As you can see, the system requirements for Torchlight 2 are fairly modest, our main test system has absolutely no problems playing this title well about the 60FPS threshold with maximum AA and AF, in fact, maximum everything I can think of.

Our APU system was just enough to play the game at around 50FPS, but with only 2x AA and some reduced shadow and specular detail selected from the games option menu. This didn’t really impact gameplay though and it was still perfectly playable. The drop in AA and AF made next to no difference to the game visually on our 2nd system.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
