Watch Dogs Minimum PC Specs

Jonathan Morin tweets the minimum requirements for the Windows edition of Watch Dogs, the sandbox action game also known as Watch_Dogs (thanks CVG). He also adds that players going beyond this minimum will be rewarded, saying: "PC on very high setting is REALLY stunning if you ask me. As for density it [is] also very high of course." Here are the specifications:
IntelCore 2 Quad Q8400 2.66Ghz or AMDPhenom II X4 940 3.0Ghz,
6GB RAM, 1024 VRAM DirectX 11 Shader 5.0
SCard: DirectX9
25 GB

I hope so. But who knows, like mentioned below, these guys also said the game looks stunning. The car racing video looked worse than Burnout Paradise, which is what, 6 or 7 years old now?

Looking for, but don't see "Win7/8 64 bit". Damn.
Given that it was posted in a tweet I would assume it was omitted due to the character limit.

If their latest trailers were recorded on the PC than we clearly have a misunderstanding of what stunning really look like.
Agreed.

Isn't that kind of implied with the minimum being 6GB of RAM?

With a minimum requirement of 6GB RAM, you're going to need to be on 64-bit in practice, even if it's not a 64-bit executable.
Do you have a single fact to back that up?

Yeah, geez. My quad core is 3.2ghz and I'm only 4 gigs of ram. time for the mobo/ram/cpu upgrade I suppose.

I'm still running a Core 2 E8400. This has probably been the longest I've gone without a major upgrade or rebuild; still running Vista64 too. Probably because I have had no hardware issues, and software/OS problems have been few, far between and easily fixed. I've really not had any problem with the games I play either. Maybe turning down a few options, but nothing overly noticeable. And yes I realize I have just cursed myself by saying that . I've been seeing a lot of min-specs my setup would have some trouble meeting so I imagine I'll be building a new box within the year. Still working on my steam backlog though, so maybe longer than that hehe.

Looks like it really is time to upgrade my QX6700, but damn that chip has done me proud. Might look into getting a second 680 GTX as well. Really excited for this game.

I had an Q6600 until I upgraded to an Phenom II x6.. what an insanely bad decision that was in retro-perspective... still it serves me well right now (the Q6600 is still on my secondary PC, all that needs right now, direly that is, is a SSD), but the CPU and platform as a whole (mobo/chipset) is showing it's age. Next upgrade is gonna be Nvidia and Intel all the way. But I am waiting till dx12 hits now.... if I upgrade my GPU (670GTX) it's going to be to make VR fluid and smooth. And we'll see what's required for that.

I can't even put into words how sad it makes me that AMD has NOTHING to compete against the I7
