A creator managed to run Battlefield 6 on a 12-year-old AMD FX-9590 CPU, paired with an RX 5700 GPU, achieving playable frame rates at 786p resolution. Surprisingly, the experiment revealed that only SecureBoot, not TPM, is necessary for the Javelin anti-cheat system. Despite the outdated hardware, the game ran smoothly on the older CPU, showcasing the game's optimization. While there were some performance limitations and input lag, the gameplay was still impressive given the hardware's age and lack of TPM support.
