The recommended PC specs for Batman: Arkham Knight have just been updated, and if your rig is sporting an AMD graphics card, you're going to want to make sure that you can still run the game before you cough up your hard-earned cash.

The significant change is that now players on PC who fall on the AMD side of the graphics card divide will need a Radeon HD 7950 or better, with at least 3GB of memory.

"There are some known issues with the performance of Batman: Arkham Knight for PC owners using AMD graphics cards. We are working closely with AMD to rectify these issues as quickly as possible," Rocksteady added on Steam.

Indeed, over on Valve's platform, the issues reported by players have been numerous, leading to some very negative reviews. We liked it, but then we played it on PlayStation 4 - head here for our review.
