Battlefield Hardline beta Requirements

Hours ahead of the Battlefield Hardline beta, Origin has published the game's minimum and recommended system requirements. They're a little more demanding than the Battlefield 4 specs: you can no longer run the game on a 32-bit version of Windows, and you'll need double the hard drive space, too.
While the minimum specs below will apply for the final build, EA warns those running 4GB of RAM or less that they may encounter issues with the beta, as optimisation has yet to be completed for lower-end PCs. You're advised to "close all other applications while playing the game".
The specs:

CPU: INTEL QUAD-CORE CPU, AMD SIX-CORE CPU
