTX graphics card.

The file size of the beta will be around 25 GB and you are going to need at least 8 GB of RAM. Below, you can check out the full list of system requirements:

Minimum:
OS: Windows 10 (64 bit)
CPU: Intel Core-i5 3570 or AMD Ryzen 5 1600X
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 960 or AMD Radeon RX 470
Video Memory: 3 GB
Graphic Drivers: Nvidia 516.79 or AMD 21.9.1
RAM: 8 GB
Storage Space: 25 GB
Sound Card: DirectX Compatible
Misc: A stable network connection as well as a DirectX 12-compatible system are required

Recommended:

PC players who have already pre-ordered Modern Warfare 2 will get access to the beta from September 22. On the other hand, if you want to play the beta for free, you will have almost three days from September 24 to September 26. The beta will be available on both Steam and BattleNet launchers.
