Why go high-end for FC 27?
You don't need an expensive gaming PC just to play FC 27.
EA publishes specifications covering everything from entry-level hardware upwards. But there's a big difference between buying a PC that meets the requirements and buying one that gives you significant performance headroom.
That's where these systems come in.
More graphics headroom
A more powerful graphics card gives you greater flexibility when increasing resolution and graphical quality.
FC 27's PC graphics options are designed to let players configure their experience according to their hardware, including higher-end presets for more capable systems.
High-refresh-rate gaming
If you've invested in a 144Hz, 165Hz, 240Hz or similarly high-refresh-rate monitor, a powerful gaming PC can help you get more from it.
For competitive football gaming, smooth motion and responsive gameplay can make your display feel very different from a standard 60Hz setup.
More than just FC 27
You're not buying a PC for one game.
The i9-14900KF and GPUs featured across these four systems provide a powerful foundation for your wider PC gaming library.
Whether you're playing FC 27 one night and jumping into a demanding AAA title the next, these machines are built to handle considerably more than the minimum requirements.
Ready for what's next
Gaming hardware moves quickly.
Buying a PC with additional performance headroom means you're not building your entire system around today's minimum specification.
Instead, you're investing in a machine designed to remain capable as new games arrive and your expectations increase.
Get ready for FC 27
Whether you're returning to Ultimate Team, starting a new Career Mode or simply looking forward to getting back on the pitch, FC 27 is a great time to upgrade your PC gaming setup.
And if you're going to make the jump to a new machine, why build around the minimum?
Our range of high-end Intel Core i9 gaming PCs gives you the processing power, memory, storage and graphics performance to make the most of FC 27 – with plenty left over for everything else in your gaming library.
The new season starts now. Make sure your PC is ready.
