Essentially ancient and below what they should be, I'm sure. I figured that since DOS2 was running on Ultra and most newer games were running on High that it wasn't going to be an issue, I bought the game out of excitement because I was finally getting to play a new Baldur's Gate entry after having fallen in love with the first two when I was a teen 20 years ago. Obviously my fault and I should have read the requirements, but I don't have the money or the means to do anything about that now. So I'm just looking for hope that my woes will mostly get cleared up by many patches and a full release. Specs are as follows:
Radeon RX560
AMD FX 6300 six-core 3.5 GHz
12 GB RAM (I had 8 but stuck 2 2GB sticks in there that I had laying around because I figured more is better, and it seems to have helped?)
Ok, there is the problem. Your Mobo and card are solid, your RAM is the problem.
You want 16GB of ram for BG3 - we have seen the issue before with 8GB not being quite enough even though it is listed as minimum.
But the problem is compounded because you are not running your ram as dual channel 4 x 4 would be what you want, as 2 x 2 and 2 x 4 can cause some slowdown especially if you are dealing with different types of RAM. Ideal RAM is same type, spec, model, brand across the board with no deviation.
The recommended specs for BG3 is 16GB ram. See below:
CPU: Intel i7 4770k / AMD Ryzen 5 1500X
RAM: 16 GB
OS: Windows 10 64-bit
VIDEO CARD: Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB / AMD RX580
PIXEL SHADER: 5.1
VERTEX SHADER: 5.1
FREE DISK SPACE: 150 GB
DEDICATED VIDEO RAM: 3072 MB
