Sega and Relic Entertainment's Dawn of War 3 is fast approaching is recently revealed April 27 launch date. Its multiplayer component is where it gets serious, reckons Tom, and the incoming fantasy RTS has now announced the minimum and recommended system requirements you'll need to make its epic wars sparkle.

As per the developer's official site, here's what you'll need to conquer its battlefields:
Minimum war
- 64-bit Windows 7
- 3GHz i3 or equivalent
- 4GB RAM
- 1GB nVidia GeForce 460 or AMD 6950 or equivalent DirectX 11 video card
Recommended WAAAGH!
- 64-bit Windows 10
- 3GHz i5 or equivalent
- 8GB RAM
- 2GB nVidia GeForce 770 or AMD 7970 or equivalent DirectX 11 video card
